Victoria Beckham
The designer brought out her autumn-winter 2021/2022 collection and is one of the first to introduce digital fashion. Her strategic vision is to recognize where you are right now and where you dream you're going to be. Victoria's pieces are cuts that are between the waist and hip and range from the tight to the haberdasher. In addition, the materials are lightweight and alternate with thicker ones varying the color palette from the neutral to the explosive of the floral prints. The important thing for this fashion designer is to combine the concept of the practical and the beautiful, uniting utility with dreaming.
