“I’m so excited about the launch of Roxy Hunt Couture - and Roxy is too! Roxy has been a clothes princess and fashion plate ever since she was a puppy. I’ve always dressed her in fun, whimsical outfits, and I even commissioned matching couture evening gowns for us to wear for the red carpet walk during the Daytime Emmys. It was this amazingly glamorous moment that inspired me to create the Roxy Hunt Couture Line.”

Crystal Hunt has delighted Guiding Light fans with her portrayal of evil teen Lizzie Spaulding since her debut on the popular CBS soap opera in 2003. An instant favorite with fans and critics, she earned Soap Opera Digest’s “Best Villainess Award” and recently received her first Daytime Emmy nomination, in the Outstanding Younger Actress category. Crystal’s film credits include The Derby Stallion, From Earth to the Moon directed by Tom Hanks, Problem Child II, and Homeless Children. Her numerous commercials include a spot for Disney’s 25th Anniversary Celebration and an anti-drug advertisement with the award winning pop music group NSYNC.

Like her soap star owner, Roxy Hunt is no stranger to the celebrity spotlight. She boasts numerous television and magazine appearances, and was featured in Crystal’s 2005 calendar, whose profits benefited ChildHelp USA, a charity for abused and neglected children for which Hunt is a celebrity ambassador.
