On Sunday afternoon Lindsay Lohan unveiled her first collection as artistic adviser for Emmanuel Ungaro at the Pret a Porter show, which was held at Le Carrousel Du Louvre – part of Paris Fashion Week.
Unfortunately, what ever Hohan’s touches, bounds to end in failure.
And she didn’t disappoint. The collection of mini dresses and blazers failed to excite the fashion critics and prompted only lukewarm applause when Lilo and designer Estrella Archs walked the catwalk at the end of the show.
But that’s the good bit..wait till you hear what WWD said about the collection.
WWD called the collection a complete “embarrassment.” They went on to say, “As for the clothes, they looked cheesy and dated, as has often been the case during chez Ungaro’s post-Emanuel revolving door of designers. Hot pink, orange and flashy, with an overworked heart motif relentless in its execution, the collection displayed none of the promised younger side Lohan was supposed to deliver. Nor in a million years would one guess that the lineup was designed by one young woman and ‘creative directed’ by another. Glitter heart pasties all around, ladies? For Lohan, she’ll weather the criticism, hardly her first or her juiciest, and move on when her contract allows. But Archs has her work cut out for her. Backstage after the show, she said the collection ‘had to be designed very quickly.’ Perhaps that was the problem. This storied house has been in disarray for years, and though Archs’ debut provided no indication that she’s up to the challenge, she should be given the chance to find out without a younger, non-skilled judge with theoretical veto power hovering about.”
Lindsay Lohan admitted to reporters backstage that doing the show has been ‘the hardest thing I’ve ever done’.
Oh well, it could have been worse, at least the critics didn’t boo.
BTW, if you’re freaked out the photos of Lohan, and so you should. Let us remind everyone that she is only 23 year old and not in her 50s.
