Lindsay Lohan is perhaps not best known for her reliability, or in fact, her designer clothing know-how but that didn’t stop the Emanuel Ungaro brand from taking the star under their wing as artistic director last year.
And unfortunately for the French fashion house, the collaboration between the pair seems to have been one huge flop.
When Lindsay was hired, it was hoped that the young star would inject a bit of life into the somewhat lagging brand – after all, she’s certainly not known for being shy and retiring.
However, her designer clothing debut collection, showcased last October in Paris, was described by fashion commentators as tacky, cheesy and "an embarrassment", with the label absolutely panned for its decision to feature models wearing truly vile heart-shaped nipple tassels.
If this wasn’t bad enough, Lindsay has put the final nail in the coffin by not even bothering to show up for the Emanuel Ungaro autumn/winter 2010 collection on Monday at Paris Fashion Week.
The brand’s owner Ashim Abdullah told Women’s Wear Daily backstage: "She’s not involved in this collection."
So whether Ungaro dumped Lindsay or she decided she just couldn’t be bothered with the world of designer clothing anymore remains to be seen but I know what my money is on!
What do you put Lindsay’s no-show down to?
