Victoria Beckham unveils dress collection

Former Spice Girls star Victoria Beckham has visited UK to promote the launch of her new range of dresses.

Designed to retail at the London and Manchester stores of Selfridges, the 12 garments are expected to sell for between £650 and £1,900.

Talking to the Times about the items, the wife of David Beckham explained that while she does not draw her designs for clothing, she did have an idea of what to focus on when creating the garments.

She told the newspaper: "I knew I would spend a lot on the best-quality zips because, like many women, I’ve had my share of crappy zips.

"I wanted a zip that undoes from both ends so you can put the dress on over your head or, if you don’t want to mess up your hair, you can step into it."

Earlier this year, it was announced that the star is set to star in an advertising campaign for Armani’s range of lingerie.
