Fans of Dolly Parton‘s signature blond bouffant will soon be able to get the look for themselves.
The country superstar, 73, told Elle that wigs will be part of her upcoming lifestyle empire, along with clothing, home goods and other beauty products.
“I’m going to do it. I’m going to get there,” Parton told the magazine. “It’s one of my dreams — the makeup, hair, and wigs, clothes, all of that sort of thing.”
Wigs have always been a signature of Parton’s, helping her achieve her trademark ultra-teased and curled blond locks. “I don’t always wear them in my daily life, but I always still pouf up my hair. I still like to have that flashy hair,” she explained.
“When I’m around home, I wear my little scrunchies, but I always put on some makeup and fix my own hair as cute as I can fix it. Wigs are just so handy. I’m so busy, and I have so many choices. I never have a bad hair day, and that’s a good thing.”
Despite her fashion-industry ambitions, Parton never considered herself a style icon until her likeness popped up recently on the Gucci runway, as inspiration for Reese Witherspoon’s Draper James clothing line and as a visual reference for stars like Kacey Musgraves, Katy Perry and more.
“To me, that’s still one of the funniest things, when people say that I am a fashion icon,” she said. “I just always thought people thought I was so gaudy. I am! I’m flashy, and I’m flamboyant.”
