Lohan debuts as Ungaro ‘artistic adviser’
The real show at Emanuel Ungaro’s spring-summer 2010 ready-to-wear display yesterday in Paris was not on the catwalk but backstage as journalists mobbed the label’s newly named artistic adviser, Lindsay Lohan. The flailing-but-storied fashion house announced the partnership about three weeks ago, after the last in a recent string of designers, Esteban Cortazar, resigned. He was replaced with young Spanish designer Estrella Archs and her adviser, Lohan, known more for her stints in rehab (three in 2007) than her design abilities. (That said, the “Freaky Friday’’ star has her own line of leggings called 6126). The collection was chock-full of more of the ultra-mini party girl dresses that have flooded Paris catwalks this season, but it also had some nice, wearable suits that harkened back to Ungaro’s heyday in the 1980s. Asked how their collaboration had worked, Lohan said, “We both kind of mixed our [ideas] together, and that’s why it came out so well.’’ (AP)Reality show cast member’s ex-fiance killed
