Lindsay Lohan finds designing clothes "therapeutic".

The 'Mean Girls' actress - who has her own fashion line 6126 - loves creating outfits as it gives her the opportunity to express herself.

She said: "Fashion is something that's so expressive in so many ways - within film, within music, within daily life. It expresses how you feel that day and the character you're playing. I really appreciate and respect it. It's something that's not only a hobby of mine, but it makes me feel good. It's really therapeutic for me, actually - the designs."

However, Lindsay - who was forced to deny rumours she was blacklisted from New York Fashion Week and suffered the embarrassment of her designs for fashion house Emanuel Ungaro getting panned by critics - admits being associated with her can have negative consequences.

The 23-year-old star - who has been in rehab three times - told America's OK! magazine: "I'm the first to say that in certain situations, my name will cheapen things because that's what people have made of it."
