LOS ANGELES, Calif. --
The namesake and founder of Emanuel Ungaro has added his voice to the chorus of critics attacking Lindsay Lohan’s debut for the famed fashion house at its spring/summer 2010 show.
“[Her] collaboration was a disaster,” Emanuel told the U.K.’s Independent of Lindsay’s first efforts as artistic adviser alongside designer Estrella Archs. “I am furious but I can’t do anything about it.”
The designer, who retired in 2004, said he worried that his former line was “in the process of losing its soul.”
Emanuel further lamented that the problems weren’t just at his own line.
“This happens to a lot of designers, we were the creators and patrons, responsible for the creation and destiny of our houses. But when we gave up our houses, we gave up our soul,” he said.
