Celebrities are money-making machines, which is probably why so many of them are given their own fashion lines – it’s just another way to make money off of them! Unfortunately, when it comes to fashion and design, not all celebrities have a clue, which is why we have so many of them that have failed. Many of these clothing lines have long been forgotten, so we figured that now would be a good time to take a look at which celebrities have tried their hands at fashion with little to no success. It is a pretty cutthroat industry – someone should have warned them. Here are 7 celebrities with failed fashion lines!
7. Heidi Montag
At the height of her fame, Heidi Montag had her own fashion line. She collaborated with Anchor Blue back in 2008 to launch Heidiwood. While the clothes were affordable – everything cost from $10 to $60 – they were not especially well made. After her one-year contract was up, Blue Anchor decided not to renew it, stating that they would not be using celebrity endorsements in the future. “We just felt that the one year was a great year for both of us, and we’re looking into other options,” an Anchor Blue spokesperson told New York Magazine. “We really found that we want to explore…what style really means to our girl…and that doesn’t necessarily mean a celebrity brand. It really means fashion and comfort, and we can really accomplish that with our own brand.”
Something tells us that the former reality TV star got way more out of this than Anchor Blue did, so it was probably best that they cut their losses.
