Jeff Bezos backs Sydney Sweeney's new lingerie line brand for global fashion success: Report
Source: Instagram Sydney Sweeney is expanding her business empire—this time into the lingerie industry. The Euphoria star is launching her own lingerie label, and she's not doing it alone. As per a report by Fox Business, the project is backed by none other than Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, his partner Lauren Sánchez, and major private equity firm Coatue. With industry insiders projecting potential earnings of up to $20 million, this move could further skyrocket Sweeney's already impressive financial portfolio and position her as a serious player in the fashion and celebrity business world. Sydney Sweeney's lingerie brand backed by Jeff Bezos eyes billion-dollar status With an estimated net worth of $40 million, Sydney Sweeney is already among the wealthier young actors in Hollywood. Her latest venture could raise that figure to $60 million or more by 2027, especially if her lingerie brand becomes a commercial success. Unlike past fashion collaborations—like her 2023 swimwear partnership with Frankies Bikinis, or endorsement campaigns with Armani Beauty and Miu Miu—this line is entirely her own creation and vision. This step signals a shift from influencer deals to true ownership in the fashion space. The involvement of Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez adds a level of business credibility and financial muscle that few celebrity startups can match. Their support, along with backing from Coatue, a well-established private equity firm, suggests serious ambition behind the brand. If successful, the brand could emulate the likes of Rihanna's Savage X Fenty or Kim Kardashian's SKIMS, both of which have become billion-dollar empires. Jeff Bezos' next big investment is Sydney Sweeney's lingerie brand As reported, the lingerie line is also being backed by Ben Schwerin, a partner at private equity giant Coatue. The firm recently announced a new investment fund focused on high-growth companies, with initial capital commitments totaling $1 billion from the family offices of Jeff Bezos and Dell Technologies founder Michael Dell, according to The Wall Street Journal. Jeff Bezos has already made major investments across multiple industries including tech, healthcare, media, aerospace, and finance—mostly through his venture capital arm, Bezos Expeditions, and holding company Nash Holdings, which owns The Washington Post. His latest support of Sweeney's lingerie brand signals a notable shift into fashion and celebrity-led startups. While this lingerie brand marks her first venture as a founder, Sweeney is no stranger to business deals. She has collaborated with several major brands, including HeyDude footwear, Bai beverages, Laneige skincare, and Kérastase. In 2023, she launched a successful swimwear line with Frankies Bikinis, and more recently, she made headlines for a cheeky marketing campaign with Dr. Squatch—selling limited-edition men's soap made with her own bathwater. Other celebrity lingerie brands that have set the bar Sweeney's venture follows in the footsteps of several celebrity-led lingerie lines that have redefined the market: Rihanna – Savage X Fenty Launched in 2018, Savage X Fenty became a cultural movement by embracing body diversity and inclusivity. Valued at over $1 billion, it's seen as a blueprint for celebrity-driven success. Kim Kardashian – SKIMS Originally shapewear-focused, SKIMS expanded into full fashion territory. It's now worth $4 billion (as of 2023, per Forbes), with products spanning men's loungewear, bras, and more. Rosie Huntington-Whiteley – Marks & Spencer The British model's lingerie line with M&S, launched in 2012, remains a bestseller. Its timeless appeal and celebrity branding have ensured long-term success. Heidi Klum – Intimissimi The former Victoria's Secret Angel launched a globally recognized label, available in over 100 countries, with affordable luxury designs that quickly gained traction. Maura Higgins – Ann Summers The Love Island star's bold collection sold out in under 24 hours, with a $670,000 deal in hand. Her youthful approach injected fresh energy into the classic brand. Sydney Sweeney's new venture related FAQs Is Sydney Sweeney launching her own lingerie brand? Yes, according to The Sun, Sydney Sweeney is developing her own lingerie line backed by major investors. When will the collection be released? There is no confirmed launch date yet. The line is still under development. Is Sydney Sweeney currently in a relationship?

After weeks of build-up and sneak peaks of the socialite wearing the pieces on vacation, Jenner's swimwear line with Frankies Bikinis has launched. A collaboration between Jenner's brand Khy, and Frankies, the line features bikini tops and bottoms, mini dresses, and coordinating separates, for time both in the water and on land. Inspired by vintage lingerie and bombshell swimsuits, the line is decidedly sensual in nature. 'It's not about being overly sexy, but about creating silhouettes that make you feel confident and lifted,' Francesca Aiello, founder of Frankies, told Elle. Jenner asserts the same, explaining, 'when you feel comfortable and supported, your confidence shines through.' Kylie Jenner wearing the Cherish Push Up Bikini Top and Enzo Bikini Bottoms / Image: The collaboration champions fun and expression, with mix and match pieces sure to cater to all tastes. Polka dots, lace, leopard print, and satin; these re-emergenging trends all work together in these pieces to create 'the perfect mix of sweet and sexy,' as Jenner puts it. A focal point of the launch also includes the introduction of the brand's Cloud Cups, which re-invent the classic push-up cup for something more modern and comfortable, yet just as buxom in its results. This collaboration comes shortly after the brand's extremely successful collection with Bella Hadid, which was inspired by the model's Western style. These back-to-back collections continue to show that Frankies has long mastered the art of taking sartorial elements we love the most from our favourite celebrities, and morphing them into the perfect summer looks. You can now shop the collection here.

Kylie Jenner Raises The Heat In Bikini-Coded Looks From Her New Swimwear Collection
Kylie Jenner is making a splash (again) this monsoon season. This time with her enviable bikini collection. The Keeping Up with the Kardashians star's latest collaboration between her brand Khy Swimwear and Frankies Bikinis, another popular swimwear company is fire. She posted a bunch of pictures on Instagram, offering a peek into the vibrant designs from the line, which was launched on July 16. Kylie Jenner's Bikini Looks First up, Kylie Jenner emanates a fiery vibe in a leopard-printed bikini featuring halter-neck, adjustable string ties in black. She paired this Nick Satin top with matching Mackenzie Satin Bottoms that came with a low-rise cut and skimpy coverage. The adjustable string ties contributed to an element of functionality. Red is the colour of all seasons, as proved by Kylie Jenner once more. She weaved a tale of bold allure in a Romance Satin Top constructed in satin swim fabric. Shirring details, coupled with halter-neck ties and a back clasp, delivered oomph and panache in equal measure. The knotted bow at the centre stole the show and rightfully so. Ruched patterns and thin string ties in an identical crimson hue comprised the mid-rise bottoms. Next, Kylie Jenner left fans swooning in a flattering navy blue triangle bikini top with white polka dots. Back ties added to the flair and thin straps plunging into a scalloped hem served pizzazz. Matching thongs with drawstrings on either side screamed risque from a mile and a half away. The final bikini avatar in the carousel made Kylie Jenner look like a vision in white. The layered bikini top had a pretty ruffled neckline with pearly polka dot prints dominating the number. She teamed it up with V-shaped bottoms featuring a low-rise style. As per Khy's official website, the collection is co-designed by Kylie Jenner and Frankies Bikinis founder Francesca Aiello. The teeny-weeny silhouettes draw their inspiration from "bombshell silhouettes and vintage intimates". Each piece has a dreamy and delicate finish with lace trim and satin, dotted with sweet bow details.

A-lister lingerie rich list revealed – from billion dollar empires to Sydney Sweeney's £7.5m payday within 2 years
One A-lister's launch famously sold out on merchandises within just 10 minutes BRA-VO A-lister lingerie rich list revealed – from billion dollar empires to Sydney Sweeney's £7.5m payday within 2 years Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) WITH the global lingerie market set to reach a staggering £105.8 billion by 2030, it's little wonder why celebrities are pulling out all the stops and launching their own lingerie lines. Sydney Sweeney is the latest star rumoured to be venturing into this lucrative market, reportedly with the backing of Amazon billionaire Jeff Bezos. 21 Sydney Sweeney is rumoured to be launching a lingerie line Credit: Frankies Bikinis 21 Rihanna has her own lingerie line Savage X Fenty Credit: Savage X Fenty 21 Hailey Bieber in Victoria's Secret Icon campaign Credit: The Mega Agency The 27-year-old actress, who was not previously friends with Jeff or his wife Lauren Sanchez, 55, appears to have won them over after attending their wedding in Venice, Italy. They have now "invested" in her new venture, according to Us Weekly. A source told the publication that the Emmy-nominated actress is 'launching a lingerie line very soon' and that it has been a 'huge project for her and something she's been working on for the last year.' According to Puck, the lingerie line is being supported by Ben Schwerin, a partner at private equity firm Coatue. Coatue itself received a $1 billion (£970 million) investment from Bezos and fellow tech titan Michael Dell. Celebrity publicist Emma Bunning, founder of On The Box Talent, believes Sydney could be set to earn 'around £7.5 million over the next two years' from this lingerie deal. 'Ordinarily, celebrity-endorsed brand deals would see the talent earn an upfront signing bonus combined with a stake of the equity and a percentage of net profits,' she explains. 'For Sweeney, this could look like a £3.75 million signing bonus with profit shares of around £1.5 million a year.' Back in April 2023, Sydney also had her own collection with Frankies Bikinis. Emma continues: 'Attention would certainly have been paid to how successful this was before serious investment would be made by Bezos. Top 5 Controversial Celebrity Family Moments 'If the brand sees huge returns quickly, her earnings could skyrocket even further, potentially reaching the £15 million bracket within a few years. 'She already commands a healthy income from previous endorsements with Laneige Skincare, Armani Beauty, Kerastase Haircare, Miu Miu and her recent limited-edition soap bar with Dr Squatch. 'But given that this will be her own brand, and with high-level backing, it's likely to be her greatest earner yet.' With an already estimated net worth of £30 million, Emma believes this money-spinner could see Sydney topping the £45 million bracket by 2027. By July 2023, Kim's stake, estimated at 35%, was worth roughly $1.3 billion Emma Bunning 'Celebrity-backed brand deals have turned other stars into billionaires, such as Rihanna with Savage X Fenty, which launched in 2018 and sold out within a month." Sydney is just the latest to join this exclusive club. Here's a glance at the other celebrities who've successfully entered the lingerie game...

Branding and culture expert Nick Ede previously commended Rihanna's successful creation of the lingerie line, noting its inclusive nature and the highly profitable subscription-based business model.
