Hilary Swank to create own athletic fashion collection

Oscar-winning actress Hilary Swank is to launch her own athletic fashion collection.

The actress has teamed up with the DMA Designers Management Agency to develop a concept for an apparel range with an athletic bend. She wanted the line to have a more sporty feel, because of her background as a gymnast and love of comfortable clothing.

Hilary and the agency will be interviewing fashion designers to work with the star on the collection.

While she is set to design her own fashion range, earlier this year Hilary admitted to being on a mission to find lots of dresses to wear to the premieres of her film 'Conviction'.
