Quirky Fashion Designer Erin Fetherston To Create Hotels?

While Jay-Z's hotelier plans have been put on hold, quirky fashion designer Erin Fetherston will be doing a co-branded hotel in the future.

A tipster let us know that Fetherston's hotel plans aren't quite firmed up but that she is seriously looking to do a Philippe Starck-SLS Hotels kind of collaboration. There's a chance too that the hotels will debut in Asia rather than stateside. And of course, this is all still a few years off.

Fetherston is a San Fran-born, Paris-living fashion designer known for her whimsical feminine or "sweetly girlish" looks. She's also a prolific collaborator. She's already done a capsule collection for Target and Blackbook said she was working on a deal with a chocolate-biscuit company. She even collaborated with Kirsten Dunst (a huge follower of her fashions) on a short movie.

This is actually a collaboration we would go crazy for. We picture something akin to the Marcel Wanders-inspired, white fluffy dreamland that is Mondrian South Beach, given Fetherston's fashion designs. And it has to be better than the hotel Pamela Anderson is doing in Dubai, right?
