Worst Dressed of 2007 - Victoria Beckham Tops Blackwell's List (VIDEO)
|
I’d like to add that she can’t sing or dance either, her reality show was a flop, and if she wasn’t married to David Beckham, she wouldn’t have gained enough notice to have made it onto the worst dressed list.  The top 10 roll-call of fashion dishonors also included:
_No. 2. Amy Winehouse — "Exploding beehives above, tacky polka-dots below, she's part 50's carhop horror."
_No. 3. Mary Kate Olsen — "She resembles a tattered toothpick-trapped in a hurricane."
_No. 4. Fergie — "Yes, when it comes to couture chaos, guess it's all in a name!"
The rest of the top 10 list included Kelly Clarkson, Eva Green, Avril Lavigne, Jessica Simpson, Lindsay Lohan and Alison Arngrim.

 Victoria Beckham will become an icon of our era. She is at the forefront of fashion and in close relations with designers and industry profesionals. Fashion is all about experimentation and reinvention. She does this to a t. Take Diors invention of the mini skirt in the 60's which critiquesinitially said must be a hoax and a joke, but later was the uniform of fashionable women. With every fashion icon comes risks and the opportunity to be slated by the press. However, she is constantly new and refreshing and interesting which is what keeps our voyerist culture so interested in her.By: Victoria Tremlin on Jan 9, 08 | 32 Trends | 43 Comments |
 As far as status goes, being a great fashion icon is up there with being the world’s tallest dwarf. Fashion is the sport of primarily wealthy anorexically inclined women who either care entirely too much about what other people think or insist on being the center of attention (usually both). If these rich narcissistic people would begin to focus the money and energy that they spend on fashion, on human and environmental issues, girls in the west would have better body images, children the world over would have better lives and likely we might begin to fix the planet. It’s nice to look good but it’s better to do good.By: Ben Preiss on Jan 9, 08 | 580 Trends | 66 Comments |

Although fashion is not world politics or science, it is an influential part of culture, economy and society. When we look back retrospectively at the UK and US popular culture of 60's for example, you think of twiggy. Does anyone know who the worlds tallest dwarf was then?
Yes, there is a lot to rectify with regards to fashion, celebrities and their relation to body image, which is changing slowly and i hope will change for the better in time. Whether Victoria Beckham or any other skinny celebrity has anorexia is one issue. But, when people use the word anorexia as verbal abuse towards someone (as you have just done) they themselves need to live the life of a sufferer for just one day. You talk about being anorexically inclined like it is a choice, little do you know it is a psychological state of mind that creeds into men and women's minds without them identifying it, eats away at their lives and will often stay with them for the rest of their lives. Please think before you throw the term around. By: Victoria Tremlin on Jan 9, 08 | 32 Trends | 43 Comments |

When I think back at UK and US popular culture of 60's, I think of the Beatles, Stones, Dylan, Joplin and the hippies, twiggy was a long faded memory. I did not use Anorexia as verbal abuse, merely pointed to an inclination. Anorexia is a disease of the west based on an obsessive fear of gaining weight along with a distorted body image. The fashion industry along with twiggy has long use young skinny women to promote a distorted and tragically unattainable body image to women. For most of the developing world the very possibility of attaining a normal weight let alone buying a $400 pair of shoes or a $4000 dress is just a dream. No Anorexia problem there. Please think about that before guilting me and defending an industry built on vanity, ostentation and greed. By: Ben Preiss on Jan 9, 08 | 580 Trends | 66 Comments |

My initial comment on your post was simply defending victoria beckham from a fashion point of view, for which it must be said she is not the least fashionable women around. If it was a debate about the destructive nature of the world today, i would suggest there are many more pressing issues than the influence of Victoria Beckham. I think we have both misunderstood each others point of view. By: Victoria Tremlin on Jan 9, 08 | 32 Trends | 43 Comments |
