Watch out, Victoria Beckham is going to inflict yet another overpriced clothing line on the public. Or what she would like to call 'up scale' dresses:
The singer turned designer revaled to industry bible WWD, during a recent interview about her new scent, Signature for Her, that she is currently working a new collection of sophisticated, high end dresses, that she intends to unveil in September during the international collections.
'It will be something completely different from what I've ever done. I'm just putting it together at the moment, they will be very up scale dresses and likely to start at around $1,200 retail. I'm going to be using very expensive fabrics and finishes, lots of embroideries.'

Victoria already has a line of jeans that retails for upwards of $250 a pair, which she has been criticized for not promoting. They aren't selling particularly well, probably because as Celebitchy pointed out, if you're going to buy a pair of expensive jeans you would get a more recognizable brand.
I think the same would go for Victoria’s new fashion line. If I was going to lay down $1,200 on a dress I’d probably buy something from a real designer. Posh has said in the past that there is a 'stigma' attached to being her, telling GMTV Britain that while she was a pop star and a footballer’s wife, she loves high fashion. I think this stigma is going to be attached to her clothes also.
While loving fashion may be a prerequisite to being a designer, I would have to say that it doesn't actually make you qualified to design clothing.
Posh is shown at the CFDA Fashion Awards on 6/2/08. That's not one of her designs. Thanks to WENN for these photos.
