Victoria Beckham’s Appointment-Only N.Y.C. Fashion Week

The internet has been buzzing for months about the possibility of Victoria Beckham showing at Fashion Week, and now that it is finally here, we can confirm that Posh is in fact launching her dress collection this week. The designer is skipping the runway for a more intimate experience for the fashion elite. The 10 look collection of signature day and evening dresses will be showed by appointment only to top retailers and high-end fashion magazine editors. “This is a very personal collection for me,” says Victoria in a released statement. “I’ve always been drawn to intricate, seam-detailed designs as their structure enhances the flattering shape of a woman’s silhouette.  My signature dress collection is timeless, a modern interpretation of my inspirations.” Posh’s dresses are definitely a reflection of her own style. Created from fabrics like fine gazar and georgette silks, basket-weave cotton, taffeta and organza inlay complete with embroidery from India and hand-sewn beadwork, Victoria’s latest design fortay is the essence of sophistication and femininity. Dresses will range in retail price from approximately $1,400 – $3,500 and be sold in specialty shops and upscale department stores. Even though we won’t get to see the much-anticipated collection go down the runway, just knowing Victoria will be here at Fashion Week is exciting — maybe we’ll run into her at Christian Siriano’s runway debut at the tents?

I really like the way she dresses, she’s a wonderful dresser, but in all actuallity who gives a damn about her over priced clothes when she was so mid or late 90’s (Spice Girls -whenever it was). Her husband is hot and she has a great family however, on the fashion side I dont think she hasn’t made a name for herself to sale expensive dresses. That’s just my opinion. :-)

i agree with you JP, i love the way VB dresses, she is gorgeous and she always looks great! what i dont get is: her jeans wouldnt sell for $300 a pair and they ended up reducing the prices and all that…what makes her think someone is going to spent between $1500 and $3500 on a dress? she can only count on that from celebrities and i dont know that all those celebs endorse her like that. if only i could afford to dress myself like her!

Although she is very pretty and rich and all that, I do believe that she’s acting very snobby. I’m sorry that most people in the usa can not afford thousand dollar dresses and she is just appealing to the elites and the wealthy. Go back to Britain! Leave your husband tho for me!

ROBIN

Who would buy her clothes? She always looks uncomfortable in whatever she’s wearing and seems overdressed and plastic all the time. Who needs that?

shannon

seriously – who made her the queen. i can’t stand her. she is homely, obnoxious and really needs to eat a sandwich. i can’t believe i wasted my time reading about this, much less complaining about it.

unknow

im exicted for it and i cant wait to see what such a sytleish person can do with a new line of clothes

Miss M

Why would normal class people be looking forward to her line, if the dresses cost as much as their monthly house payment?

unknow

Shes so hoot and she looks hott in anything. Soo her clothes will be hott to love posh becks

tina

her wardrobe is amazing and i love her jeans! they are worth every penny!

Brenda

Ugh, I am just so sick to death this woman. She is so incredibly pretentious it’s not even funny. I don’t really see her appeal, either: ridiculous fake tan, anorexic body, fake boobs…just wow. Although I must agree that she dresses rather well (usually). I guess she should stick to fashion. It seems to be the only thing she’s legitimately good at.

Justme

She’s a sharp dresser but I had to jump in here and say to the two posters who called her pretty…wow! have you guys ever seen a “pretty” woman?
She’s skinny, dresses sharp because she can afford to and she’s rich. But pretty she is not.
Most certainly not!

Jonathan

It’ll be great to see Posh’s dresses, and it’s awesome that she’s doing this!

Samantha

Doesn’t matter how great her designs are, who’s gonna pay that much for a dress made from someone who isn’t even a real designer?

Jan

No, I’m not excited to see her collection. She’s obviously an elitist snob, so forget about it.

Hobbes

Her dress line will fail – just like her jeans line and menswear range. Nobody likes her as she is so overprocessed and fake, and always looks so snooty and miserable all the time. She reeks of desperation for fame and respect, but in reality has no natural beauty or genuine talent (for fashion or singing)- just her husbands money behind her. She is more interested in posing for the cameras and there is nothing natural or warm about this woman. Leave the fashion design to the real designers as no one cares about “posh”.

Jennifer

Maybe she’ll sell all 10 – if she wants to mass sell them she’ll be in trouble!
Although I doubt she is trying to reach ‘normal class’ people anyway if she is only selling them in high end retailers. These aren’t going to be in Kohls you know!

fluffyang

ya she’s hot..but seriously she looks plastic. Check out those hollow fillings around her eyes-damn, she needs to book another of her routine botox appointments…starting to look more like her sister.

lowemamma

Who other then celeberites can afford that much for a dress. Nock down the prices BIG Time and make more money. The average American would indors her style more then any of the high end American’s come one girl get with the program didn’t you learn after your jeans.
