Michelle Rodriguez to launch clothing line

Michelle Rodriguez, who starred in the hit TV series “Lost,” is working on a clothing line inspired by world cultures, The Associated Press informs.

The 29-year-old actress says she plans to travel to a dozen countries, including China and Brazil, to ''study people, social classes, history, culture'' before finishing her designs.

She made the comments on the Sony channel's ''It's Midday in China'' program that aired across Latin America this week.

''The company that I want to start should be ethnic,'' Rodriguez said in Spanish. ''I think there is a (growing) awareness and people are opening their eyes about the world and the environment.''

Rodriguez said she hopes her travels will also help her come to know the potential market for her clothing line, to be named Ishkadada.

Meanwhile, she plans to continue her acting career. Her film credits include “S.W.A.T.,” “Girlfight” and “Blue Crush.”
