Robbie Williams launched his own fashion line

Robbie Williams launched his own fashion line by following in the footsteps of British singer Liam Gallagher.

The star for Take That is set to debut men's range Farrell, named after his grandfather Jack Farrell, in September (11).

His first collection likes T-shirts, coats, a dinner jacket, a knitted cardigan and a flat-cap - and Williams is hoping the garments will be a big hit.

Williams says of his grandfather, "It was very important to him that I was a man. The legacy of Jack is this brand. A man's brand. His version of being a man. Working class grit. That's where the integrity is. The integrity of the working class man, living a hard life well."

Williams did not design every piece of clothing approved. Brand's spokesperson, explains, "He is integrally involved and regularly comes to meetings."
