ERIN WASSON is joining Rihanna's Styled To Rock television series. The former Victoria's Secret model and designer has been hired, alongside musician Pharrell Williams, as a mentor to the aspiring designers who will compete to dress Rihanna at an unnamed high-profile event.
"As a leading model and mainstay in the fashion industry, Erin's unapologetic approach to fashion and free-spirited style will give the 'Styled to Rock' designers invaluable insight," said Salaam Coleman Smith, president of Style Media. "With Rihanna as executive producer and Pharrell and Erin as mentors, our designers will gain incredible experience while also being challenged in new ways as they compete to earn the title of America's next trendsetting designer."
Wasson has good credentials for the role, having launched her own jewellery line, Low Luv, in March 2010. She turned her hand to ready-to-wear in January 2011 by teaming up with chic French label Zadig & Voltaire to design a collection, which offered a more refined take on the model's rock 'n' roll-inspired style.
The show is due to air in the US later this year. Rihanna will continue as executive producer
