Too Little Too Late? Shereé Whitfield Bashed for Continuing to Tease Clothing Line with No Clear Release Date

Posted byBy Kiersten Willis | Published on: CommentsComments (0)

Shereé Whitfield is plowing ahead to get her She by Shereé clothing line into gear and has dropped a new set of promo photos giving fans a glimpse of the apparel — joggers and all.

However, some have continued to make fun of the former “Real Housewives of Atlanta” star for her delayed release of the line.

“SLAY SIS! 😍 Congrats to our OG boo #ShereeWhitfield on her #SheBySheree athleisure 2019 Spring/Summer collection coming soon! Shout out to the amazing @mrdblanks for these shots! 👏🏾 #RHOA,” a housewives fan account captioned a set of images for Whitfield’s revamped clothing line.

Whitefield has long promised the apparel will be released in September, initially stammering about the debut during the April RHOA season 10 reunion.

“Joggers, it’s more lifestyle. I said I’m doing joggers. Lifestyle, athletic, yeah, lifestyle,” Whitfield said of the look. “Probably more September, that is spring, summer. September show — spring, summer.”

But September came and went and fans have still not been able to purchase and clothes from She By Shereé. This is even after a website was launched in support of the brand following Whitfield dropping a controversial teaser for her items.

The constant uncertainty surrounding the line has led several fans to react poorly to the newly released photos.

“Are these actually her clothes or did she swing by local boutiques at the shopping mall and throw things together she wants for her collection?”

“Now we done waited 10 years for some sweats?!”

“🤔🤔🤔🤔 Who gonna be wearing that shit during spring/summer, especially in hot ass Georgia 🤣.”

“I’m TIRED of these She by Sheree PHOTOSHOOTS!!! Just show me a functioning website & I’ll order something for ‘GP.’ Been waiting on this damn line for ELEVEN YEARS. LITERALLY!!! She was introduced to us as ‘the woman who had the fashion show, with NO FASHIONS’ 😒🥵”

Still, some fans praised the shots.

“I am loving them 😍😍😍.”

“@shereewhitfield serving looks. Keep winning dear 🙂”

“It always pays to wait, patient is the key.. awesome outfits @shereewhitfield congratulations.”

Still independent.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
