Iman, CEO of IMAN Cosmetics, has entered the fashion game with the launch of IMAN's GLOBAL CHIC Collection, an accessories line done exclusively for HSN. Here, she shares the inspiration behind each item and provides tips on how you can rock her collection like a global star.

Iman for GLOBAL CHIC

It's a cold rainy afternoon in mid-town Manhattan and Iman, CEO of IMAN Cosmetics, is standing sparkling bright like a New Year's celebration. She wears a gold sequined Tory Burch cardigan that covers an American Apparel white tee tucked inside Earnest Sewn boot-cut jeans.

Not the exact picture of a mogul.

But then again, Iman, wife of rock star David Bowie, and mother of two, is no typical businesswoman.

The makeup maven who dared to place the beauty of women of color on a high pedestal with formulations that are not only spot-on in regards to complementing the subtle shades of light, medium and deep complexions, but are also technologically sound, is ready to bet on another chance: That women everywhere would want a piece of her personal style.

As a card-carrying member of the fashion world's gliterrati, and the longtime muse of designers such as Yves St. Laurent, Versace, Donna Karan and Calvin Klein, certainly Iman is more than qualified to place her diamond-laced fingers into the fashion game.

Gathered today to share this new venture -- IMAN'S GLOBAL CHIC -- an accessories line inspired by her real-life gems done exclusively for HSN, and most retailing for between $49.95 and $129.95, the Somalian icon glows while sharing the intimate stories of each item's inspiration.

Her excitement is contagious. This isn't a line pulled out of nowhere. It has history. Iman and David Bowie's history.

All items are available on HSN.com, starting on Saturday, December 15.
Tune-in to HSN on Saturday December 15th at 8 p.m. and on Sunday, December 16 at 9 a.m. and at 6 p.m. to see Iman and more of her GLOBAL CHIC collection.
