About eight years after she won Miss Malaysia, Cindy Chen is all set to launch her own fashion line.

'It was a childhood dream,' says the beauty queen about her new role.

The collection will be 'unisex' and will feature T-shirts, jackets, tank tops and accessories.

Revealing more details, Chen said told Star2.com, 'Instead of following seasons (like other fashion labels), we will have a storyline. We will work around a concept and do crossover projects with other artistes or designers. Since I like to keep changing all the time, the brand will not have a fixed style.'
