Victoria Beckham, whose women’s clothing lines are a huge success, says she isn’t going to create garments for men.

She told LOVE magazine:
I think Tom Ford is doing an incredible job…but it’s not like I can’t wait to do a men’s line. I love women. I’m a real girl’s girl.”
When working on outfits for ladies Posh pays attention to lots of things. First of all she wants those to be investment pieces and serve for long. So the quality is of utmost importance.
She said:
I just really love what I do and I’m passionate about it. It’s what I’ve also wanted to do and for me the quality is very important.”
Secondly, designs have to be really good so that the star-designer could wear them herself.
She said:
The sales have been phenomenal. It’s been a challenge – obviously people had preconceptions in the beginning – but I’ve worked really really hard. The final test for me is, would I wear it myself?”

Victoria Beckham is a person that you can love or hate but I don’t know a person who didn’t have ANY opinion about her. That’s good and that’s called ‘popularity’.

Glamour magzine took the responsibility to show another side of Posh, the softer one. And I think they’ve succeeded as I’ve looked at this woman in a different way.
In a number of photographes for the glossy Victoria is featured as a usual housewife but a bit more sophisticated maybe as no housewife actually washes the floors in heels.

In an interview Victoria reaveals a lot about her attitude to work, family, fans, etc.:
On what she would do on a day free of work:I travel a fair amount, and when I’m here in L.A., everything revolves around the kids. So if I’m not working, I go to the school and help serve lunches to the children. They just love that. It’s like, Oh, there’s Mummy serving me! The other day I was there, I was reading to Cruz’s class. All the little girls were saying, “We really like your dress.” And it was quite cute because I don’t have a girl.

On what makes her smile: My children and my husband make me smile. My work makes me smile. When I was in New York the day before the [last fashion] presentation…you’re trying to fit the models, [do] the hair and the makeup, and the anxiety makes you almost sick, but I’m like a pig in mud! That makes me smile.

Victoria Beckham likes designing so much that she plans to work in the fashion industry for the next 30 years.

Posh already has her own line of dresses, jeans and eyeglasses for her label dVb. And as she says she isn’t going to stop.
She said:
I plan on still being here in 25 to 30 years’ time. At the start it was tough because people had preconceptions but I worked incredibly hard and kept my head down. I have always had to work very, very hard with everything I do. That is just my work ethic.”
The 35-year-old has done very well with her dresses and her future collections will be even better, in my opinion. Moreover, her son Romeo is fond of fashion too. Now he is just seven but as time passes he will understand much more about style and new tendencies. So, his assistance will be very helpful for his designer-mother. Together they will be able to make huge contribution into the development of fashion in Britain and the globe.

It is becoming popular to say your offspring gives you fashion advice. What is it? Do we lose the sense of style or the younger know better?
Kate Moss has recenly confessed she listens to her seven-year-old daughter’s advice on choosing clothes. The British supermodel cliams Lila Grace already knows about fashion!

She told Company magazine:
Lila’s already got a great handbag collection! She’s got a mirrored Fendi bag and she’ll say things like, ‘I’m not going to wear that anymore’. She knows what she likes and I can’t force her to wear anything she doesn’t want to, which is annoying sometimes. She loves clothes. She’s got really good style, as well.”
The two usually go shopping together and Lila tells what she likes on her model mummy and what looks bad on her.
Kate says:
I rarely go shopping without her now. She tells me what she doesn’t like or she’ll say ‘Mummy, you look nice,’ or ‘That dress is amazing!’ She’s got it.”
Kate Moss isn’t the only celebrity to take style advice from her child. Another British star, Victoria Beckham, says her seven-year-old son Romeo loves helping her out with her fashion range.

PETA activists can sigh with relief as celebrities started wearing faux fur instead of natural. Maybe it is partially due to the anti-fur propaganda or something else but faux fur becomes more and more popular with those who we take example from.

Victoria Beckham has been the latest to appear wearing fake fur. And it looked chic and exquisite as usual Posh’s clothes.

Among those who have been noticed donning the new hot trend are Catherine Zeta Jones, Kelly Rowland, Liz Hurley, Myleene Klass and others.
Hope it will be going on and on! And poor animals will live longer!

Yesterday night (December 9) the British Fashion Awards 2009 were held at the royal Courts of Justice. The ceremony that marked the finale to the British Fashion Council’s 25th anniversary celebrations was sponsored by Swarovski.
The event was wholly dedicated to fashion and those people who have contributed to its development within the last 25 years. Over 500 people arrived including industry leaders, celebrities, designers, retailers, models and journalists.

Lots of celebrity women appeared on the red carpet wearing sumptuous outfits. Singer-turned designer Victoria Beckham wore one of her own creations – a floor-sweeping silk crepe Eighties-style gown with crystal embroidery on the shoulderpads. She looked gorgeous as always.
The Bristish supermodel Kate Moss opted for a similar-to-Posh’s dress – a sheer black Flamenco-style tiered dress with a super-long train. To cover her dignity a bit Kate donned a black blazer. Beautiful!

Bond-girl Olga Kurylenko looked stunning in a short black dress and a bolero, which she paired with black suede pumps and a clutch.
Designer Myleene Klass looked absolutely fabulous in a black frock with sheer sleves and a pair of perfect red shoes.
The other two girls in black were Eva Herzigova and Daisy Lowe who both rocked wonderful long gowns with cutaways and long splits.

Rising star in modelling business Amber le Bon sported a black mini and a blazer together with a pair of grey pumps and a white bag.

All-the-time-confident Victoria Beckham confessed she felt embarassed to show her debut range for her label dVb to Marc Jacobs, who is her good friend.
Victoria launched her line last year but had been terrified to showcase it to the acclaimed designer because he’s so talented and she knew so little.

She commented:
When I came out with my first collection, I didn’t even tell Marc. Well, I felt a little bit embarrassed. He’s Marc Jacobs. What else can I say? I never really told him, and then we went to dinner and he said congratulations on all the reviews and the quality of my work. I’ve learned so much from him. I am such a sponge whenever I’m around him. He is one of the most intelligent, interesting people that I have ever met.”
Victoria’s collection was received warmly but the sales didn’t go well. However, this wasn’t enough to stop Posh from designing a line of dresses. By the way, Victoria says she feels grateful to fellow designer Roland Mouret for advice and inspiration.
She told WWD:
I have utmost respect for Roland. I think he is incredibly talented. I love what he does. He’s a great businessman. When I very first started working on the dresses, he gave me advice when it came to putting my team together. He doesn’t have anything to do with the design of anything that I do. But he taught me about how to turn my dreams into reality, if you like. He told me I needed a production manager – he helped with that side of things. I do what I do, and he does what he does, and it’s incredibly separate.”

Victoria Beckham is very persistent. When her denim collection was dropped from some high-end retailers earlier this year she wasn’t much upset. And you know why? Because she must have already had new sketches for another denim line, but under a different name. This time she decided to call it simply Victoria Beckham Denim instead of dVb as it had been named before.

The new designs are said to be “sharper and sleeker,” as well as “sexier”. The line will include super-slim cigarette pants in both traditional washes and light pastel hues, funky leggings, slouchy boyfriend jeans, roughed up denim jackets and vests and even crotch-skimming cut-offs. Lots of zipper details are also expected.

The 35-year-old designer hopes this collection will become much more popular than the previous one. And probably her hopes are inspired by the success her dress line has. As you might remember her dresses have been spotted on Elle Macpherson, Eva Longoria, Blake Lively and Drew Barrymore.

The only thing that makes me doubtful about the sales of the upcoming denim is the price – it stats at $235. The line will be launched in Spring 2010.

Charity is a simple way to help people in need. It’s great if you do it not for PR but because you are truly compassionate and generous.
A group of world-famous designers were asked to help raise money for a charity organisation that deals with homeless families and women who lost everything but want to get back on their feet.
The task was easy and creative – just right for a designer – to decorate small papier-mâché houses which would later be sold on auction.
Among those who found time and desire to help were Oscar de la Renta, Issak Mizrahi, Diane von Furstenberg, Vera Wang, Donna Karan, Victoria and David Beckham, Justin Timberlake and lots of other celebrities who had hardly ever dealt with designing but wanted to do something useful for people who suffer.
The houses that we got in the result were pretty little things – colorful and spirited – which might go under a Christmas tree.

Vera Wang’s house was the most delicate and exquisite. The designer decorated it with lace, crystals, and flowers. Very nice to look at!

Isaac Mizrahi made the cutest house. He used a lot of pink and sparkle.

Oscar de la Renta’s house is simple but sophisiticated just like his clothes – nothing looks out of place.

Victoria Beckham covers UK Harper’s Bazaar December 2009, shot by Alexi Lubomirski. The cover is in nautral colors and all saturated with glamour and chic.

She talks about:
Her career:
People never believed the solo singing career, and it wasn’t the real me – I was a little bit lost at the time. I don’t mind making mistakes. I just can’t live with anyone else’s mistakes. I’m a complete control freak. I’m not the easiest person to work with because I’m so passionate and being a working mum, it’s a balancing act.”
