Miss She By Sheree, sometimes known as Sheree Whitfield, made her highly anticipated debut at the New York Fashion Show on Sunday.
Noticeably missing in attendance were Sheree’s fellow Atlanta housewives — Kandi, Kim, Nene, and Lisa. Trouble in paradise perhaps? “It’s just a working relationship,” Sheree explained. “We all have our different things that we’re doing. We’re not friends, but we are cordial.”
Stylist.com’s blog was able to get Sheree for a quick Q&A session, below are some excerpts -
StyleList: How does showing at Fashion Week in New York compare to having a show in Atlanta?
Sheree: There’s absolutely no comparison. Being in New York for Fashion Week is like the ultimate. This is the fashion capital of the world so for me to be able to preview my line here, I feel like I’m on cloud 9. I need to go home and pinch myself, you know what I’m saying? Of course, my ultimate goal is to come back in February during the shows and do a full out presentation on the runway.StyleList: How does your collection compare to Lisa’s “Closet Freak” collection?
Sheree: Yeah, right … [laughs]. It doesn’t compare. I wish her well and wish her all the best, but it doesn’t compare.
You gotta love the cattiness. The clothes look a bit upgraded from she debuted in Atlanta back in May.

If SHE likes it I loves it.lmao. I would not get caught wearing none of that Dominique Devereux Dynasty edition. I watched with my mom when I was a youngun. It reminds me of that without the pads.lol. She should stick to doing what sh does best. What is it that she does again?lmao.
I agree Jenny, I admire the fact that she is following her dream, but the line is not very appealing. Maybe with a little more practice and experience she’ll reach her goal.
The grey / silver getup looks like it is backwards to me. Like the models head is on backwards. It hurts my eyes.
I meant the suit type outfit with the big gold necklace and one black lace lapel…though some of the dresses look backwards too.
bitch please, i can get those kinds of clothes from express/BR at a cheaper price (with better style too)
Dont the models all look pissed off?
LOL they really do!
SORRY, Dear! Clearly NOT high fashion. Don’t embarrass yourself. Leave it to the professionals!
I don’t see anything that creative or different, the sewing or craftsmanship doesn’t look too professional. Sheree designed these and someone else made them, does she even know how to sew?
Is the fashion industry so hurting that anyone can show their line during fashion week in NYC? What happened to designers who eat, drank and slept fashion and struggled to get their clothes out there waiting for their break, and now if you have enough $$ you don’t have to be that struggling designer you can just buy onto the catwalk? Interesting, how REAL is that, Boo!
Stephanie, I like your point!
You must be kidding?!!! Her fashions are very dated. I wouldn’t buy anything she has designed. FInd something else to do Sheree…
sheree design she can’t draw or sew !!!!!!
News flash Sheree. T-A-C-K-Y!!!!
Ah, this shyt puts the UGH in ugly! The models either have big asses, no asses, or thick thighs. You’d look pissed off too if you had to wear this embarrassing crap down the runway during Fashion Week — how humiliating! Some of the outfits look like 1950’s brothel wear, but nothing is high fashion. This stuff looks like straight-off-the-rack clothing that you can buy at any Chico’s store nationwide.
LOL@Chico’s. hahaha.
And these designs are original how? RACHAEL, about that gray suit… first thing I noticed was that the skirt manages to make the runway model’s thighs look thunderous. That’s a feat in itself.
Astute observation, STEPHANIE. I’ve a feeling if Sheree could sew, we’d all know about it by now. She can’t draw, either. But the woman has IDEAS in her head and MONEY in her pocket, and that’s apparently all that counts to make it to Fashion Week.
I keep hearing Heidi, Tim, Nina, and Michael in my head giving their opinion on each piece… Uh oh. They don’t sound very happy.
Hahaha fauleigh!
I really didnt even notice her thighs! I cant get past the fact that it looks like the model just spun her head around exorcist style and it stuck that way. Something about it really creeps me out!
The fabric looks pretty bad too! I would LOVE, LOVE!!!! to hear the project runway folks critique this mess. Love too!
They should be special guests. As graceful as Sheree’s manners are, it would be a great show!
All I have to say is HOT MESS….and for the record Lisa`s clothing line looks a whole lot better….everybody does not know fashion
I have to agree w/ all of the comments except Dee Henry Lisa’s line was a hot miss too it, it wasn’t as dated but it was ugly
This CRAP look like it came straight from the 80’s PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE sit down and go back to what you were doing NOTHING !!!!!
A DAM MESS GURLLLLLL SHE NEEDS TO STOP PLAYING FORREAL SHE COULD HAVE WASTED THAT SIX FIGURES SOME DAM WHERE ELSE LOL
It’s not something I would buy, but at less she’s out there trying to make her dreams come true. Why not tell her what you would like to see instead of trying to beat her down. Keep doing you Sheree, and good luck.
Is this a fall collection? Her market must be Arizona and Texas. Only a few states could wear thesescraps past October. Sheree would have been better off coming out with a perfume for Walmart. Her line would work great at Rainbow. What’s up with the shoulder pads!She got the wrong Asian to sew these clothes. She by Dwight, I mean Sheree has no business calling Lisa’s clothes tacky. They both share the title.Sheree your set up on what a fashion show should look is good. The clothes are poor. Some of these women look like they probably busted the outfit getting it down the runway.Stop trying to sketch. Go to Joann Fabrics and by the real pattern. I’m glad Sheree didn’t have her hair is that crazy Rooster hairdo.LMAO!
Would SHE herself wear these clothes??? I doubt it. I don’t think they’d win on project runway. I wouldn’t be so critical if SHE didn’t think she was so hot!! Again proving money can’t buy you love or class.
SHEree, it’s a lot of haters out there so keep on keeping on with everything you do. Remember, sistah’s tend to hate confident black women; they’d prefer that you were poor with low self esteem and had a drug habit so don’t let the haters get to you.
Keep your head up!!!!!!!!
My eyes are positively bleeding, looking at this craptastic “collection.” The fabric looks unbelievably cheap, the construction sucks, and the models are scary.
It’s an unmitigated disaster. And it has nothing to do with “haters.” i respect women with self confidence and high self esteem WHO CAN FOLLOW THROUGH ON THEIR GRANDIOSE PROCLAMATIONS ABOUT HOW WONDERFUL THEY ARE. Sorry to yell, but emphasis is needed.
In my experience, the people with “class” are the ones who prove they have it by their actions, NOT the ones, like Sheree, who continually feel compelled to TELL everyone how much class they have. If you have it, you don’t need to tell people about it. It shows.
It doesn’t show with Sheree, because she ain’t got it.
And it’s embarrassing to see her do this. Find something you’re really good at, and work at it. For Sheree, fashion isn’t it.
Cheap Cheap Cheap — shiny – cheap – lace – cheap – my niece (5) could put a show together. She should go home and eat a job — and get over herself … horrible – embarassed for her
always thought she was a stuck up b****, her clothing line HORRIBLE
Wow, I am surprised her stuff is so cheap looking and just not anything special. I wouldn’t buy any of these or even try them on. Sheree seems to have taste at BUYING fashion, not at DESIGNING fashion. They are not the same….
Excuse me Monica, but DO NOT put those clothes off on Texas. Sorry Sheree but you need to start over. Maybe try fashion as a hobby not a career.
As a seamstress I could tell from the first trip to the lady that was sewing the clothes that this was going to be another disaster. A lot of people think they are designers and seamstress but they are not. She should give her money to a deserving designer like Michael Knight to help him get his line to the masses. It takes more than money to make it in the fashion world. If she is serious about making it in fashion she needs to go to school and learn what it takes. A lot of people show fashions during fashion week that doesn’t mean that they showed at Bryant Park! Sheree it takes time to get a collection together if you are serious about having a clothing line look inside your designer clothes and see how they are make, this is what you should expect your clothes to look like. You can’t cut corners. Do your research, going to New York for a seamstress does not guarantee that you will get quality craftsmanship.
Target here we come….Sorry, maybe the dollar store….Sad!!!!
so, here’s the deal. gigi i agree that there are haters and haters do what they do, “hate”, but let’s look at the facts. one of the writers commented about the designers out there who will do what it takes to make it. some have a gift for this, they invest time to go to school, they put in years as an intern, they get into the “nut and bolts” of the craft. sheree on the other hand has shown us that, that’s not what she intends to do to become a “true” success, a bought one maybe, but not tried and true. gigi my friend, it’s wonderful that sheree follows her dreams and wants to be a huge success. cool. but, the focus should be the clothes, not her ability to spend, spend $$ and be a socialite with a well known face and name here in the a-t-l, from what i gathered, she already had that. look, what else did she really do other than get paid after a bad marriage? (i don’t make lite of her divorce, that was unfortunate) but, hey uhh! remember the clothes, the fashion, the craft, i thought that was supposed to be her thing. last point. i agree her debut was a wonderful show, dwight had the lights, the music, the runway, poppin’, but when you really look at the clothes, i mean really look, they just don’t have “IT”. i just don’t think she’s going to last long as a designer. it’s not hating, it is what it is!!!!!!!!!!
..to piggy back on a statement made above…class is something you have or you don’t, can’t buy it. The line looks cheap and I expected more..never-the-less it is what it is..I am not a hater but I do have taste. I believe if you have a dream its fantastic but you must take all the steps to make your dream a realty by preparation. Sheree needs design school, if she really wants to pursue this as career, get the necessary tools and knowledge to make your product as best as it can be..don’t settle for medoicrity…
@jenny from the bronx – I had the same question. Apparently, (maybe not so much) Sheree was a successful fashion boutique owner/buyer in Atlanta that catered to the rich and famous (before she met her ex-husband) who wanted to start her “own” fashion line. It seems she stopped/sold the business after she married and had the idea to do her own thing instead. I think it was just kismet for her to start the line now using the lump sum from the divorce settlement and the publicity/visibility/cameras from the RHO-Atlanta show. Her ex fronted the money for this venture (as a loan I think). http://www.makli.com/she-by-sheree-clothing-line-005119/
@fauleigh – Remember, Michael Knight DID give her his opinion of her former fashion line. And NO, he wasn’t happy! I’ve seen pictures of him at her Atlanta premier/fashion show this year. He seemed happy enough in the pics. Not sure if it could be blamed on the alchohol.
Apparently I’m in the minority, but I DO like SOME of Sheree’s clothing (from both the Atlanta and NY shows). From the NY show pics I like the cream wide leg trouser with yellow pocketed halter (1st pic), the gold satin halter jumpsuit and canary yellow corseted bubble skirt mini dress (2nd pic), and the satin draped taupe shirt and royal blue bubble skirt (3rd pic). In the 4th pic, both fashions are (que Dwight) DREADFUL! The style, stitching, fit, adornment, EVERYTHING is just so NOT good! I couldn’t find a website for her line (neither could I for Closet Freak by Lisa Wu-Hartwell) so I don’t know what price point she plans to hit with this. But I do see this line fitting in nicely with some low-end urban (customers who’re more likely to know who she is) outlets. Sheree would do best to pair herself with a big name celebrity or big name designer (hopefully both) to get the right line out in the right way. Right now she is not a big enough celebrity or great enough fashion visionary (note I didn’t say designer) to sell or craft a fashion line. Since she has once proven herself to be a successful business owner/fashion buyer, perhaps she should channel some of her money/energy into creating an outlet for her own fashion line. Much like the 2nd winner of Project Runway did (forgot her name, she already had a store and a line before PR). If that’s successful, she could branch that out to other major urban markets. It’s not like any major retailers are buying her clothes to fill thier racks right now.
White women hatingB
i feel like i’ve seen half this stuff at forever21…for like a quarter of the price
