Proud Gleek? Celebrate the Emmy Nods With Macy’s New Glee Clothing Line

The new hit Fox television show Glee is the most talked about and first-of-its-kind musical show to hit the airwaves. Yesterday, the show picked up a huge 19 Emmy nominations including Best Comedy Series,  Best Actor in a Comedy Series for Matthew Morrison, and Best Actress in a Comedy Series for Lea Michelle.

If you haven’t seen an episode or two yourself, the series capitalizes on the virtually untapped musical theater television market.

With all of the buzz surrounding Glee, Macy’s wasted no time collaborating on the overnight sensation to create a new clothing line. Macy’s has been really stepping up the collaborations recently with Madonna’s Material Girl line, and while Gleeks may not be as rabid as Twilight’s Twihards, the line is surely a smart move to further draw in a younger audience.  The screen-printed tee-shirts and hoodies range in price from $19.99 to $34.99 and will hit shelves this August. {Stylelist}

While the line is part of Macy’s push to up the cool factor with high school and college shoppers, Emma Pillsbury has picked up a few style fans who enjoy the J.Crew-esque bow blouses, cardigans and pencil skirts the fictional counselor wears. There’s even a blog – What Would Emma Pillsbury Wear?, that pits episode style choices against one another. With more than 1200 Facebook fans, perhaps we’ll even get some inspired womenswear pieces in the future.

Even if it’s only tees for now, the Emmys will be broadcast August 29th and the show returns in September. The timing for a bit of fan fashion couldn’t be better.
