| Not really much else to say. I try to support women on this forum but why would her team let her do this? |

| All these celebs love doing these things because they’re easy money. She isn’t fashionable so it’s a very odd choice. But Kylie Jenner also released a terrible fashion line as well and hers sold out immediately so maybe her team thought that the fame would be enough to get people to buy |

Except Kylie is actually famous and KS is not. I agree it’s a bad line. Not even sure who the customer is supposed to be. She seems like a sweet person. |

It's pretty bad though I think my initial response to the "current season" was a lot stronger than my reaction to the rest of it. Here's the full collection for anyone who, like me, had no idea: https://cleobella.com/collections/clothing
Here's how it feels. It's like whoever designed it (and it wasn't Katherine, get real) was a Project Runway contestant who has somewhat minimal background in fashion, good construction skills, and borderline taste. However, they made a really cute matched set with shorts and a button down in week 3 using an upholstery textile that shouldn't have worked but kind of did, and Heidi loved it and kept saying "I would wear it! I would totally wear it!" And then in week 8 they made a genuinely pretty one shoulder maxi dress with this dramatic flounce in a really wow color and it looked fantastic on the runway and the model really worked it. And every other week they turned in some puff sleeve sundress that the judges were bored by, but it was reasonably well made and not a total travesty, so they kept advancing. And then they get to the finals and it's obvious they're in way over their head and trying to capture the magic of the two good looks but maybe they weren't that good after all? I mean it was a matched set made out of couch fabric and a one-shoulder dress. And actually all they can do is buy these borderline ugly prints and make a puff sleeve and full skirt and actually, uh, that's not interesting or innovative or flattering and everyone hates it but they clap politely and are like "you're doing your thing, that's great!" before moving on to the actual contenders. Cleobella just has that very specific vibe. |

| I love it. It's like they took the lines Neiman Marcus carries and made them less clownish, plus refined the cuts to look ok on less skeletal bodies. |

| Because she’s a nepobaby with no actual talent but was put in charge of this for some reason. |

| I like it. I won't buy it or wear it but the colors and fabrics look very high end and the less girly stuff is elegant. |

| That’s a lot of ruffles and a lot of puffy sleeves. Looks silly to me. |

| I'm just taking a moment to appreciate the snarky-but-accurate genius of the assessment of 9:48. Bless you. |

+1 Also, Katherine Schwarzenegger Pratt reeks of privilege. There is no reason for her to have a clothing line. |

| Wow I really, really hate it. |

| I've seen much much worse. Not my vibe but I don't think its awful. |

+1 before I clicked on it I was thinking "it can't be that bad", but it is. It's pretty crazy that these days any celebrity can put their name on an ugly $300 dress and it will sell. These lines are so cringey, buying a Katherine Schwarzenegger shirt is not going to give you her comfortable, wealthy life, and she will probably never wear anything from the line herself. |

Most of it is horrible, but there are a couple of the simpler blouses I don't hate.
And I agree that 9:48 is genius. |
