Less than 6 months after debuting her signature clothing line, The Lauren Conrad Collection, The Hills star Lauren Conrad has endured a fashion designers worst nightmare- being dropped from L.A.’s boutique Kitson’s due to “lackluster” sales.

Making matters worse, on Friday rumors surfaced that Lauren isn’t the real creative force behind her collection.

“It’s the best-known secret in the fashion industry,” an insider tells OK!. “The real designer is named Sherry Wood.”

Lauren was quick to respond saying,

“I’ve been involved in this entire process, every single step of the way. I have wanted to be a fashion designer since I was a little girl. I grew up designing and sewing dresses for my barbie dolls, and the Lauren Conrad Collection has been my dream come true.”

And LC rep shoots down the talk, telling OK!, “The line is doing amazing and is in 500 stores around the country including Bloomingdale’s. Lauren is absolutely the designer.”

While that could still be up for speculation, one thing’s for sure though — the 22-year-old loves seeing her clothes worn by others.

“I normally stop and talk to them,” she tells OK! at the Animal Fair’s 9th Annual Paws for Style event. “I think they think I’m a little odd because I ask for a picture of them!”

Although I think the taking pictures of people who were your clothing designs is kinda weird, I definitely think that Lauren is involved with her clothing line. From TV and magazine interviews she seems really proud of her creations and them finally coming to life. She seems too happy for all of this supposed hard work to be fake. What do you think?

Sarah Larson will be the face of Christian Audigier’s new line of couture dresses.

Christian Audigier said, “She is a fresh, elegant and classy girl. I saw her on a red carpet and liked her style and European look.”

Larson’s agent, Kenya Knight said that, “Sarah was picked up by Christian Audigier because she looks fabulous in everything she wears.”

E! News talked with Sarah Larson on Saturday night and she said, “I just shot it a few days ago. The shoot was very sexy and feminine. It was a lot of fun.” The ads are scheduled to debut later this month.

Rapper M.I.A. is the latest celebrity to jump on the fashion line bandwagon. It is being reported that the rapper is starting her own fashion line based on the style of clothing she wears.

Her fashion line is different than the recent celebrity fashion lines because it is completely hers. Most of the other celebrities just add their names to an already famous label.

M.I.A. fashion line will include styles like bomber jackets, leggings, and graphic tees. She states that,

With my stuff, because everything’s really bright, if you lose it or someone steals it, you can see it from miles away and you can be like, OY! Give me my shirt back.

I hope that M.I.A.’s fashion line blows all the other celebrity lines away. After all she is the only one that can truly call it her own.
