Victoria Beckham... Sold Out Not!

Sold out in Selfridges within hours of launching it, almost sold out on net-a-porter, and now the most sought after collection this season, Victoria Beckham collection , is available at Villa Moda Kuwait. The collection consists of ten structured-in-design dresses inspired by the 1950s glamour. Surprisingly, all the hemlines of the dresses end at least 2 inches below the knee, which I did not expect from VB, mind you, they do fit like a glove but not necessarily flattering to all body shapes.

According to her site, Only 400 examples of the entire collection will be sold worldwide. And you have to watch the movie on her site about the collection. It is actually funny.

Honestly? I wasn't very amused by the collection. They looked nicer on the website than the did in real life. I would only buy one dress (#9) as the cut and design of the dress was the most distinctive one out of the remaining 10.

I love her dresses! The yare sold out on net a porter, atleast the ones i want are. I don't know if they are in Dubai or not, I need to check. The thing is even though they are gorgeous they are way too over priced.

Out of all the countless celebrity fashion lines,
THIS along side Mary-kate & Ashley O's The Row and Elizabeth & James, and Andre 3000's Benjamin Bixby (fantastic for men) are the only ones that are good and worth it.

I this these dresses and gorgeous and timeless, and definitely for the "skinny/fit" body.
Madonna was wearing the black stapless one in her latest steamy photospread on W.

despite never liking VB nor her dress sense, i was pleasantly surprised with her line. but come on, first out and straight next to the big names at selfridges...... i am sorry but the line does not deserve THAT much credit. yes, she loves roland (mouret), yes she is under simon's (fuller) wing but must she really come up with something as structured as RM? personally i just think this is a far cry from who she is trying to be, not to be compared with The Row which does actually represent the girls and they do the brand justice.
oh well oh well

Check out Issa at Al Othman, they have the famous "Lukcy" dress. But maybe it's a bit too casual for graduation. What's ur budget?
Aishah said…
wow there is a dress at 300??
the cheapest dress at Net-a-porter is being sold for around 1100 pounds and i think they nearly have the whole collection now theyre all sold out and only have a creme one being sold at 1500 pounds! but 300Kd is a good price compared to the prices of the other pieces in the collection!!
and Heidi Klum wore a black on for i think a victorias secret event its quite flattering on her then again what isnt!! ;)

Glamorous Evening

I'm a wee bit late with my Dubai posts, which I have visited during the Eid holiday, as I've been quite busy lately with some side projects. There is just not enough time to get everything done, need to work on my time management skills. Oh well, you know what they say, better late than never. So in this post I'll be sharing with you some few evening gowns and cocktail dresses which took my breath away, three of which I've spotted at Symphony Boutique located at Dubai Mall. Check out this glamorous Zac Posen (if my memory serves me right) strapless gown shown in the photo above, I know that Zac Posen is stocked in AlOthman boutique as well, not sure if they have this one in stock. Symphony also had this extravagant red gown with puff embroidered sleeves on the window display also by Zac Posen . And while shopping around Bloomingdale's Dubai , I spotted this block-colored cocktail dress which looked very familiar and then when I read the brand's name

Delicate Armour

Raised in Dubai and living between London and the UAE, Central Saint Martins graduate, Delia Covezzi , has been quietly cultivating her reputation as a talented clothing and accessory designer. Following successful apprenticeships with Stella McCartney and Tata Naka, she went on to design and produce exclusive collections for a range of top boutiques in Europe and the Middle East. I took a look at Covezzi's S/S 2010 collection and immediately noticed the mix of contrasting elements of her pieces. Sharp tailoring in hues of silver and dove grey, and classic black and white, with a hint of bold coral hues and delicate graphic prints, from soft French chiffons to crisp Italian organza; from textured pearl satins to finely-ribbed silk twills; adding an edge to the feminine yet bold look. According to Delia , the S/S 2010 collection draws inspiration from the visual and structural similarities between armour and bird’s plumage. Delia’s fascination of how something so strong and st
