Women fashion news 2011: Victoria Beckham Checks Quality of Her Designs by Wearing Them: Victoria Beckham is the woman who values practicality of clothing and accessories. This why she pays such great attention to her own designs – she wants them to be perfect not only in terms of style but durability, too. And after her creations are made she checks the quality of those by wearing them personally (which we have seen so many times but thought she was just promoting them).Accessories designer Katie Hillier praises Victoria for diligence and creative potential. She stresses that Beckham is the one who makes designs:
She designs the bags. At the start of the season, Victoria gives me a huge folder full of all the stuff she’s seen that she likes, and we work through it together. Often I’ll come back with an idea and she’ll say no — she’s particularly picky about fabrics, which is unusual. Lots of people I’ve worked with are like, ‘It looks good — great!,’ but Victoria will lick her finger and wipe it on the cloth and be like ‘Uh-oh, I can see what’s going to happen to that in the rain!’ She wear-tests all the bags when they’re in development, taking them everywhere she goes. All the bags are designed to fit into her life and that’s why they just work.”
