Emanuel Ungaro designers usually do a great job to make exquisite clothes the brand is famous for.
This time I can’t see so much creativity involved from both the head brand’s designer Estrella Archs and the artistic advisor Lindsay Lohan.
Of course they didn’t have lots of time – about a month or so – but for a real talent this would be enough to make a huge impressive show. This didn’t work for Engaro though.
The collection had been described as youthful and bright but in the result we saw tasteless patterns and for-small-girls accessories.
Occasional furs were better to avoid as well as those heart-shaped multicolored headwear pieces. Even the shoes looked too simple.
Although it wouldn’t be quite fair if I said that all the items in the range were plain and uninteresting. Some were nice and looked modern and edgy, for example, the strapless fuchsia plissé minidress that opened the collection. Besides, a few one-shoulder frocks looked good.
To tell you the truth, I’m a little disappointed; though we couldn’t expect too much from Lindsay, could we?
