Victoria Beckham was interviewed by the London Times yesterday as part of her press junket for the Victoria Beckham Collection. She chatted about developing her dress collection, how she is strict about her boys’ manners, how hard it was to make the move from pop star to fashion designer and more.
She also talked about her designing process. She doesn’t sketch, but she thinks that’s nothing to worry about:
Do I draw? No. Then again, nor do lots of designers. But I put it all on myself and walk around in it, and I know what feels comfortable. I know how a dress should sit. I’ve worn so many in the past and when I see the photographs I think, crikey, my boobs are up round my neck again because the corsets are too short and not cut high enough. Like I knew I would spend a lot on the best-quality zips because, like many women, I’ve had my share of crappy zips. I wanted a zip that undoes from both ends because then you can either put the dress on over your head or, if you don’t want to mess up your hair, you can step into it – and also, you know, going to the loo wouldn’t be this whole big palaver.
