Queen Latifah has evolved from Afrocentric rapper to A-list actor and now she can add fashion designer to her evolutionary reaches, as the Queen recently announced she has partnered with shopping giant HSN to launch a line of apparel and accessories for women of all sizes.

Clothing items will be offered at prices under $100, with leather outerwear and bags between $170-$300. The line, which is set to debut August 27, will also feature a variety of other products including leggings, jeans and clip-on hair extensions.

"I wanted to make something size two and up. The truth is, we all would like to wear the same clothes. We all want to wear beautiful, fly clothes no matter what size you are, and so for me it was important to match with a company that understood and respected that ideal," Latifah told WWD.

The term plus-size will not be used in the line and Latifah says she waited specifically for the right partner that would allow her to reach a broader range of women. "I felt the marketplace didn't respect [larger women] in the way it should. I was not going to step out with a clothing line that didn't respect a fuller-figured woman or a curvaceous woman, and really all women."
