Hollywood Actress Lindsay Lohan, Lindsay Lohan Photos, Lindsay Lohan’s Fashion Adventure Ends After One Show
Hollywood actress Lindsay Lohan’s design career has ended after a single collection for Parisian label Emanuel Ungaro, leaving the fashion world divided over whether her work was a disaster or a much-needed bit of fun.
Ungaro designer Estrella Archs, who worked with Lohan on last year’s widely panned show of buttock-revealing dresses and strippers’ nipple stickers, showed her second Ungaro collection on Monday. She said Lohan had no hand in it.
“You have up and downs and you learn a lot, more from the downs than from the ups,” Archs told reporters backstage when asked about the dire reviews of last year’s show with Lohan, who acted as artistic adviser.
“I feel that I have to work, work, work and work … I’ve been doing this for a long time, with different people and different houses, and I think this is the best medicine,” said Archs, looking close to tears.
Their joint collection has just hit the shops, but Lohan has gone back to buying rather than producing fashion — she was seen at Roberto Cavalli in Milan, and was invited to Dior in Paris on Friday, though she came late and missed the show.
Archs, with no entertainment career to fall back on, has stuck with Ungaro, turning out an autumn/winter collection of jewel-coloured dresses, bustier tops and leopard print trousers.
She can take heart at the fact that retailers have, on the whole, been less vitriolic than critics.
