Body blow for Posh

-

SHE says her new VB Body collection ‘celebrates the female form’ and she wants ‘to see women all over the world wearing these pieces’. But Victoria Beckham, right, and her ‘all-inclusive’ approach has sparked some scepticism. ‘Her purpose to empower women falls short when the body-conscious line is modelled solely by size 8 women,’ says beauty expert and body-positive campaigner Joanna

Kenny. ‘Celebratin­g a woman’s body isn’t about designing clothes to flatter or hold you in – it’s about letting go of the narrative that only certain body types are allowed to be “out”.’

YOU might expect the first anniversar­y of the death of the 7th Marquess of Bute to be a mournful occasion, but family and friends celebrated his life last week with a bagpipe procession – and piggy-back rides! The nearest and dearest of ex-racing driver John Crichton-Stuart, who died from cancer at 62, gathered on the Isle of Bute for a memorial – including (pictured left to right) model Kesewa Aboah, 27, Johnny’s daughter Lola and Kesewa’s sister Adwoa. Lola, 22, shared photos, while Adwoa, 29, posted videos of the family riding on each other’s backs, writing: ‘To the moon and all the stars and back again. Family is everything. Love always. Johnny Forever.’
