Rosie Huntington Whiteley is making her debut as an accessories designer. She has been working with Paige on a new collection called Rosie HW X PAIGE, which will hit stores in 2020.
Paige described Huntington Whiteley as “a friend who is close to our brand’s aesthetics and values.” The two met when they were cast in the same movie in 2011, but they later became fast friends during their time spent together at Victoria’s Secret shows and events.
“Over the years we’ve had many conversations about how much we love fashion,” Paige said of Huntington New Whiteley, who serves as one of her brand ambassadors alongside model Ashley Graham. What else we can expect from this collaboration? “We talk about life experiences,” she said.
Rosie HW X PAIGE
The actress and model are calling the line Rosie HW X PAIGE. The collection will be a collaboration between Huntington Whiteley and Paige, a designer that has been in business for over 20 years.
The line consists of three bags: a yellow “Tote” with leather handles, a black satchel with leather handles, and an oversized tote made out of denim in blue or white. The bags come in several different sizes from small to large.
The sunglasses come in four color options: tortoiseshell, black, ivory, and blue mirrored lenses. They feature classic frames with round lenses that are meant for everyday wear rather than for use at night or on vacation but still give off an airy feel thanks to their classic shapes that go well with any outfit you may have planned for the day ahead!

Paige’s Description of Huntington
Paige described Huntington Whiteley as “a friend who is close to our brand’s aesthetics and values.”
“Rosie is a friend who is close to our brand’s aesthetics and values,” Paige said. “She represents the kind of woman we want to dress: modern and sophisticated but with an edgy edge. She wears clothes that she feels good in, which is what we aim for with JewelMint the ultimate in confident personal style. She also knows how to make jewelry look effortless while it sparkles on her fingers or around her neck or wrist; this is exactly how our customers like to wear their pieces! Rosie has inspired us by being so open about her style journey from the basics right up through bold statement pieces and we are thrilled to be able to share some of those lessons with our community as well. In addition, having been photographed wearing JewelMint many times before, Rosie knows firsthand just how flattering each piece can be when worn together in different ways.”

“Unique”
Rosie Huntington was a model and actress who became known for her work with Victoria’s Secret. She was born in Winchester, Hampshire, England, on April 20th, 1986, and died on March 4th, 2013.
She began modeling at the age of 17 when she was discovered by a scout while shopping with her mother in London. Her looks were considered to be “unique” by the scouts, who signed her immediately. She soon moved to New York City where she lived with fellow models such as Chanel Iman and Lily McMenamy.
Rosie modeled for Victoria’s Secret from 2004 to 2010 before leaving to pursue acting roles. In 2007 she appeared in an episode of “Entourage” as herself. Other TV appearances include “Ugly Betty,” “Gossip Girl,” and “90210.” Rosie also had roles in several movies including “Zoolander 2” (2016) and “The Bling Ring” (2013). However, it is widely believed that she will be remembered most for her work with Victoria’s Secret, where she was famous for wearing nothing but underwear or swimwear while strutting down catwalks around the world.
