Houston chef launches chefwear line for women

HOUSTON Stacy Crowe-Simonson, executive chef of Chez nous has created a new line of professional chefwear for women.

The "La Cuisiniere" line is available in a blend of fabrics and styles and ranges in price from $75 to $95.

"Today's female professional chef sweats, swears, bleeds and gives everything they have in the kitchen, just like men do," said Crowe-Simonson. "Now, they don't have to dress like them anymore! They should not have to bear the weight of baggy chef pants and over-starched burlap jackets that fit a man just right, but do nothing for a woman. A female chef is elegant, tough and passionate; she deserves to feel good and look stylish in La Cuisiniere practical apparel."
