You may only recognize her as the wife of a world-renowned soccer star, but Victoria Beckham has certainly made herself a popular name in the fashion industry. Though her music career as Posh Spice was short-lived, Beckham has always been known for her subtly eccentric yet classy style.
Her Spring 2011 collection featured stylishly draped dresses in both nude and bright colors with a reference to the '60s with fabric, shape, and color. The make-up was inspired by Andy Warhol's bright portraits of Marilyn Monroe and Elizabeth Taylor. As pictured above, the eye make-up featured layering of purple shadows and a strong liquid line.
The big shocker was that only one out of twenty-six looks had a corset or waist cincher, both of which are well-known trademarks of Beckham's personal style. As Beckham said when narrating the collection, her style has loosened up quite a bit and her aim was for comfort. She also mentioned that she focused on shape and curve which stemmed from her primary inspiration drawn from the work of the Romanian sculptor Brancusi.
Overall the collection was well-edited, simple, heavy emphasis on beautiful spring colors including deep purple, blush pink, nude and juicy orange and focused on fit and draping.
This parachute silk dress in ultraviolet knotted at the waist exemplifies Beckham's more loose-fitting style.
