Jessica Simpson's fashion empire will take in more than $1 billion in 2011, RadarOnline.com has learned.
That will represent a stunning 25 percent increase over her 2010 gross and put the singer-turned-designer in the same financial company as Michael Kors and other far-more established fashion leaders. This according to a profile of Simpson upcoming in New York Magazine.
"I never thought I'd be some fashion mogul," Jessica told the mag on the eve of launching her new ready-to-wear and career separates lines.
