The pop superstar is launching her own style empire, called MG Icon, and she is making her first venture, a juniors line, a family affair by inviting 13-year-old Lourdes to help her create the designs.
The Material Girl brand will hit shelves at department store chain Macy's in August and will include clothing, footwear and accessories.
Madonna will add beauty and fragrance products to the Material Girl range next year.
A statement from Madonna reads, "Joining forces with (clothing makers) Iconix to bring my fashion ideas to consumers is very exciting for me. I look forward to working... to create and translate my vision and ideas for MG Icon."
Madonna has previously designed a 2007 fashion line for retailer H&M.
She was also due to team up with Los Angeles-based fashion mogul Christian Audigier but pulled out of plans at the last minute.
