Men's Fashion Gets a Stylish Heads Up!

LOS ANGELES, Feb. 7, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Charismatic funnyman Cedric "The Entertainer" brings his personal style to the MAGIC SHOW hosting a VIP preview reception on February 14th from 6-8:00pm, Mandalay Bay, 3rd Floor Meeting Room, South Seas C, for the debut of his designer WHO CED? hat line.

Cedric's universal appeal, versatility, and tremendous career successes spanning television, live performances, and film have solidified his standing as one of the premiere entertainers in the world. From the Broadway stage to film directing and producing; from big screen to small screen; from network to cable; from performing for troops and Presidents alike, his award-winning brand is embraced internationally.

Known for topping-off his dapper style with a trademark elegant hat, Cedric's WHO CED? line offers customers a large selection of unique, timeless, designer hats to add a special dash of casual elegance to their own attire.

Commenting on his love of high-style and head wear, Cedric reflected, "My love of hats is tied to the image of the older guys at my high school always dressed up and sporting a hat to complete the look. It sort of spoke to going places, making money and the finer things in life." He went on to say, "The first hat I recall meaning something to me was a rolled brim, Kermit-the-frog- green, Dobbs felt hat. It was classy with simple lines and structure but even in the Hat Mecca of St. Louis it stood out and helped identify me as the uniquely funny dude in the green hat. As my career progressed the hat became my calling card and now I associate it with a certain lifestyle."

With the preliminary line consisting of a wide variety of Fedoras, News Boys, and High Caps and Beanies WHO CED? clients will be sporting timeless fashion. Topping off your wardrobe with a WHO CED? hat creates a complete ensemble...a finished look.

During recent fashion weeks, one thing was constant -- many looks were topped off with the wide-brimmed hat that had become one of the "it" accessories of the men's fall and winter 2011 shows.

Hollywood's fashionable stars and twentysomethings everywhere, inspired in part by such retro television shows as "Mad Men" and "Boardwalk Empire", are sporting traditional fedoras and classic hats with panache and style. WHO CED? takes that movement one step further by modernizing the look and adapting it for men "who make life happen" from all walks of life.

The WHO CED? motto: Work hard, Play Hard, and Be Good to Yourself...You Deserve It.

The WHO CED? mantra: hat is just an accessory?... It's a Lifestyle!

The WHO CED? line promotes personal style and limitless possibilities. It represents hard working men everywhere who want to be at the top of their game.

SO PUT A HAT ON IT...and let em know your coming.
