Maddie Ziegler 2016 news: Former darling of Dance Moms gets her own clothing line

Dancer Maddie Ziegler, former star of "Dance Moms," has progressed far after leaving the show, and now, she has just launched her own fashion line. The young star is also preparing to launch her first book early next year. She is also set to star in her first major film.

Ziegler announced via Twitter that MaddieStyle.com has gone online, and fans can now purchase clothes made under her label. The store is still relatively new, but it does offer free shipping for orders above $75 within the United States. This is the first of Ziegler's new business ventures, but it certainly is not her last.

As reported by Hall of Fame Magazine, the former "Dance Moms" star is also writing her own memoir titled "The Maddie Diaries."

She is also planning to write a trilogy of novels for middle-grade readers. The first novel will detail the story of a young girl trying to get into the world of competitive dancing. It is planned to launch by spring next year, although a more specific launch date has yet to be announced.

It is also noted that she will star in her first major film, "The Book of Henry," in 2017. She will be playing the role of Christina Sickleman, and the film is being directed by "Jurassic World" helmer Colin Trevorrow.

A report from iTech Post also points out that after leaving "Dance Moms" Ziegler has found her own level of success, continuing her work with singer Sia, and has even appeared as a judge on "So You Think You Can Dance: The Next Generation."

Because she has proved that she no longer relies on Abby Lee Miller and "Dance Moms," it is speculated that she is not going to return to the show for the remainder of season 6 or for the upcoming season 7. The report also states that there may not even be a show to return to as "Dance Moms" faces cancellation due to bankruptcy fraud charges filed against Miller.
