Their stated design mission was "feel good, look great, feel bad, look great." Jovovich isn't even wearing her own eponymous line on Lucky's cover (as she did for their July 2006 issue), which can't be a good sign. Though Jovovich-Hawk still touts their spring 2009 collection online, no word on if Hawk will continue the business.
