Christian Audigier criticizes Beckham’s designs
Good some people avoid hypocrisy to stay true to themselves.
Tattoo t-shirt guru Christian Audigier has revealed he doesn’t like Victoria Beckham’s fashion designs and considers them “very simple.”
I like her, she is a nice girl, but she is not completely my style,” the designer said in the interview. “I have seen some of her designs – they are very simple. It’s difficult for an artist or a singer to enter into the world of fashion.”
Being pretty harsh in his fashion judgments, Christina sees the objective reality of singers/ actors-turned-designers these days. They simply use their names to help sell, he adds.
Victoria hots up Armani underwear ads
It’s a kind of family business for the Beckhams. Both, David and Victoria, are Armani underwear models.
Victoria Beckham is featured in the Emporio Armani women’s underwear spring/summer 2009 ad campaign that will be on show in New York, LA, London, Milan, Rome, Paris and Tokyo, the source reports.
The images were shot by celebrated fashion photographers Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott and feature former Posh Spice in black-and-white light-and-shade pics posing sexy in all black and polka dot lingerie combos.
I love the pics for their old Hollywood glamour, style, great make up, and shoes, I love the shoes.
Armani’s $17 million deal with Victoria presupposes three-year cooperation and, as I assume, a lot more hot pics we’ll see in the future.
And the question is, why Victoria?
Victoria Beckham like a school teacher
A worldwide style icon, Victoria Beckham was said her image has changed to fit in with laid-back LA style since she’d moved to California last year. She has another opinion though:
It hasn’t, not at all. I am very British in my style. Think school teacher.’ She adds, ‘I love pencil skirts and fitted blouses, classic cut dresses and well fitted jeans mixed with classic tailoring.’
However, it is hard to agree that she always looks like a ‘school teacher’. For instance, this summer Victoria was spotted wearing flip-flops at Disneyland, while she is almost never seen out of her trademark high-heel stilettos. Posh claimed not to have any flat shoes, not even a pair of the ballerina pumps which are so popular with celebrities now.
Victoria Beckham unique style
Victoria Beckham has a chequered fashion past. With the release of her new Dress Collection, which has been flying off the shelves at Selfridges, she seems to have finally turned the corner and is earning the respect of the fashion world.
But lest we forget, she was not always as fashion savvy as she is now. In fact, it has taken her 10 years to get it right. Here, in all its glory, is a retrospective of the changing style of Posh
1. It’s 1997 and Victoria is starting to show her own unique sense of style. See how she’s cleverly used a teddy bear hide to jazz up a simple velvet jacket
In the words of Jarvis Cocker: lets all meet up in the year 2000. Or perhaps not, if this is what you’re going to wear, Victoria. This leather bondage gear really does nothing for Posh’s image
We love this sophisticated look from 2003 …
…but then Victoria attends a Monaco fashion event in 2005, wearing what appears to be a turquoise and green handkerchief by Roberto Cavalli
By 2007 Victoria has moved away from the shrieking Italian designers she once favoured (Versace and Gucci) but she still has a way to go. In this Roland Mouret dress the effect is less Audrey Hepburn and more Jackie Collins
Victoria wears Marc Jacobs and seems to have got rid of all that was Waggish about her. This dress suits her, rather than just showing off her bones or her riches
Victoria Beckham in green
Victoria Beckham was spotted strolling around The Grove in West Hollywood on Tuesday, November 11, with son Cruz. Adorable!
While little Cruz decided to play dress up for his outing, Victoria (of course) used the opportunity to strut her fashionable stuff. Wearing a hunter green frock with black suede Louboutin booties and her trademark oversized sunglasses (I love the frames of Nour’s Moman Sunglasses in Street), she finished off her look with a huge black hobo bag and her pixie cut. Simple yet elegant, Victoria continues to knock ‘em out of the park with her killer style choices.
In other Beckham news, it seems that the rumor is beginning to spread that Posh is planning to move to Milan while David is there, to keep a watchful eye on him. A source tells The Daily Star,
“Victoria wasn’t thinking of going to Milan with David, but when stories appeared about her letting him go there on his own, there were lots of comments about how foolish she was being.” Victoria’s rep is now speaking out, saying,
“She was always planning on splitting her time between Milan and LA. She’s not going to uproot her three sons but was always planning on being in Europe in January and February for the fashion shows.” Gotta love how Posh plans her time around the fashion world!
Victoria Beckham in black dress
A very Audrey Hepburn-esque Victoria Beckham was spotted making her way into LAX October 12, rockin’ her new ‘do as she strutted through the terminal like it was a runway.
Wearing a demure black dress with black Loubs, a quilted Chanel bag, and big black shades, Beckham looked every bit her Posh self. Whenever I seem to think of Vicky B., I always picture her towering in a six-inch pair of heels. However, it looks like I might need to adjust my mental image just a bit. Victoria recently told Glamour,
“I don’t own a pair of flat shoes. I don’t ever wear ballerina pumps, not my sort of thing, but the last time I went to Disneyland I wore heels and it was incredibly uncomfortable running around after the kids. I have a pair of flip-flops now. I went to Disneyland and I was wearing the flip-flops with some baggy jeans from the new dVb men’s collection. I so rarely wear flat shoes and everyone went crazy!”
Oh Posh, I highly doubt that you wearing shoes that aren’t heels would drive people crazy!
Posh’s look! Victoria Beckham has perfect style!
She squeezed into her scarlet Balenciaga dress to raid the rails with new pal Eva Longoria – although we doubt she squeezed much shopping into her micro handbag.Posh dodged the paparazzi’s flashes in sunglasses from her DVB range, proving she’s still the red-hot queen of self-promotion.
