NASCAR Superstar Danica Patrick Kicks Athleisure I

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla., Jan. 04, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Entertainment and lifestyle retailer HSN is gearing up to launch Warrior by Danica Patrick , a functional, yet highly fashionable and edgy athleisure line created by the professional race car driver, model and advertising spokeswoman, on January 4th.  

While she’s used to a fast-paced lifestyle on the track, Danica enjoys a fashionable and fit way of life, off the track. Her first-ever apparel collection, created in partnership with HSN and G-III Apparel Group, reflects her strong, confident, and health-conscious approach to her daily life. What could be considered the foundation of every woman’s closet, the line consists of leggings, hoody jackets, easy tees, sports bras and more, that allow women to show off their cool sense of style without compromising on fashion or comfort.

“I’ve been interested in fashion and clothes since I was a little girl,” said Patrick. “And for the last 10 years I’ve dreamed about having my own clothing line, but I was waiting for the perfect situation with the perfect partner. When HSN and G-III came along, I knew it was the right time. It’s been exciting seeing the Warrior line come together. We’ve created what I believe is really the perfect athleisure collection that transitions through your day, no matter what you’re doing.”  

A hybrid of athleisure and true performance wear, Danica’s goal was to create a line of chic sportswear. To achieve this goal, G-III signed an exclusive license with Danica to design and produce the Warrior by Danica Patrick line. The active, on-the-go styles focus on detail and shape, ensuring that every piece not only looks and feels great, but maximizes function.

“Danica is a visionary who is constantly pushing boundaries and doing the unexpected. Working with her to create Warrior by Danica Patrick for HSN showed us just how committed she is to breaking the mold,” noted Vanessa Dusold, SVP, Apparel & Accessories, HSN. “Danica’s dedication transcends racing to fashion and style, and we were so thrilled to tap her creative mind to create this dynamic collection of athleisure wear.” 

Danica will appear on HSN throughout the day today and her collection is available via digital at HSN.com .  For more information, visit www.HSN.com (keywords: Danica Patrick) or join the conversation @HSN on Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest.
