Meet Queen Victoria of New York Fashion Week
Victoria Beckham stuck to what she knows so well today at New York Fashion Week: girl power. But this wasn't the girl power of 1997, the Victoria Beckham woman for Autumn/Winter 2017 is still a tough bad ass with heavy stomping boots but she has now acquired a taste for tailoring and georgette dresses.
Speaking backstage after the show exclusively to InStyle UK Victoria told us that this is very much a uniform required for now, given the political context we are in. Given her long time patronage of feminism security for this politically aware VB woman came via the classic tailored jackets but her flair for femininity- which is always apparent- appeared via chiffon dresses in bright red and sheer skirts. And boy is this a girl who loves to roll her sleeves up and get her leather gloves on for action.
Always her own brand's greatest ambassador, Victoria certainly gave us a taste of what was to come via her well-chosen outfits this week. Alas there was no track pants with oversized tailored coats here, but instead we had a more lux approach to loungewear, namely the softest of knits.
Whilst many look to the designer for the garments well tailored to the body, her pairings of jumpers with flowing printed skirts (inspired by Paul Nash's retrospective at the Tate Britain) was a move away from a, "silhouette that is not body conscious, but conscious of the body.” The designer very much made a move away from show-stoppers towards positioning herself as very much a ‘ready-to-wear brand,’ which were in places layered expertly together for the perfect seasonal uniform.
The clothes themselves weren't the only part of the VB brand to take on a new direction her money making bags cashed in on the newness too. Inspired by her work with Estée Lauder the designer unveiled a new vanity case, which was as hard and tough as it's owner.
