Victoria Beckham's Fashion Label set to Earn over $96 Million
The ex-Spice Girl debuted her label in 2008 and since then it has expanded to separates and handbags.
Vogue UK reported that this season saw Beckham present "Victoria by Victoria Beckham" - a lower-priced collection, containing witty animal-printed dresses and color pop shifts that the new mother has been sporting herself.
Although an official statement has not been released by the brand, the Daily Mail reported that sales increased by 70 per cent, as compared to the same period last year.
"Victoria never dreamed her clothing range would be successful. She is close to eclipsing David!" a source told the Daily Mail.
Currently, her footballer husband, David Beckham, is on a five-year contract with the Los Angeles Galaxy worth 128 million pounds. Besides this, he is also involved in a series of sponsorship deals. Together, the celebrity couple has an estimated 165 million pounds fortune between them.
Spot the trend: Tess Daly is latest star to go dotty for daring Stella McCartney dress
The mum-of-two wowed viewers with her enviable physique in the transparent peek-a-boo dress on Strictly Come Dancing on Sunday.
The daring design – which, thanks to its sheer panels, requires owners to forgo underwear - was premiered by Kate Winslet back in March.
And Stella fan Liv Tyler took the plunge soon after, trying a similar, peplum-adorned version on for size.
Victoria’s Secret model Doutzen Kroes also got in on the act – although she styled it with a sheer slip underneath.
And Oscar-winner Colin Firth’s other half, Livia Giuggiolo, looked nothing short of fabulous in her version

Toronto Fashion Week trends: technicolour (and some slightly subdued) dream prints
Our final look at the trends from last week is a series of prints, from Fair Isle scarves to African textiles to a metallic fringe jacket with zebra stripes. We always say that if you’re going to dress like an animal, it should be the most haute animal—no stylish zebra would ever be caught dead without a little sprinkling of bling. But the zebra isn’t the only animal kingdom A-lister, since the world is full of glamorous animals, including the sporty lion, who never leaves home without his fur vest and contrasting waistcoat (a lion never knows when he’ll have to look his best for an unscheduled networking opportunity). We just love that Canada’s coolest kids were showing some colour this fashion week, and so brazenly, too—without it, we’d all just have dark and cold clothing to match how bummed out everyone felt for having to wait in line for 40 minutes for an already-late show.
Karl Lagerfeld to launch two new lines next year
Set to launch during haute couture week in Paris, a 100-piece collection simply named Karl will become available on designer shopping site Net-à-Porter.com.
But as opposed to much of the e-store's usual offerings, the range will retail at affordable prices, ranging from €60 to €300.
Besides designing for Chanel, the designer recently demonstrated his "love for the masses," collaborating with budget retailers including Macy's, while putting his own label on hold for a year.

Within 3 months of our return to Canada, we drilled over 100 wells, bringing clean water to over 100,000 people. This upcoming dry season we have committed to drill 200 more."

Inspirational style - Cristina B
( Cristina poarta Top Promod, cardigan Promod, fusta vintage, pantofi Asos, curea, margele si cercei vintage)
1. Care este stilul tau vestimentar?
Am un stil mai degraba experimental. Caut sa combin si sa (re)mixez haine apartinand unor stilistici diferite. Incerc sa creez punti noi intre ele, iar maniera in care reusesc sa le aduc la o nota comuna, fara a anula specificul fiecareia in parte, formeaza ceea ce, cu sau fara ghilimele, se poate numi stilul meu.
2. Ce te inspira?
Cel mai mult ma inspira creatiile altor designeri, revistele, blogurile pe care le citesc. Pot spune ca sunt dependenta de limbajul vizual pe care il creeaza moda in toate contextele in care ea activeaza. Niciodata nu a fost vorba de preluarea unor elemente ca atare, ci de prelucrarea imaginilor pe care le vad si care nasc idei cu care jonglez pana cand rezultatul final este cel putin satisfacator.
3.Care este piesa ta favorita din garderoba?Am o slabiciune pentru pantofi, cred ca auziti asta de la foarte multe fete 'initiate' in cele ale modei. Momentan sunt indragostita de cele doua perechi de pantofi Jeffrey Campbell pe care le detin.
4. Ce magazine si ce designeri preferi?Frecventez si eu, ca mai toata lumea, Zara, H&M, Mango & co., online shopurile precum Topshop, Asos, magazinele vintage online de pe la noi, si foarte mult imi place sa caut mici comori prin magazine second hand sau la piata de vechituri. Haine de designer nu imi permit (sper sa nu gresesc adaugand si un timid 'deocamdata'), dar ma inspira foarte mult Miuccia Prada, Marc Jacobs, Jack McCollough si Lazaro Fernandez de la Proenza, surorile Mulleavy de la Rodarte, Cristopher Kane, Alexander Wang, Riccardo Tisci de la Givenchy, Mary Katrantzou si Michael van der Ham, Nicolas Ghesquiere de la Balenciaga, si bineinteles Karl Lagerfeld si regretatul Alexander McQueen.
5. Care sunt tendintele tale preferate din sezonul FW 2011-2012?Sezonul acesta e foarte deosebit de orice alt sezon de toamna-iarna pe care mi-l amintesc datorita bogatiei coloristice prezente pe toate catwalkurile. De la tonurile de albastru roial, intens, la toate nuantele posibile de rosu (imi place in mod deosebit nuanta burgund), la mustar, verde smarald, mov pruna, zmeura, galben citron, portocaliu, turcoaz... In sfarsit, am scapat de tirania negrului (sau griului sau a camel-ului - va mai aduceti aminte de anul trecut, cand 'camel was the new black'?). Pe de alta parte, imi plac foarte mult croiurile inspirate din anii '60 si '40, formele a la Balenciaga, imprimeurile grafice sau florale, mixurile artsy de imprimeuri sau texturi diferite (vezi Dries Van Noten), paltoanele in culori vii sau color block, rochiile si fustele midi sau maxi.
6. Ai un fashion icon preferat?Preferat, nu cred. Ar fi mai multe icon-uri pe care le admir: Audrey Hepburn, Anna Karina, Coco Chanel, Daphne Guiness, Anna Dello Russo, Tilda Swinton, Twiggy, Edie Sedgwick, Susie Bubble, Carrie Bradshaw sau Blair Wladorf, din serialele care au ridicat moda la rang de obsesie si fetis.
7. Care crezi ca sunt locurile din Bucuresti unde se intalnesc cele mai fashionable persoane?Nu am fost in Bucuresti doar de cateva ori, cand am vazut persoane foarte fashionable prin centru, pe la targuri vintage sau prin cluburi.
8. Cum ai interactionat pana in prezent cu lumea modei?Sunt studenta in anul 3, la design vestimentar, si blogger incepator, deci sper sa va pot povesti mai multe la capitolul asta peste cateva luni:)
9. In final, spune-ne un truc vestimentar.
