Naomi Campbell inspired Posh Spice to design jeans


Who better than a crazy spitting, cell phone throwing super model to inspire you to create fashion? Victoria Beckham has made a pair of jeans for her dVb line based off of Naomi Campbell's look.

Celebrity clothing designers: Who would you wear?


Lots of celebrities have taken to "designing" clothing lines. And, while some of them make sense -- who wouldn't want to dress like Penelope Cruz? -- some are questionable, to say the least. Check out this list of celebrity clothing designers and then cast your vote -- who's line would you be most likely to wear?

Posh gives up "singing" for full-time fashion focus


Posh Spice, never what you would call a classically trained vocalist anyway, is giving up singing so she can give all of her attention to her fashion line, dVb.

Oooh, this is a tricky one. Do we comment on her dubious singing abilities in the first place, mentioning the rumors that she was lip-synching on the Spice Girls' recent tour? Or is it more germane to bring up the recent dVb failure in the US, including the ignominy of getting outsold by trampy Heidi Montag?

Paris Hilton becomes an SJP wannabe, steals Posh's thunder


Paris Hilton certainly made an impact in London when she stopped by Selfridges to promote her new fragrance, Can Can. She not only channeled Sarah Jessica Parker by wearing an unusual hat (which, though we're in the minority, we kind of love -- just maybe not on Paris), she also stole the spotlight from Victoria Beckham who had decided to actually take the trouble to promote her denim line down the street at Harrods.

Posh suing Rock & Republic?


Contrary to earlier reports, it seems that Victoria Beckham is warming up to the American way of life faster than we previously thought possible. With her fashion line's sales in the crapper, she's decided to do what any red blooded American would do: find someone else to blame and sue their ass.

Thus far, Posh's only real success with denim has been her pricey signature line that she designed for Rock & Republic in 2004. After a couple of years however, the relationship between Victoria and the premium denim label went bad, and the two parted ways. Now that dVb is hitting the discount stores, it seems that Posh he reconsidered the deal with R&R. According to the Daily News, Beckham Brand Ltd is seeking $100 million in lost earnings.

Heidi Montag's line outsells Posh's line


This is a war of the divas. What, wait? Heidi Montag isn't a diva. She might wish she were, but in spite of Spencer's whining, she's not there yet. Now, Posh, on the other hand is a diva in every sense of the word. But no matter what we classify them as, they both have clothing lines and they're duking it out.

Posh's jeans sink to new low


Sure, sales weren't exactly stellar, and Posh's meager PR efforts weren't helping the situation -- but this is a new low! The Spice Girl's dVb jeans (you know, the ones that don't show off your bulge), were going for upwards of $290 at trendy LA boutiques. Now, however, they're lining the racks of Loehmann's, an "off-price specialty retailer" (read: the discount store for clothes that nobody wants).

And it's not just a couple pairs, either. An accomplice for gossip queen Perez Hilton found entire racks full of them in a Roseda, CA store -- all priced at a considerably more affordable $69.99.

Marc Jacobs: Victoria is a thumb-sucker


Chalk up another seemingly incomprehensible ad concept for Marc Jacobs and advertising crew. As opposed to the last go-round, where they managed to make Victoria look like some kind of Iggy Pop stunt double, Jacobs' April ad has the former Spice Girl curled up in a fetal position and sucking her thumb.

Why the yellow kitchen gloves? Is that a hygiene thing? Maybe this image is supposed to represent the uncertainty Posh feels about her lagging clothing line, or just life in the States. It's colorful, I give it that.

Victoria Beckham to design men's jeans that don't show off their junk

David Beckham has always been very open about the fact that he basically lets Victoria Beckham use him for playing dress up. She serves as his wife and stylist. What a talented multi-tasking woman!

Well, Mrs. Becks wants all to guys to learn how to wear their jeans like David. So she's going to make it easy for them and design a line of men's jeans to be sold though her brand, dVb. And the most important feature of these jeans? Well, she thinks men should absolutely, under no circumstances show off their junk."I think guys should wear jeans big and baggy, with a big pair of boots or flip-flops; exactly how you see David when he's out in his jeans and T-shirtDo not pull them up tight and have your bulge showing. Let it hang!"

About the style of what she's designing Victoria says, "These are not skinny jeans. They are what I call proper men's jeans. If you are a man that likes really skinny jeans, very fashiony, this isn't really the line for you. I didn't want anything too tight around the crotch. That really repulses me. It might be fashionable, but you are not going to get that from dVb."

Seriously, why does Victoria have such a fascination with talking about David's manhood? Yeah, anyone else remember when she compared his penis to a tractor exhaust pipe?!? Yes, it's true. David Beckham is hotter than the sun. But that's still T.M.I. regardless of who we're talking about!

Anyways, back to the subject at hand. I will admit that David does wear his jeans very nicely. But the dVb version will be retailing for about $220-$285. Guess I won't be buying my hubby a pair of these anytime soon.

Browse through the gallery to see David Beckham looking gorgeous in jeans. Because when it comes to His Royal Hotness, there's no such thing as too much of a good thing.
