Karl Lagerfeld and Donatella Versace get to keep their thrones, because it looks like they’re still the top constipated crypt keepers of fashion.

Lind’s debut collection for Ungaro failed miserably. And you’ll note that even though some high profile celebs were in town, no one was there to support. They’ve all turned their backs despite her begging on Twitter. WWD called the collection, designed by Estrella Archs, a complete "embarrassment." They also said, "As for the clothes, they looked cheesy and dated, as has often been the case during chez Ungaro’s post-Emanuel revolving door of designers. Hot pink, orange and flashy, with an overworked heart motif relentless in its execution, the collection displayed none of the promised younger side Lohan was supposed to deliver. Nor in a million years would one guess that the lineup was designed by one young woman and 'creative directed' by another. Glitter heart pasties all around, ladies? For Lohan, she’ll weather the criticism, hardly her first or her juiciest, and move on when her contract allows. But Archs has her work cut out for her. Backstage after the show, she said the collection 'had to be designed very quickly.' Perhaps that was the problem. This storied house has been in disarray for years, and though Archs’ debut provided no indication that she’s up to the challenge, she should be given the chance to find out without a younger, non-skilled judge with theoretical veto power hovering about."

The NY Times compared the effort to a “McDonald’s fry cook taking the reins of a three-star Michelin restaurant.” Clearly Ungaro were after publicity when they chose Linds to be the “artistic director”, and now they have it, because of the epic fail! Can’t see their line this season selling.

Meanwhile, Lindsay’s making Courtney Love look good. Where’s her mother???
