Fashionista Simmons has Style for series

By Gretta Parkinson

LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - Fashion entrepreneur and author Kimora Lee Simmons will add reality-TV star to her resume when her show debuts on the Style Network in the summer.

Tentatively titled "Kimora," the series chronicles the professional life of the former model, who juggles a business team of publicists, managers, creative directors and fashion designers while dealing with her two daughters at their home in New Jersey, where they are surrounded by nannies, chefs, drivers and stylists.

The St. Louis native began modeling as a teenager and has since written a book, "Fabulosity: What It Is and How to Get It," and developed a successful clothing line, Baby Phat. Her former husband is rap mogul Russell Simmons.
