Debuting at Dillard's and other department stores nationwide this fall, the Bootheel Trading Co. apparel collection is a group of love-worn, easy-going jeans and tops inspired by Sheryl Crow's distinctive style. The collection goes beyond jeans and tees to offer women the laid-back, luxe lifestyle that Sheryl personifies at an affordable price. Retail price points for the Bootheel Trading Co. collection range from $25 for tops to $65 for jeans.

The debut collection will be comprised of a selective offering of mid-priced jeans, denim jackets and tops evoking a vintage Americana aesthetic, reminiscent of Ms. Crow's distinctive style.
