Mrs Beckham's second collection is more about elegance than about following a trend. As was her first collection. Very few people really believed in the ex-Spice Girl's capacity to be a real and good fashion designer but it seems that she proved everyone wrong. Mrs Beckham really has someting to say and add to the fashion world.
Last September, scepticals were put to shame as Victoria Beckham showed that far from being a skinny and brainless woman, she had talent and enough intelligence to set a coherent and aesthetic collection. Indeed, she humbly avoided imposing a new style. On the contrary, she offered a collection of luxurious dresses inspired by her confederate, Roland Mouret. She wasn't offering a change of zeitgeist but a possibility for women to be as classy and elegant as she is...
For the Autumn/Winter '09 collection, Mrs Beckham hasn't changed the rules as the silhouettes on the catwalk were still timeless. Outfits had a fifties touch, in balck, ivory, gold or even tomato red, dresses were figure hugging, waists were accentuated with hems as long as under the knees. But there were also novelties such as short and flared dresses made of a mixture of wool and stretch with metallic details or capes to keep warm above a sheath dress or a pair of skinny jeans.
In addition, as a true business woman, she didn't forget to add a few ultra-long dresses, bot
h sober and chic, that could possibly charm a few Oscar nominees...And even if she didn't revolutionise New York's Fashion Week, masters the few collection presented by "designers" along the same line as hers such as J.Lo or Gwen Stefani with their grotesque catwalk shows a few years ago. In fact, her clothes are of impeccable quality, the materials ressemble those of an upscale fashion show and her style will be able to resist fashion's changes. Really, Posh hasn't finished surprising the fashion world as she goes from fashion victim to fashion muse and icon.
