Lindsay, the reviews are in

In Paris this week, Lindsay Lohan released her first clothing line for fashion house, Emanuel Ungaro, after being appointed the brand’s Artistic Advisor. In an attempt to youngerfy (yes I just made that word up) the brand, Lindsay launched clothes in a range of bright colors and included lots of hearts, and the fashion elite don’t like it. One particularly harsh review said, “it was an insult to anyone who had ever really worked in design.”

I have to agree with them. Watching the runway show actually made me cringe. Not with disgust, with disappointment. Lindsay, one of Hollywood’s most photographed and stylish young starlets, teams up with fantastic creative director Estrella Archs, and this is all they could come up with? The clothes were boring and tasteless, and oh-so-done-before. The whole thing was just… dull.

Check out the video below and let me know what you think.

Despite the bad reviews, the ultimate test will be how successful the range is when/if it hits stores, so I’ll keep an eye on sales figures and keep you updated.
