Victoria Beckham, the Real Deal

9.09.2010


The New York Times Style section featured an article about the one and only Victoria Beckham as she prepares for her  upcoming  New York Fashion Week presentation. 

A celebrity clothing line is one thing Victoria Beckham's collection is not. While most celebrity lines are just all name, Victoria Beckham puts in the work. Everything is designed, created and overseen by Victoria Beckham and she is someone who truly understands fashion. From cut, to fit, to fabric, she knows what women want out of their clothing, Fashion is truly her passion, and it is reflected in every single piece, in all of her collections.

"If at first you don't succeed, try and try again," describes Victoria Beckham's pursuit of being a respected designer.  Even though her original collection, DVB, didn't succeed (it did for some time, but lost steam), she never called it quits. And even when naysayers said she would not last, here she is showing at NYFW for the second year in a row, and her line with sales figures in the billions. "One part inspiration, three parts aspiration," means Victoria Beckham is here to stay. 

"I don’t do anything by halves,” she says, an edge in her voice. “If you’re going to do something, do it properly, I think. Otherwise there is no point in doing it at all." -Victoria Beckham
