It seems like Suri Cruise could be following in her mum Katie's footsteps and designing a fashion line, if reports are to be believed.
Ever since she could walk, the fashion choices of little Suri Cruise have been analysed to the nth degree - so much so that a satirical blog, Suri's Burn Book offering her imaginary - slightly bitchy - fashion commentary on other celebrity tots became an online sensation.
And now, at just seven years old, Suri could be dressing her fellow stylish celeb kids - having reportedly signed a £1.5 million deal for her own line, named Suri.
A source told The Sun that Suri was "serious about clothes" and a line was suggested instead of a fashion blog because she was "talking about specific designs" to her family and friends. Katie Holmes (who has her own fashion line with her former stylist, Holmes & Yang) will apparently help to contribute to the collection, which will include clothes and accessories.
The source continued that 'This is a nice hobby for her, it's certainly not going to take over her life. Most girls dream of being able to make their own clothes, this just means her drawings will now become a reality'.
OK, I have a few questions about this. Aside from the fact that Suri is certainly a well-dressed celebrity child - is anyone else slightly bemused by the fact that a) A seven-year-old could be "serious" enough to ask to design her own fashion line and b) That a kid so young would have the writing abilities to create a blog?
I remember telling my mum I'd be dressing myself one weekend when I was seven - and it involved dog print leggings and a corduroy pair of dungarees paired with jelly shoes - with a tutu and giant My Little Pony headband added in for good measure. Suri is either a fashion prodigy - or being steered in that direction by those capitalising on her 'child style icon' title to make a successful fashion line.
Also, if Suri Cruise if going to start designing clothes, which cool celeb kids are next? Harper Beckham (with mummy's help, natch)? Shiloh Jolie-Pitt (tomboy style would feature heavily)? Blue Ivy Carter (they already tried to trademark her name, so it could be on the cards)?
