The Confidence leathergoods collection is soon to be launched at Manchester and Hamburg airports

US celebrity Paris Hilton’s new collection of handbags, purses, suitcases and key rings is to be launched at Manchester and Hamburg airports. The Confidence leathergoods range is already available in eight domestic locations in Asia, with prices ranging from €50 to €150 ($73 to $221), and will be available at The Nuance Group’s Fashion Gallery store at Manchester airport terminal one from the end of September (pictured below).

The collection was created by Hilton in partnership with Danish designers and was unveiled earlier this month in Copenhagen. Hilton said on the occasion that she expects the range to be available in 400 outlets worldwide, with the Middle East and Asia among the next targets.

Paris Hilton Handbags & Accessories vice-president of business development and creative director Jens Peter Friss told DFNIonline that the Confidence range will be rolled out to international airports worldwide in 2009. The company will exhibit the collection at this year's TFWA World Exhibition in Cannes.
