Christie Brinkley launched a wig and extensions accessories line with HairUWear called Hair2Wear Christie Brinkley Collection. Over a year ago Michael Napolitano, president of HairUWear, approached Brinkley to partner on a collection of 10 wigs and nine hairpieces. “We wanted someone with a really heavy impact on fashion,” said Napolitano. “It started when I was doing 'Chicago' [the musical],” said Brinkley. “I thought it would be fun to leave the theater in a wig and it would be convenient and I wouldn't keep people waiting. I had so much fun with the products, I thought why should I keep this all to myself.”
