Lindsay Lohan's Couture Debut: Hearts and Pasties

Actress and tabloid queen Lindsay Lohan debuted her first fashion line as artistic director for the Emanuel Ungaro fashion house this weekend. The clothes, designed by Estrella Archs, featured a bright, young motif, complete with an 80s theme of flashy colors and heart-shaped emblems. Lohan was teary-eyed at the close of the show, and perhaps for good reason. The collection was slammed by critics for being an "embarrassment" and looking "cheesy and dated." Indeed, it was hard to take the line seriously with its overkill of red hearts and glitzy pasties under open jackets. We hope for her sake there will be more looks to come, but for now Lindsay, perhaps its best to stick to your day job, although we can't really remember what that is, these days. Take a look at Lindsay and Arch's line and decide for yourself, are these clothes fashion forward or a complete fashion flop? (Source: Reuters)
