Victoria Beckham S/S 2015
The British designer came armed with earthy linens and long, lean shapes for her New York tour de force
For several seasons now, we have ended up saying the exact same thing about Victoria Beckham: that her fashion collection is shockingly good and she is consistently one of the most interesting shows in New York. Having almost opened the doors on her first boutique in London, Beckham's business is growing briskly and with it, her fashion vision continues to cohere in an ever stronger, more powerful and desirable way. For spring she kept the ideas simple, but developed them to the max - a feat that few other designers who show in New York managed to do. Key to the collection were the long, lean shapes, of which the slit, three-quarter length skirt was the star performer. Beckham showed these in sturdy earthy linens as well as in stretchy vertical pleat knits and paired them with cropped jackets that sat just at the tip of their high waistbands. The silhouette was sharp and modern and made for an excellent canvas for the designers' play on graphic stripes and her new deep footbed velvet platforms - Beckham's official launch into footwear.
