Manhattan Designers Create a Supergirl Line for Warner Brothers

supergirl2.JPGA few years ago, Tinkerbell got licensed out for a clothing line, famously hyped by Paris Hilton and fused on jewelry and cashmere sweaters at Kitson.

The collection was such a success that it spawned others: Tweety Bird got her own "fashion line" repped by Harrison & Shriftman and starring pink plastic flip flops. Disney Couture went on to create accessories for every Disney princess, ever.

And now Supergirl has entered the mix.

We hear the DC comic babe will star in her very own fashion line, created by a coven of New York's cutest designers, including Shoshanna Gruss and Laura Poretzky of Abaete. The idea is that a New York City woman is basically like a Supergirl, zooming from one place to another with incredible speed and strength.

Apparently, bikinis and underwear will be included in the line.

AHEM. Supergirl (like Superman) is DC Comics, NOT Marvel.
My boyfriend works for Marvel, so this kind of stuff is constantly drilled into my head.

If it had to be DC, I'm surprised they went with Supergirl instead of Wonder Woman. Maybe they like the "girl" part?

Well, at least it's not Power Girl!
