Holly Star Natalie Portman has collaborated with a fashion firm to launch a line of vegan footwear.The Natalie Portman Collection will be made in partnership with specialty shoe retailer Te Casan and the actress' stylist Kate Young and will feature 20 pairs of limited-edition, hand-crafted designs that are completely animal-friendly, with a price tag of about $200 each.The star says, "As a vegan, I don't wear leather, fur or feathers. Shopping for clothes hasn't proved too difficult, but finding chic footwear has definitely been a challenge." Yaniv Shirazi, Te Casan president, adds, "We met with Kate and Natalie to discuss what Natalie was looking to do and it was immediately clear that this would be a fantastic collaboration. "There are so few animal-free collections out there, and Natalie's ideas were really great, in terms of style." The line is expected to debut in stores February 1 with 100 percent of proceeds benefiting The Nature Conservancy, an organization dedicated to protecting the environment.
