    celebs: Lindsay Lohan
    topics: Fashion Faux Pas

    Lindsay Lohan and designer Estrella Arch were all smiles before the reviews came out on Emanuel Ungaro's Spring 2010 collection. Dominique Charriau/WireImage.com The fashion world was flabbergasted when Emanuel Ungaro tapped Lindsay Lohan to serve as "artistic advisor" on its creative team in the hopes of reviving the brand. Um, she had a line of leggings, but did that really make her a qualified candidate for the position? Apparently, it did. That's why everyone couldn't wait for the unveiling of her first collection during Paris Fashion Week on Sunday. Let's face it: Everyone was anticipating a train wreck and, sadly, that's pretty much what they got.

    In fact, Women's Wear Daily was so unimpressed by the 23-year-old's debut line with Spanish designer Estrella Archs that they urged LiLo to seriously think about reviving her acting career. "Call the fashion police!" exclaimed noted French art director Fabien Baron after he sat through the runway show. Ouch!

    So what exactly went wrong? Perhaps it was the sequined heart pasties that some of the models used to cover up on the catwalk, or perhaps it was simply that Lindsay has no experience. "Being a young, pretty, controversial woman who looks good in clothes and photo ops just isn't enough," noted WWD.

    Check out a few of the looks from the runway show below. Would you dare to wear them?

    It would be hard for any woman to sit comfortably in this skimpy, neon orange mini! Dominique Charriau/WireImage.com

    Lindsay might don a spandex bandeau top paired with splattered white skinny pants, but would you? Dominique Charriau/WireImage.com

    Pretty in hot pink? Dominique Charriau/WireImage.com

    Unfortunately, a pair of funky sunglasses can't save this drapey black and cream ensemble. Dominique Charriau/WireImage.com

    Backstage, Archs said that the collection “had to be designed very quickly.” Perhaps that's why she and Lindsay came up with looks like this one. Dominique Charriau/WireImage.com

    Oh and did anyone else notice the model next to Lindsay? Her right leg is way darker than her left, and both her legs are darker than her upper body! How fake and tacky is that lol.

    I don't know what is worse - Lindsay working in fashion or the starving models!! I think both are a mess. Lindsay looked terrible in her photo too. Maybe if I keep wishing hard enough she will just go away.

    All I can say Lindsay, is go back home, get re-schooled . Forget about acting, you blew it big time. As for fashion designing......get real. You are no Versace. Where did you get your fashion "sense"? The skinny, ugly models make your designs even worse.
