Avril Lavigne's Feminine Clothes Range

Avril Lavigne wants her new fashion line to be tight-fitting.

The 'Girlfriend' singer launched her clothing collection, Abbey Dawn, on Monday and revealed she wanted the designs to be as feminine as possible.

She said: "I have a very particular style. I want it to be available to a lot of girls, and I want it to be affordable.

"What's really important to me is that everything fits well and is well-made, so I try everything on and approve it all.

"I'm making sure that I think people in their 20s are going to wear it because it's going to be a sexy fit, not just, 'Oh, T-shirts and hoodies.'

"The hoodies are slimming. It's not a thick, bulky material."

The range - which caters for all age groups - is named after Avril's childhood nickname and she says it was inspired by her own style.

She added: "It has a lot of hot pinks and blacks and stars and purple and zebra. Basically, everything I wear."
