Victoria Beckham continues in her success, taking stride after stride in the industry, establishing her name as a legitimate fashion label and not just an overnight success. For the past few seasons now, the WAG-turned designer has been wowing us with beautiful clothes that are both highly chic and wearable for the modern woman, and with her latest Fall showing, she nails it once again. Living in the US has definitely influenced the lady's aesthetic as she incorporates various American elements in her aesthetic while fusing it with her own brand of Continental glamour. The clothes were fitted and streamlined, but there were urbane elements to it; a pinch of American preppy, military touches and metropolitan smoothness that begs applause after applause for its sheer simplicity, practicality and sustainability. The colour swatch was sensible and utilitarian with black, khakis, and reds, perfect for her cosmopolitan audience- though perhaps a little too restricting with the lack of choice in garments. The whole collection mainly comprised of minimalistic dresses- from trademark serpentine pencil skirts to fun skater A-lines, they were plain but classic. Accents came in via geometric block stripes and a play on textures with leather lined coats and belts, toughening what could have been a rather indifferent ready to wear line. Of course, the designer herself also may have lent a hand on creating this vision of the VB muse. She's chic, understated and classic but never one to bore. Hands down, one of my favourites from New York.
