Lauren Conrad’s clothing line is on hold, her rep says. The Hills star released her own line—Lauren Conrad Collection—in 2007, and today it was reported the Spring/Summer merchandise has been returned to sender. Rumors have sprouted since last fall that LC‘s clothing line wasn’t doing very well. L.A. boutique Kitson stopped carrying her merchandise because they swore it wasn’t selling, although her rep denied this.

Regardless, LC‘s camp is blaming the recession on her break from the fashion biz. Page Six via UsWeekly reported:
“She is taking a hiatus, but the line still exists and will continue,” her rep tells Us. “The sales of her line in the first year doubled what was projected. However, in light of the economy, it’s a good time for Lauren to take a few seasons off to re-work her still budding line.”She will look over the past seasons to determine what worked and what didn’t work so that she may design clothing that will appeal to her fans,” the rep continues.
Uh huh. Likely story. Our take? If the line was selling LC wouldn’t have had to cancel the shipments and take some “time out.”
