What does everyone think of celebrities starting clothing lines? Paris Hilton just came out with a shoe line, Mary Kate & Ashley Olsen have multiple lines most recently Elizabeth and James at Holt Renfrew, and now even reality tv stars like Lauren Conrad who has a exclusively at Khols. I have to admit - I do like some pieces from Elizabeth and James. And I do enjoy some from Gwen Stefani's L.A.M.B. line. I wonder how designers who put money into formal education feel about sharing the runways of Fashion Week with them...

I read on NYMag that LiLo's debut was a huge flop. If I were a designer, I would be very irritated that someone with little more than their famous (or notorious!) name should be considered my competition.

Having said that, I don't see why some celebs couldn't be great designers. The industry must also allow for natural talent that requires little education to display brilliance. Education isn't everything, but most of us hugely benefit from structured study.

Oh LiLo! on Oct 08, 2009 @ 07:26 am
I read about LiLo's horrible flop too! The clothes were horrible - like really heart pasty's??

I agree - there are celebrities that probably who have a natural design sense. I think it's got to be a mixture of both formal training and a natural talent for designing.

Victoria Beckham's line looks fantastic.. it's very HER. Tight clothing, belted.. it's really her style and her influence in the line.

So do the Olsens' ... Elizabeth & James looked very wearable as well.

And don't get me started on Gwen's LAMB line.. so cute. Her shoes are freaking awesome too. I saw a pair of them on the TV series Dollhouse with a zippered back? Couldn't stop drooling.

However, none are "affordable"! *sigh*

Not impressed with Celeb Designers on Nov 02, 2009 @ 11:12 am
Yes, some work out. Mary Kate and Ashley's line is nice, so is Gwen's L.A.M.B.
But why can't celebs stick to what made them famous? LiLo should stick to acting. Paris Hilton should stick to being rich and partying. (LOL!)
But I think there are getting to be too many wannabe labels from celebs!
