Celeb Designers: No thanks!

31st March 2008 3:00 am

Well, it seems as though every young celeb and their mother has decided to design their own line. We have Rachel Bilson, Nicole Richie, Lindsay Lohan and others joining the roster of actress-cum-seamstress already peopled by Hilary Duff, the Olsen twins, Mandy Moore, Sarah Jessica Parker, as well as the other celeb set of the Hilton sisters, the Madden brothers, Lauren Conrad and … well, you get the point.

At this point I wouldn’t be surprised to wake up tomorrow and find out that George Clooney was actually launching a menswear line in conjunction with Brooks Brothers. In any event, below is a list of celebs I sincerely hope, no, I plead with, not to design anything!

Marilyn Manson – it would be black, it would probably have holes in it around indecent areas, and would be entirely morbid and definitely not glam.

Cher – her Vegas showgirl costume may have been couture, but her head still looked like a feather duster. She has appeared on Mr. Blackwell’s worst-dressed list so many times that it’s almost comical.

Mr Blackwell – I always find it strange that a man who himself has committed so many fashion faux-pas actually has the chutzpah to criticize what other people wear.

Anna Piaggi - I saw her at NY Fashion Week, wearing a hat inspired by a box of chocolates, and I’m still confused at who draws the lines between innovative/quirky/seriously misguided/weird fashionistas. Also– what does she do with all of those hats when she’s finished with them?
