Victoria Beckham is like Marmite, you either love her or hate her, and although marmite is not the most flattering of comparisons, it’s undeniable that she’s been labelled as worse. I won’t lie, I was never her most admiring fan either. Posh was my least favourite Spice Girl and that duet with Dane Bowers was nothing short of appalling. However, it’s definitely fair to say that Victoria Beckham, having left behind her musical past, has instead found her true, talented calling.
Having established herself as one of today’s most sought after designers, as well as a woman who frequents Best Dressed Lists and can carry her daughter with ease across a busy Manhattan road in sky high stilettos, she is a woman who should be applauded. What also deserves our recognition is Mrs Beckhams newly launched A/W 2013 line. Victoria, Victoria Beckham is a lower priced (for some) addition to the VB fashion line and as the designer herself described at the catwalk presentation ‘the Victoria, Victoria Beckham girl this season is an engaged intellectual with a sense of humour…she drinks espresso, and she devours books and art and film. And she is subversively sexy without trying.’ If that’s the case, who wouldn’t want to be a VVB girl?
Following the key trends for next season VVB is comprised of masculine and tailored pieces with easy to wear and subdued colour elements. For me, it’s the way VVB designs are uncomplicated and relaxed but at the same time the flattering fit and sleek lines instil a seductive and enticing confidence into any girl who wears them – take the Zip Front Collage Dress, for example. The lady herself has also intuitively tapped into the VVB girls brain and created garments that are suited to a fast paced lifestyle. The Sleeveless Tux Dress and Printed Silk Shirt/Skirt Combo are perfect examples of this; the look of a strategically planned, two-piece outfit but only minimum effort needed to choose one item from your wardrobe (something all girls will appreciate, thank you VB!)
Overall, the new VVB line has all the key looks and is model inspiration for your up and coming A/W wardrobe. My only hope is that there’ll be a similar Victoria Beckham High Street collaboration within the near future!
