And she's done it again! Firts comes the jeans, then the sunglasses, fragrances, and now a very impressive lime of formal dresses! These are 4 out of the 10 designs from her collection - each is very stunning and VERY Victoria! I love the clean lines and silhouettes - well done Vic!!Courtesy of http://www.telegraph.co.uk/:
"Victoria Beckham has launched her first fashion collection at New York Fashion Week based entirely upon her own personal style. Esconced in the Royal Suite of the Waldorf Towers, she talked a select group of fashion press through what she called "my dream of a lifetime."
The collection, of just 10 styles, which will cost between $600 and $1,400, is based entirely upon Mrs. Beckham's own style and owes more than a little to one of her favourite designers, Roland Mouret, inventor of the 'Galaxy Dress'. Made in luxury fabrics such as silk organza, silk crepe, gazar, taffeta, wool stretch and fine cottons, in a subdued colour palette of black, navy, cream, cobalt and flesh-tone, each dress is cut, seamed and contoured to within an inch of its hourglass life and features a long pink-gilt zip snaking straight down the centre-back seam. Interior corsetry, grosgrain waistbands, shoulder pads and ingenious 'nips and tucks' in the bust, waist and hip area, ensure that, as the fledging designer puts it "every woman who wears these dresses can have great posture and look great from every angle."
The dresses, in sizes 6-14, would be suitable for all ages, she said, singling out Nigella Lawson and Dame Helen Mirren as ideal customers.
Overall, the collection has a surprisingly modest, almost prim attitude with all hemlines ending at least three inches below the knee and some of the bow-neck, blouse-bodices having an almost governess feel. All the hemlines end at least three inches below the knee - But, as Mrs Beckham explained, these styles could always look more sexy with the bow undone, "like David (Beckham) undoing his bow-tie at the end of an evening."
The collection is being made in London with a small atelier staff of less than five people. Only 400 examples of the entire collection will be sold worldwide and will be available from February. "I know I have a lot to learn, but over the years I think I have worked out how women want to look," she said. She described her inspiration as coming from all the designers whose clothes she had ever worn, coupled with a love of 40's and 50's styles and a desire to be comfortable."
