Emanual Ungaro with Estrella Archs and Lindsay Lohan

Well here is what we have all been waiting for. The first collection the Emanuel Ungaro label presented under the artistic advisement of Lindsay Lohan. CEO Mounir Moufarrige chose to replace Esteban Cortazar with Spanish designer Estrella Archs a short while ago. The collection was put together in a little under a month.

The goal of the team was to revive the label, bring back the basics and add a little bit of youth. While the collection was not bad, it was definitely not great. There were a lot of poor color combination choices and many of the pieces were rather ill fitting. The shoes did not work well with the collection either. There were however, a few interesting dresses and jackets and some of the pieces would work well separately.

The media tore the collection apart. While it definitely didn't live up to Ungaro standards, it seems as though the real issue is that Lindsay Lohan is working for the label under what is said to be a multi million dollar contract. Did you see the collection? What are your thoughts and do you think Lindsay will stick around?

What the heck is with that pink blazer/orange pants number?! Especially the pants. I've seen better from the worst Project Runway participants. What would Tim say? "Sigh."

Ya, can't say that I'm a huge fan. That first outfit is outright hideous by my standards! Since when did Lindsay Lohan become an authority on style?
