Trend Alert: Crisp Cobalt

FabSugar — Fri, 11 Sep 2009 09:00:08 -0700

Victoria Beckham was probably so proud to see Blake Lively donning her stunning creation at the Saks Fifth Avenue soiree in NYC. It doesn't take much for the Gossip Girl to shine, but I can't help but be blinded by the crisp cobalt hue. This bold blue is once again popular, and I can see why. It's simultaneously daring, yet sleek, and complements every skin tone.

Try this bright blue on a dress, like Blake does, or pair it with neutral separates. I've always been a fan of wearing it with gray for a downtown sophistication.

Who Wore It Better? Victoria Beckham Gray Cashmere Dress

FabSugar — Wed, 12 Aug 2009 12:00:22 -0700

This is one battle I'm glad I'm not a part of. Victoria Beckham originally wore the gray cashmere dress from her Victoria Beckham Collection back in July in London. Of course, she didn't leave home without her sky-high Loubs and oversized sunnies. Super Elle Macpherson just showed up on the NYC set of The Beautiful Life wearing the same VB dress, only with lower, pointier pumps and equally oversized sunnies. Both ladies have amazing figures, but only one can take the cake. Who's it gonna be?

Put two foxes in the same foxy LBD and YSL patent platforms and what do you get? Steamy competition. Hardbody homies Heidi Klum and Victoria Beckham both wore this skintight deep V Victoria Beckham dress and YSL's killer platform patent heels. Klum, unveiling the new Victoria's Secret Perfect One bra in Los Angeles let her arms breathe with nil accessories, while VB loaded on a fur shrug, motorcycle gloves, a Hermes bag, and black shades. What it boils down to is: minimal or maximum?

FabSugar — Wed, 21 Jan 2009 04:00:22 -0800

Victoria Beckham and her handsome hubby attended a Vogue party in Milan. Posh took this as yet another opportunity to promote one of the dresses from her Victoria Beckham Collection. She chose this bright red number that has a sharp cut and silhouette. It fits her like a glove, no? And accentuates her generous cleavage. As if the dress wasn't red enough, she also wore red pumps. Lady in red indeed. What do you think - too matchy-matchy or perfection?

Fab Flash: Victoria Beckham and Roland Mouret in Cahoots

FabSugar — Mon, 08 Dec 2008 12:00:22 -0800

It's safe to say Victoria Beckham's dress collection is a hit. In fact, her collection has already sold out in London. But, did you know that designer Roland Mouret had a hand in her sensational success? According to sources, a spokesperson for Beckham disclosed that Mouret assisted her through the whole experience - just how much is to be debated.

"Roland set Victoria up with his pattern cutter and also introduced her to his fabric suppliers," said a Beckham spokesperson. "There is no secret Roland has helped Victoria set up various aspects of her atelier in London."

An insider states: "It's been a bit of a joke as to how much Roland has been involved. The similarities between the dresses are undeniable." Meanwhile, Beckham's representatives insist that Mouret "had absolutely nothing to do with the creative process." There is a slight resemblance between Beckham's designs and Mouret's, but enough to differentiate the two. What do you think?

FabSugar — Mon, 08 Sep 2008 15:00:08 -0700

Update: More posh styles from Victoria Beckham's dress collection have been released. See them in gallery below.

A few months earlier, Victoria Beckham announced that she will be designing a dress collection. Now, we have the pictures to prove it. The debut dresses encompass a style true to her own with a collection of streamlined sheaths and embellished strapless dresses such as the ones seen below.

“The collection was inspired by the femininity and sophistication of the midcentury silhouette,” said Beckham. “I’ve always been drawn to intricate, seam-detailed designs, as their structure enhances the flattering shape of a woman’s silhouette.”

Her 10-style collection incorporates basket-weave cotton, fine gazar, and georgette silks embellished with Indian embroidery and beading. Beckham's dresses range from $600 to $1,400 at wholesale, and will be unveiled via private showings during New York Fashion Week.

FabSugar — Thu, 29 Oct 2009 11:00:22 -0700

On the footwear front today, the unstoppable Nicole Richie has released exclusive images of her Spring '10 House of Harlow footwear collection. The shoes, set to debut in January at My-Wardrobe.com, stay true to her bohemian aesthetic featuring chunky platforms and Navajo-inspired detailing. Prices are to be determined.

In addition, rumor has it Victoria Beckham will be adding a footwear collection to her covetable VB clothing collection. "Victoria is tired of promoting other brands. If she wears Christian Louboutin or Hermès people go and buy it. She thought, 'Why can't I do this with my own line?'", said a friend of Victoria Beckham. Of course, hottie husband David Beckham supports her new venture offering to build her a design workshop. Tell me, would you be interested?

Has Victoria Beckham Snapped Up Blake Lively?

FabSugarUK — Mon, 16 Nov 2009 00:42:07 -0800

Rumours have been rife recently that Victoria Beckham's next business venture is to set up a modeling agency in New York with Simon Fuller. The singer turned designer was apparently in talks with 19 management to set up an office for Storm Models stateside after Fuller bought a 51% stake in the agency earlier this year.

Victoria has recently denied these claims with a spokesperson saying, "Victoria is concentrating all her efforts on her fashion line and her family." Despite this, some newspapers are claiming that it's still going ahead and that Victoria has her eye on one beauty in particular!

Blake Lively has got her attention and has apparently been approached to model her next collection of dresses. Allegedly, the pair came to a deal where by Victoria would get a cameo appearance in Gossip Girl and in return Blake would model. All of this is yet to be confirmed, but I can definitely see the appeal of Blake modeling the new collection. Would you like to see this happen?
