In late November, R&B Crooner Ne-Yo unveiled his new hat line at Saks Fifth Avenue at Phipps Plaza in Atlanta. The name of the hat line is called Francis Ellargo. Rolling out asked Ne-Yo why he wanted to create the line and he replied that he is known for wearing hats. And when he was in high school he would get into trouble for wearing them, but eventually the teachers let him slide because he refused to take his hats off, he said.
At the launch event at Saks fans and shoppers got to get 10 percent off of their hat purchases and the money was donated to his Compound Foundation. It was held on the upper level in the men’s section of the upscale store. In attendance were his fiance Monyetta Shaw and some of his artists. Check out the line of hats that were on display at the event. He even autographed hats for customers. Ne-Yo plans to launch a full line of new styles of hats in the new year. The hats retail for $125
