Emma Watson to work her fashion magic on Alberta Ferretti

She's starring in the blockbuster movie of the year, attends an Ivy league US University, and was a hit when she became the face of Burberry last year.

Now it seems Emma Watson is developing a reputation as a fashion powerhouse, as she so impressed the industry with her clothing line for Fair Trade label People Tree, she is now set to create an organic collection with Italian designer Alberta Ferretti.
Watson says the collection will be 'classic' with a 60s style.

A future in fashion: Emma Watson was invited to create a clothing line with Alberta Ferretti, following the success of her collaboration with People Tree

'We are doing an organic clothing range. I can't reveal the name yet but there will be more information about it soon,' she told US Magazine.com.

'She wrote to me and said, 'I saw what you did with People Tree and I think it's a great idea and will you do something with me?' she added.
'I will put it out there that I will work for anyone for free if they are prepared to make their clothing fairtrade organic.'

The star is currently studying at Brown University and has admitted that she finds life as a student 'liberating' in comparison to the gruelling schedules while filming the wizard franchise, particularly the latest installment Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.

'It was so liberating. I'd be smiling to myself and friends would say, 'Emma, what's wrong?' and I'd say, 'I'm just happy'. I take pleasure in the smallest thinks. Like, I'm going to wake up at 10 o'clock if I want to. Or, I'm going to eat a sandwich now.

'I have such a structure when I'm working on Potter. I get told what time I gets picked up. I get told what time I can eat, when I have time to go to the bathroom. Every single second of my day is not in my power.'

Watson has said that she's unsure whether she'll continue acting now the Harry Potter series has ended, and her latest venture has left many wondering whether she'll be swapping movies for a career in fashion.
