So as allready known, everyone and their mama is coming out with a Fashion Line. The idea blew up with J Lo, and Gwen Stefanie doing Lamb, Jessica Simpson doing her shoe line, Eve doing Fetish, Beyonce has The House of Dereon. And the list goes on and on and on. Kind of ridiculous, considering everything that these celebs put out has allready been done, seen, and thrown out. The only originals are Gwen Stefanie and Milla Jovovich really.

Well now to the list we can add antoher line by Mk and Ashley Olsen called Elizabeth and James
. The line is supposed to be affordable, but I don't think that $90 for a tee shirt is to be considered affordable. But I guess if everything you own is Balenciaga and Louboutin then $90 is nothing.

Also Lauren Conrad of The Hills fame has put out a line... made fully of Rayon. Both lines are 100% generic and item that look identical can be bought at urban Outfitters, H&M, or even Forever 21. So what the hell is the point? If you really want to make clothes be original, if you really must then do collaborations, and if you have no talent then just leave it the fuck alone.

I miss the days when the word designer meant that the person has skill, talent, designed every item, overlooked the making of the whole collection, created the prototypes, picked out the swatches, put it on the runway, and worked their ass off trying to market and sell it, instead no it just means that they signed their name onto a piece of clothing that they wouldn't even recognize if they saw it walking down the runway.

Don't get me wrong, I love the Olsens, and I like Lauren a lot as well. The Olsens personal style is fan-fucking-tastic, but their collection isn't.

I love the fashion industry, and have always wanted to be a part of it, but watching it go down hill the way it has been is slowly turning off the flame in me. But I guess instead of bitching I should do something about it, like get my shit together and start making clothes again.
