She may be best known for her acting and singing talents, but Madonna is to try her hand in the luxury fashion market following a new deal.
The 51-year-old will be designing sunglasses for Dolce & Gabanna, which will come complete with a trademark M on the arm.
Speaking to Women's Wear Daily, the designers commented: "We're so excited. This further strengthens our relationship with Madonna and it was a very constructive experience for us."
They described Madonna as "very exacting" and said her professionalism will ensure the partnership is a success.
Fans of luxury fashion brands will be able to get their hands on the shades from D&G stores and at the Sunglasses Hut as of May this year.
It was recently reported that Madonna was researching her latest role thoroughly by penning a letter to the Queen to find out more about the era of Edward VIII.
