There were lots of talks about Lindsay’s involvement into the creative process of Ungaro brand. She had been reported to be leaving it and then all the rumours were slammed. Now we again return to this topic and finally we can state that the 23-year-old no longer works for Ungaro.
The actress didn’t attend the show of the label at Paris Fashion Week. When asked why she wasn’t there, Lindsay replied:
Because I don’t work for them anymore. There’s legal things going on; I can’t really discuss it.”
The brand’s owner Asim Abdullah confirmed the news saying that Lindsay was “not involved” with the latest collection.
It’s not easy for her to read or hear about this. And she must be feeling really upset. Sorry for you, poor girl.

It seems that this girl literally attracts trouble. After such a pressure with Ungaro collaboration she is again involved into an unpleasant situation. This time she hasn’t done anything wrong except being too credulous.
Lindsay has been working on her leggings line expansion when the sketches for her new pieces were stolen. The worst part of this story is that her friend did that to her. The actress-turned-designer claims that it is her longtime pal Patrick ‘Pootie’ Aufdenkamp who took her drawings and now uses those for his own line.
Apparently Lindsay feels furious. But she knows it is her fault she was so trusting. And the so-called ex-friend is planning to launch his line this coming February.
A source said:
Patrick stole Lindsay’s sketches for her new 6126 clothing line. He is now running off trying to do his own line. And telling people he’s going to fashion market week in NYC on February 18 to debut his line. It’s horrible. He was her best friend. He has always used her, and she’s been warned to never trust him. Lindsay is a good friend and likes to see the good in people. She didn’t want to believe how bad Patrick’s energy was, and how false his friendship has always been with her.”
Patrick and Lindsay have been close friends for seven years and the star admits she’s been hurt by his betrayal.

Lindsay Lohan who has become one of the most discussed celebrities thanks to her Ungaro collaboration is planning to expand her 6126 line.
The actress is to include other than leggings items of clothing, such as jackets, dresses, and trousers in lace, cashmere and leather. It is expected that the collection will feature up to 100 pieces. The range in price will be huge and the most expensive item is going to be a leather jacket.
Besides, Lindsay made it public that futher expansion of the line is planned in 2011. The collection will be added with a range of accessories like bags, jewellery and shoes, as well as cosmetics.
Kristi Kaylor, principal in 6126 LLC in Beverly Hills, said:
We’ve had amazing success with the leggings line. We have a great business with Neiman Marcus and several hundred great specialty stores. DNAM Apparel was the perfect partner to work with 6126 and grow it as a lifestyle brand. We’re launching the full clothing collection next year, and a cosmetics line, handbags, shoes, jewellery in spring 2011.”
It’ll be a young contemporary price point with contemporary styling. We’re conscious of it in the sense that we have great price points and quality products. The vision is to offer customers something that they don’t have in the marketplace today, items that go back with leggings: blazers, dresses and tops.”

We have written that Lindsay Lohan’s involvement into the work of a famous brand Ungaro was critisized a lot by both the team and customers. Even the founder of the house Emanuel Ungaro couldn’t stay aside and expressed his discontent with the choice of a celebrity. And according to rumours the actress was to be asked to leave the label.
However, Ungaro’s CEO Mounir Moufarriage slammed rumours Lindsay is to be axed by the French fashion house. He insists she is still very much involved into the creative process.
He commented:
As we speak, she is in New York in shoots with Ungaro. The decision to appoint her was controversial, but then fashion is controversial anyway, and you need some novelties and you need to test some new ideas.”
He also told the press Lindsay’s association with the label has increased sales even though the Spring-Summer 2010 collection is not yet available in stores.
He told WWD:
There are some girls out there that whenever they move, whatever they wear, they attract attention, even if they make mistakes. It’s all publicity. We’ve got a celebrity and it’s a new concept, which we’re going ahead with. Ungaro, let’s recognise it, was a dormant brand, and now everybody’s talking about it today, so the level of awareness has improved greatly.”
Well, bad PR is good too, at least it ‘improves the level of awareness’. I’m glad Lindsay is no more under fire.
