Eccentric soul star MACY GRAY is set to become the latest musician to launch a clothing line, under her real name NATALIE HINDS.

The ‘I TRY’, hit song artist is planning a retro fashion range she’s calling “Ghetto Chic”.

Chic, a term that is being used to describe the sexy, stylish women of today, is also considered a new era in fashion according to female site browsers of URB1.COM.

Gray will work with JILL SCOTT and BLACK EYED PEAS stylist NONJA (corr) McKENZIE on the new designs, which are set to hit upscale stores in the later months of 2005.

The singer targets DIANA ROSS as her muse for the new collection.

Other than fashion, Gray isn’t turning her back on her acting career, and wants to consider it another avenue she can persue in entertainment. The TRAINING DAY star will play an exotic dancing, burglar in KEIRA KNIGHTLEY’s new action movie DOMINO and Madam in OUTKAST’s coming movie musical tenatively named “Idle-while”.

Grays original, yet flamboyant style is not said to be the driving force behind designs for “Ghetto Chic”.

Macy’s line is expected to release details and possibly photos through URB1 Magazine, the Original Urban & Hip Hop Fashion Focused publication.
