Lindsay Lohan, who was recently fired as creative director of the esteemed fashion house Emanuel Ungaro after she failed to produce a high fashion line that would sell, has reportedly teamed up with the tragic “fashion house” Ed Hardy (EEK!) to produce a line of handbags that will surely push the levels of tacky fugness to new heights … here are the deets of this new unholy union:
A source exclusively reveals to us that Linds is in talks with the L.A.-based clothing company to launch a new line of handbags. “Lindsay and the design team at Ed Hardy have mutual friends, and they knew she was interested in looking for a handbag license and partner,” our source says. “They thought she’d be a good fit and so did she.” So far, it sounds like the collaboration is running smoothly. “As of last week, there are three collections in development and numerous more are expected,” our source says. “Lindsay is very directly involved with the project, and she’s always pulling things online and from magazines for ideas.” This isn’t Lohan’s first involvement in the handbag business. In 2007, she was the celeb face of Jill Stuart handbags, and in 2004, she did the same for Dooney & Bourke … No word yet on when the Lohan-Ed Hardy collaboration will be released.
Ugh. It’s just all so … tragic. It’s beyond tragic … I’m not sure what more tragic than tragic can be called … but if there is such a word for this level of tragedy, it would be a great way to describe Lindsay Lohan teaming up with Ed Hardy. Ugh. To think, she previously worked with great brands like Jill Stuart, Dooney & Bourke and Emanuel Ungaro … and now she’s working with a “fashion” line that is popular among castmembers of MTV‘s Jersey Shore. To fall from such great heights …. ah, Lindsay.
What could possibly make this story even sadder? Well, how about photos of a sloppy-lookin’ Linds falling face-first into a cactus as she stumbled out of a house party here in SoCal this week? Check out those photos, after the jump …
