Posh takes Selfridges by storm

Victoria Beckham is everywhere, on magazine covers, all over the news and in Selfridges...

Well, her dVb dress collection was anyways. That is, before a bunch of angry fashion-avid shoppers ripped the hangers bare.

By 3pm, only three of the 58 dresses purchased exclusively by Selfridges were left dangling on the rail.

The dresses are breathtaking, even with a price tag of about £1800.

Posh's influence in fashion is only beginning. She knows her fashion lesson and she is intent on showing it.

She told the Times: 'Being in the Spice Girls, fashion-wise probably didn't open any doors. If anything it shut doors and I've had to bang them down.'

Doors have been banged down (if only those of Selfridges), and in a month, Harrods' doors better beware as the range is going on sale internationally.

Victoria almost rivals Anna Wintour in terms of immaculate, perfectionist style and determination. The devil knows what these women will do with fashion next.

All I can say is that I can't wait to see.

How many Fashion Weeks do you know about?

LA Fashion Week is kicking off this week end only a week after a month of shows at the four pivotal fashion spots of the world.

After so many shows it's no wonder it often disappears into the pitfall of fashion indifference.

Los Angeles Fashion Week was created in 2004 and never really got the publicity it probably deserves. To be honest the city rivals New York in terms of fashion forward thinking and especially, wearable clothes.

The main problem is the timing: it comes too late after New York, London, Milan and Paris. The buzz has passed. And it comes too early in terms of marketing: the high-fashion buyers have already spent all the cash they could put their hands on on big labels.

But with Globalization, it is incomprehensible that fashion is still limited to the four "pillar" countries. Designers from India, Belgium and Norway are up and coming, and showing in Paris and London. Many more are showing in their countrie's Fashion weeks.

So why is there so little publicity for "international" fashion weeks?

It's true that Cape Town is starting to build a name for itself, but who has ever heard of Tokyo fashion week or Australian fashion week?

The latter is starting tomorrow by the way.

I think International fashion needs a little more attention, there might be a lot of new talents to spot. And even if in the south part of the hemisphere they wear summer clothes throughout our winter, it's not a good enough reason to dismiss them! The last shows were the Spring Summer collections anyways.
