Actress-turned-fashion designer Lindsay Lohan is livid after reportedly catching one of her longtime friends stealing designs she created for her forthcoming clothing line.
The starlet is set to expand her leggings label, 6126, to a full-fledged contemporary apparel line for fall 2010, with more lifestyle brand extensions planned for 2011. This will be in addition to her role as artistic adviser at French brand Ungaro. Lohan was devastated to discover old pal Patrick ‘Pootie’ Aufdenkamp – who accompanied her to many meetings related to her new fashion line – has been stealing copies of her sketches in hopes of creating a fashion empire of his own.
“He is now running off trying to do his own line… And telling people he’s going to fashion market week in NYC on February 18 to debut his line,” a source tells UsMagazine.com.
“I should’ve known better. But new year for me and a new beginning! Health, happiness, success and love!” Lindsay replied when asked to confirm the reports.
