Amy Winehouse - proceeds from clothing line to go to charity

Amy Winehouse had collaborated with designer Fred Perry on a clothing line before her death on July 23. The status of the two collections was uncertain after she passed away.

Her father Mitch has said that he intends for Fred Perry to continue to release the items that his daughter worked on, and that proceeds would go to the charity he's setting up to help those in need of rehabilitation get affordable and timely help.

The Amy Winehouse Foundation will get the proceeds - and will apparently be based in her London home - with the collections released this autumn and next spring.

Mitch told WWD:

"When Fred Perry came to us to ask what we would like to do with the new collection it was natural to continue.

"Amy loved working on both collections and would want them to be made available."

Do you think it's a fitting way to remember Amy and raise cash to help others?
