 New York Fashion Week: Victoria Beckham Dresses (and handbags!) Spring 2011

We’ll be back to our regular programming tomorrow, but for now we’re continuing our coverage of New York Fashion Week with a look at Victoria Beckham’s Spring 2011 dress collection.

She’s also added handbags to her line, previewing some of the new designs along with the dresses. This collection has already won a lot of praise, with some commentators saying it marks Beckham’s arrival as a “proper” designer. We think our readers should be the judge of that, though, so take a look under the jump and tell us what you think. Continue reading

Lady Gaga

Kinda restrained for Gaga, no? And kinda fabulous too, as a reminder of just how talented Alexander McQueen was.

Of course, Lady Gaga didn’t remain in McQueen for last night’s VMAs. There was the small matter of the “meat suit”. We’ll have a photo of that for you soon, but in the meantime, sit back, relax, take a look at the gallery below, and don’t forget to tell us who you thought were the style hits and misses of the 2010 Video Music Awards.

 New York Fashion Week: Richie Rich Spring 2011 runway

No, your eyes do not deceive you: that is, indeed, Ellen Degeneres, who walked the runway during the Richie Rich show last night. Stylin’, no? We always enjoy a show that doesn’t take itself too seriously, and, perhaps predictably, this one has humour by the bucket-load, as well as some fabulous shoes. It also has some almost-naked male models, and trust us: it’s totally NOT what the words “naked” and “male models” in the same sentence would usually lead you to imagine. Take a look under the jump to see what we mean… Continue reading
