Lauren Conrad Embraces Newest Fashion Challenge

The Hills' Lauren Conrad has confirmed that she will be designing a dress for next month’s Emmy Awards, calling it a “huge compliment.”

“I’m doing one. I may be doing two,” she said Saturday in Las Vegas before hosting a night at Christian Audigier The Nightclub.

The designer of the Lauren Conrad Collection will be dressing the show’s “trophy girls” who bring the awards on stage for the eventual winner.

LC elaborated on the challenge she faces:

“It’s a huge compliment to be asked to do that, and it was really amazing to be taken seriously, but I have my work cut out for me.”

The invitation to design the dress is a victory for Lauren Conrad, who's been called out lately for her supposed lack of involvement in her clothing line.

“I didn’t even really respond to the rumors because they were so silly,” The Hills beauty said. “[The rumors] came from someone who knew how important the fashion line is to me and knew that saying that would hurt me.”

The Hills star also squashed rumors that she is dating Kyle Howard. When asked if the two were dating, she laughed, saying “No, but I do know him, yes.”
