Emanuel Ungaro

Lindsay Lohan Fired from Ungaro?!?

March 8, 2010 By Holly Stafford Leave a Comment

After last season’s collection of buttock-revealing dresses and strippers’ nipple stickers, Lindsay Lohan had nothing to do with Monday morning’s Parisian label Emanuel Ungaro show. Leaving the fashion world divided over whether her work was a disaster or a little bit of fun, Ungaro designer Estrella Archs showed her second Ungaro collection on Monday, saying that Lohan had no hand in it.

Per My Fashion Life:

“She’s not involved in this,” a spokesperson for Ungaro told WWD this morning, leading to speculation as to whether the company has cut ties with actress completely.

Although she turned up in other designers’ front rows, Lohan didn’t attend the Ungaro show. A week before the show, Ungaro’s press department firmly said that she was still working as artistic adviser. The fashion house now appears to be uncertain over whether it should pretend the Lohan collection never happened, or be proud of its Hollywood connection. There’s no official word yet on whether she still holds the Artistic Adviser title.

Lindsay Lohan’s Paris Fashion Week Debut Labeled an Embarrassment – Photos

October 5, 2009 By Cara Harrington 2 Comments

Lindsay Lohan made her whore-in-training-wear debut at Paris Fashion Week looking like the ghost of Tammy Faye Baker exploded on her face. She was given the role of “artistic director” at Emanuel Ungaro. After seeing her work walk the runway, I am wondering what is so artistic about discount 1980’s stripper outfits from the Fuzzy Peach Boutique. Most of the outfits appeared to be half finished. Lohan’s answer to complete the looks was PASTIES! Lots and lots of sparkly pasties!

Fashion critics from WWD are also not impressed. The show was labeled an “embarrassment” and this could be the kiss of death from Ungaro. Paris Fashion Week is like the Oscars of fashion. If you fail to at least get a ho-hum, you might as well pack your bags and prepare to be damned to Wal-Mart.

“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.”

They had to have seen this coming? Lindsay would have done a better job of guarding the blow and jewelry. Of course she was going to crank out a line of costumes worthy of the musical version of “Hooking: A 1983 Love Story.”

Lindsay Lohan Aims to Ruin Ungaro Fashion House

June 2, 2009 By Cara Harrington Leave a Comment

Lindsay Lohan still hasn’t achieved her ultimate goal of becoming the next Meryl Streep and is looking to fall on her back up plan. When all else fails there’s always leggings and spray tan.

Currently the part time lesbian is in Paris spreading her…talent. Lohan is after a job as a creative consultant for Ungaro.

Via NY Post:

“According to multiple sources, [she is] talking to the House of Emanuel Ungaro about signing on as a “creative consultant” for the fashion line. But the current head designer of Ungaro, Esteban Cortazar, is not greeting the rehabbed starlet with open arms.”

It gets better. Upon hearing the new the label was even considering hiring Lindsay, Esteban threatened to leave the fashion house and take his team with him. The owner of the line, Asim Abdullah, seems to think she’d bring “new energy and new buzz.” Unless he is talking Red Bull -energy and a vodka -buzz, I don’t think she’d bring much to the table except remnants of last night’s Taco Bell run.

I couldn’t image why Esteban wouldn‘t want to work along side Lohn. I am sure it has nothing to do with her coke habit or penchant for throwing 6 pound ashtrays at her lovers’ head.
