Fashion critics may have slammed Lindsay Lohan's clothing collection as an 'embarrasment", but it has been hailed as a commercial success.

The 'Mean Girls' star had created a line for French fashion house Emanuel Ungaro, but her designs were mauled by the critics when they hit the runway in September. The company's founder Emanuel Ungaro, who is no longer involved with the firm, also slammed Lohan's designs, branding the show a "disaster".

However, bosses at the fashion house supported the actress, insisting that she will return to design another collection for the brand. Company president Mounir Moufarrige said that Lohan"s designs have been flying off the shop shelves.

Moufarrige said that she has a job to do and that she is staying on. Though the criticism was harsh, the designs did sell well.
