Jessica Simpson - Jessica Simpson Collection
Jessica Simpson's success as a side hustler has definitely outpaced her status as a music singer and reality television star. While she is still undecided if Chicken of The Sea is tuna or chicken, the strength of her brand is undeniably strong.
Simpson collaborated with the Camuto Group to produce a shoe collection in 2005. The first sales of the range eventually contributed to the growth of her brand. According to Market Watch, Jessica Simpson has items in 31 distinct categories, including handbags, clothes, jewelry, perfumes, and home. Jessica Simpson's items are available at a variety of retail locations, including Macy's, Nordstrom, Dillard's, and Belk, as well as online. The brand's revenues reached $1 billion in 2014.
These figures blow Simpson's initial venture into branding out of the water. Dessert, a range of delectable beauty products that includes lipgloss, body mist, body shimmer, whipped body cream, and bubble baths, debuted in 2004. It was sold at Sephora until it was removed from the menu in 2006. Perhaps its downfall was the result of a lawsuit. It might also have been personal issues related to her divorce from Nick Lachey. Fortunately, Simpson's subsequent business efforts exceeded everyone's expectations.
