Victoria Beckham
The former Spice
Girl had her own battle with the fashion critics when she abandoned her fellow Spices for the world of high fashion. But VB shrugged off the criticism and is now one of British fashion’s most respected names. Her style combines mannish trouser shapes and sleek shirting in a palette of stylish neutrals like cream, putty and navy. Her days of towering heels and lilac Birkin bags are long gone. Now she’s all about a cool brogue and an understated envelope clutch, both of her own design (naturally).
