    Victoria Beckham finally hits High Street as 46-piece Mango collection is revealed – but some fans aren’t happy

    SINCE a little black dress made her an overnight fashion icon in the Nineties, Victoria Beckham has spent three decades earning her stripes.She launched her eponymous brand in 2008 but for years her pricey garments were out of reach for most — until now.Victoria Beckham launched a fashion brand in 2008Credit: Instagram/victoriabeckhamPosh has now hit the High Street thanks to a collaboration with Spanish giant Mango, pictured with Alexa ChungPosh has finally hit the High Street thanks to a collaboration with Spanish giant Mango, with chic pieces starting at £50, released on Tuesday.Victoria, 50, said: “I really wanted to speak to a wider audience in a way that feels relevant to my brand and retains my aesthetic and DNA.“I wanted to create a conscious, modern wardrobe which is perfect for the summer months.“There is a cheekiness but it is also very put together with a sensuality.”READ MORE ON POSHThe 46-piece collection goes up to £300, spanning silk camisole tops, tailored suit separates and chunky jewellery, and fashionistas have raved over the boxy cut blazer and sexy slip dresses.Victoria celebrated the launch with a glitzy showbiz bash in Spain with guests including Alexa Chung, 40, Emily Ratajkowski, 32, and her son Romeo’s on-off model girlfriend Mia Regan, 21.Mango hired Casa Cruylles, a 1960s luxurious white villa set in the cliffs of Costa Brava’s Port d’Esclanya, and the crew filled the property with hundreds of white candles and mannequins wearing the collection.Other guests included models such as Adwoa Aboah and British Vogue stylist Julia Sarr-Jamois plus bloggers and stylists.Most read in CelebrityDressed in a white suit from her collection, Victoria was seen hobbling on crutches after breaking her foot earlier this year in a fall at the gym.Later she sipped on spicy margaritas as they partied to one of Posh’s favourite DJ acts, Hale Zero, made up of brothers Carl, Greg and Raf Haley.After only hours of the collection’s launch some items had sold out, including a white trouser suit and a whimsical lilac gown.But Vic always knew those designs would fly out the door.She said: “I really love the easy slip dresses and the tailoring in particular. I have always played with both the feminine and masculine and want to offer an effortless women’s wardrobe that is versatile and wearable.“I was inspired by the iconic French film La Piscine, but more specifically by Jane Birkin’s character and her ease. She is all about natural beauty, is highly feminine and has a real sense of freedom.”From her days as a Spice Girl, Victoria favoured simple cuts and a streamlined silhouette, although she dabbled with quirkier designs during her solo pop years and at the start of her marriage to David — remember the bandana head scarfs and double denim?But her fashion compass has always swung back to the classics.I was the UK’s top Posh lookalikeLess is always more for Victoria, but she said: “Something might appear simple but so much thought and execution has gone into how that piece fits or sits on the body, the way it creates a strong silhouette.“It was an exciting challenge to embrace another creative process with Mango without compromising on the creative and desirability.“I am very proud of what we have created together. It feels very modern to bring the two brands together.“I also feel that we have a shared ethos, aesthetic and values around femininity, quality and a real love of product.”There appears to be just one snag — the size range.The 46-piece collection goes up to £300, spanning silk camisole tops, tailored suit separates and chunky jewelleryCredit: Victoria Beckham x MangoMia Regan and other stars joined Posh to celebrate the launch with a showbiz bash in SpainCredit: InstagramCritics have noted the largest items are a size 14, with some only available up to 12, even though Mango reaches a size 26 in other collections.‘Excluding so many potential customers’The blazers span from small to large, with measurements of the latter landing between a 12 and 14 at Marks & Spencer.One style influencer, Stephanie Yeboah, who notes she is a body image advocate and a size 22, shared her disappointment online.She wrote: “I tried on the only three pieces that had stretch because I wanted to see what they looked like on.“Brands need to see and recognise that bigger bodies are deserving of clothing too. I would have bought the black skirt.“The dress and the skirt were my favourites but, alas, Vic and Mango said no fatties allowed.“A shame. A missed opportunity.”Others added their voice online, with one writing: “Why aren’t you offering sizes above UK14? I’m a size 16-18.“I feel left out and like I’m not good enough. So disappointed.“You’re excluding so many potential customers. Real shame.”The brand stepped in to reply to the feedback, responding to one: “We are sorry to hear your dissatisfaction regarding the availability of sizes in our Victoria Beckham x Mango collection. We take this opportunity to inform you that we are working to add a wider range of sizes in our next collections.”Posh’s core collection under her Victoria Beckham brand ranges from XS to XXL (size 18) after she extended the measurements in 2022.I think people will be very surprised by how strong the fashion message is in every single garmentPoshIf Posh was bothered by the criticism, she didn’t let it show.In an interview with Vogue last week Victoria gushed that she hoped her Mango collection was “timeless”.READ MORE SUN STORIESShe said: “When you invest in one of these pieces you won’t just wear it for one season, they’ll be pieces you’ll keep in your wardrobe and wear time and time again.“I think people will be very surprised by how strong the fashion message is in every single garment.”Victoria with models Adwoa Aboah and Emily RatajkowskiThis suit jacket without lapels is £180, and these pleated suit trousers are £115Credit: Victoria Beckham x MangoGet this asymetrical dress for £190Credit: Victoria Beckham x MangoThis crochet dress with open back is £115Credit: Victoria Beckham x MangoPick up this pink Godets dress for £170Credit: Victoria Beckham x MangoI LOVE THIS BUT WHERE IS THE LBD?By Clemmie Fieldsend, Fashion Editor

    I SPENT my younger years as a die-hard Spice Girls fan, dressed up in Posh-inspired LBDs and insisting on having a bob haircut.
    Fast forward 19 years and I can finally get my hands on a piece of Victoria Beckham’s collection.
    Her range with Mango is filled with sophisticated and timeless pieces that suit my style down to a tee.
    From beautifully fluid dresses to elevated tailoring such as a deconstructed trench coat at £300, to classic tuxedo trousers for £150, the range is full of pieces you could pull out of your wardrobe in ten years and they would still be current.
    Other fashion and Victoria fans are impressed too, with items such as a black blazer, £180, and lilac dress, £170, already selling out.
    Even the more daring pieces are a hit, such as the £140 black semi-sheer blouse.
    The blazer screams Posh style and is now the look she is best known for.
    There are accessories too, and I love the oversized black basket bag at £170.
    For those who aren’t fans of muted wardrobe staples there’s also a floral printed frock and blouse for a splash of colour.
    But I can’t believe there is no Little Black Dress.
    Sure, it would have been a bit gimmick, but myself and other life-long Posh fans would have appreciated it. More

    Stunning style, ‘golden ratio’ face & Emmy-nominated roles… 3 reasons why Sydney Sweeney is pure class as she’s slammed

    SYDNEY SWEENEY has had a meteoric rise to fame and is drop-dead gorgeous – but that isn’t enough to impress one Hollywood producer.Carol Baum, who lectures at a US university, said of the 26-year-old film star: “There’s an actress who everybody loves now: Sydney Sweeney. I don’t get Sydney Sweeney . . . She’s not pretty, she can’t act. Why is she so hot?”Stunner Sydney Sweeney has had a meteoric rise to fameCredit: RexProducer Carol Baum has slammed Sweeney saying ‘She’s not pretty, she can’t act. Why is she so hot?’Credit: GettyBaum, who produced Eighties thriller Dead Ringers and Nineties hit Father Of The Bride, made the comments during a film screening.She also told the audience that she had watched Sydney’s rom-com Anyone But You on a plane and found it “unwatchable”.Representatives for Sydney, who also produced the 2023 film, starring Glen Powell, hit back: “How sad that a woman in the position to share her expertise and experience chooses instead to attack another woman. If that’s what she’s learned in her decades in the industry and feels is appropriate to teach, that’s shameful.“To unjustly disparage a fellow female producer speaks volumes about Ms Baum’s character.”READ MORE CELEB NEWSHere we show why Sydney is rightfully one Hollywood’s hottest properties.Swooney bod‘She’s got style, elegance and sex appeal – the whole package’ – by Clemmie FieldsendLIKE blonde bombshell Marilyn Monroe before her, Sydney knows what she is doing when it comes to fashion.As a general red carpet rule she makes the most of her tiny waist and bigger bust in corseted or low-cut, figure-hugging dresses.Most read in CelebritySydney is one of the sexiest stars in HollywoodCredit: Capture Media AgencyThe actress knows what she is doing when it comes to fashionSydney Sweeney fans concerned for star as she appears in ‘weird’ ad with ‘uncomfortable’ messageAt this year’s Vanity Fair Oscar Party she slipped into a plunging, white satin gown that bore a striking resemblance to the Some Like It Hot star’s iconic dress.The gown was actually worn by Angelina Jolie to the Academy Awards 20 years earlier.So big shoes that Sydney successfully filled.But the US actor hasn’t always been so confident with her curvy figure.She told Glamour magazine that she was insecure about her “big boobs” in high school and planned to have a reduction once she turned 18.Sydney is thankful her mum talked her out of the operation, saying her breasts are her “best friends”.She is now an expert at tasteful décolletage, never flashing too much or wearing garish styles to grab headlines.She’s just nailing it with glam gowns which complement her shape and, more importantly, make her feel good.I love her dress code. She’s got elegance, style and sex appeal.And, unlike Baum, she encourages other women to appreciate their looks – what’s not to like.Sydney has said: “I find empowerment through embracing the body I have.”That sense of self-awareness and maturity in your twenties isn’t something to be sniffed at. It doesn’t hit most women until they are in their forties, or even older.Sure, she looks a knockout and scientifically near perfect, but it is the conviction that comes with embracing how she looks that gives her the wow factor.And if she’s teaching that to younger or older women, then good for her.Swooney face‘Her proportions fit the golden ratio’ – by Miranda KnoxWHILE Baum reckons Sydney isn’t pretty, science says otherwise.Experts claim the actress has a “golden ratio” face, meaning she is more attractive to the human eye.Scientists claim Sweeney has a ‘golden ratio’ facePlastic surgeon Onur Gilleard, who has studied the science behind what makes a face aesthetically pleasing, says Sydney is practically perfect.The co-founder of New You Harley Street says her facial features are symmetrical and closely aligned, with perfect harmony and proportion.He says: “The ideal facial proportions, which can be applied both horizontally and vertically, are referred to as the golden ratio.“The length of the forehead should match the length of the nose, which in turn should equal the distance between the bottom of the nose and the chin.“Ideal lip dimensions include a width 1.6 times that of the nose and a ratio of the vertical height of the upper lip to that of the lower lip of 1:1.6.“The ideal chin position is considered to be 1mm behind the vertical line dropped from the upper lip.“Finally, high, well-defined cheekbones are a significant indicator of female beauty.“When analysing Sydney’s face, nearly all of her facial features adhere to these golden ratios, which is why she is referred to as a ‘classic beauty’.”Swooney roles‘Versatile star’s name will be in lights a lot longer than Baum’ – by Dulcie PearceSYDNEY is not just a pretty face.Having seen several of her big – and small – screen performances, there is no doubt that she has the ability to fill them.Sydney played the role of promiscuous teen Cassie Howard in drama EuphoriaCredit: AlamyThe actress played Olivia Mossbacher in the first series of Sky’s comedy-drama series The White LotusCredit: Home Box OfficeOne that really stuck with me was her portrayal of Reality Winner, a real-life whistle-blower, who released US government intelligence and whose five-year sentence was the longest ever imposed for the offence.The entire film is a re-enactment of the FBI interview that took place in a sweaty, disused bedroom in Reality’s house.Without a scrap of make-up, her hair tied back and wearing an unflattering outfit, Sydney is hypnotising in the role.While the film didn’t do much at the box office, it won her critical acclaim.And let’s not forget her scene-stealing turn as eye-rolling Olivia Mossbacher in the first series of Sky’s comedy-drama series The White Lotus.The spoiled, vengeful daughter act earned her an Emmy nomination for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Limited Series in 2022.In fact, she was up for two Emmy Awards that year, having also been acknowledged for her role as promiscuous teen Cassie Howard in TV drama Euphoria.And no genre is off limits, as the versatile actress plays a nun in this year’s gorefest, Immaculate, and was chosen to star in the music video for Rolling Stones single Angry, from their recent album Hackney Diamonds.She may have dipped her toe in the world of Marvel, with the disastrous Madame Web, but at her age she is allowed a few duffs.READ MORE SUN STORIESNot many, though, if women like Baum are on the warpath, doing down the looks and ability of her own sex.But Sydney’s name will be in lights a lot longer.The Rolling Stones shared a Sydney Sweeney-featured video for new song ‘Angry’Credit: The Rolling StonesSydney in new movie ImmaculateCredit: Alamy More

    Huge chart-topping pop star and Brit Award winner looks unrecognisable as they hit the catwalk in tiny pants in Paris

    SAM Smith has become famed for their distinct style and sense of fashion. So naturally, their look at the latest Vivienne Westwood show in Paris Fashion Week would be no different – going viral as they walked the runway in one of their most unique looks to date. Sam Smith walked in a colour clash of tartan for the Paris Fashion Week runwayCredit: GettyThe tight codpiece-style pants drew attention of those present at the eventCredit: GettyMaking a surprise appearance as a model, 31-year-old Unholy star Sam kept a poker face as they walked in two, vastly different, looks. In new pieces from the fashion house’s collection by Andreas Kronthaler, which puts an avante-garde spin on Renaissance style outfits, Sam stunned as they appeared in a swathe of clashing tartan. Most notably, a blue and green kilt-like pattern was fashioned up around their crotch and gathered around the hips, into tight underwear that exposed their bum as they walked. Partnered with a plain green v-neck sweater, Sam’s accessories completed the look with a red-and-orange tartan cape, and red-and-black knee high tartan socks emerging from a blue and orange, heelless platform stiletto heel. READ MORE SAM SMITHWith a black mesh headpiece held in place by a blue tartan cloth similar to that of the pants, Sam was aided down the runway by a giant wooden staff. Later on, in a complete contrast to the exposing tartan outfit, Sam re-emerged in an all-black, full-coverage outfit comprised of a silver dotted top and an enmeshed patterned floor length jacket exposing through holes what was underneath. Completed with a mesh veil and wide-rimmed hat that completely covered their eyes, Sam appeared to be blinded in the piece in the name of fashion, painted pale across the sheets to mark the contrast even further. The entire collection, included Sam’s outfits, were later posted on the official Westwood page with the Henry James quote: “A tradition is kept alive only by something being added to it.” Most read in ShowbizA secondary outfit completely covered the star from head-to-toe in all-blackCredit: GettyThe fashion loving star was a surprise addition to the line-upCredit: GettySam has become famed for their daring take on fashionCredit: GettySam has been a long-time lover of Vivienne WestwoodCredit: Getty More
