Victoria Beckham has just launched her new line, her second collection of women’s clothes. She said that she had always wanted to design dresses for women with which women could go to the toilet! Her recently launched women’s clothesline was beautifully designed in a manner that it determined the features of the outfits.

She said: “I put all the clothes on myself and walk around in it, and I know what feels comfortable. I know how a dress should sit…” That was Victoria Beckham in a confident mode. She revealed her desire to make a dress that had a fitting zip for better undoing. She further explained the necessity of high end zips,”… I wanted a zip that undoes from both ends because then you can either put the dress on over your head or step into it - and also, you know, going to the loo wouldn’t be this whole big problem.”

Victoria also revealed that being “Posh” Spice made it difficult for pursuing her career in Fashion. Life was hard to balance her two-fold career. She feels relieved that she could come back to the Fashion world and make her dreams as designer come true.

She added to Britain’s The Times newspaper: “Being in the Spice Girls, fashion-wise, probably didn’t open any doors. If anything, it shut doors and I have had to bang them down.”

Victoria Beckham was delighted when she was asked to model underwear for Italian fashion house Armani. She happily agreed so that she could show off her newly-toned body. The new underwer line by Armani will feature a spices Posh !

The former Spice Girl will debut as the “worldwide testimonial” for Emporio Armani Women’s underwear in the Spring/Summer 2009 campaign, with shots that were taken last month (Oct08).

And the mother-of-three worked extra-hard to get the right shape and the perfect figure for the shoot. Posh Spice now boasts of a well toned body that looks ageless. Armani must be overjoyed to have pulled in Victoria as she has keptto her fashion and excercise regime.

She says, “I started running regularly about a year ago and when this campaign came about, I began working harder every day. And this morning I got on the treadmill and said, ‘OK then - this is my last chance! ”

Victoria had featured in Marc Jacobs’ campaign earlier this year (08) and she felt honoured to take part in another international fashion shoot.

She adds, “It’s a huge compliment being asked to be in the campaign and to be part of the worldwide campaign for Emporio Armani underwear. “It’s really exciting to me. Mr. (Georgio) Armani is a lovely person and his team is fantastic, so it’s a really exciting project for me to be involved with. And hopefully they will see a huge response.”

Jennifer Hudson has moved on with her life. She currently features in a new Holiday campaign with the GAP. In the Ad, Hudson isĀ  smiling and she wears a red sweater. Hudson who was in hiding recently after she went through a tragic family slain affair. The ad launch features her as cheery.

Hudson was given full freedom to back out. According to Gap spokesperson Olive Doyne, “She said she wanted to be a part of it and that we should move forward.” Hudson was photographed for the ad by Michael Thompson back in July in New York City. Hudson had conveyed her best wishes and blessings so that the clothing-store giant was assured of her wish to use her image.

The timing for the ad might not seem appropriate to many, but the real picture is Hudson has to move on with her life. She cannot sit mourning away her time. The ad uses the tagline “Shine Your Own Star,” seems apt since Hudson begins with a new shine. She needs this launch more than GAP. The ad can be seen in magazines and newspapers and on billboards in New York and Los Angeles.
