I know that everybody thinks that Victoria Beckham is some kind of super-fantabulous style icon, but really? I don't get it. I think that she's just a poor girl's version of Madonna, especially Madonna circa the sex book/Gaultier era, but also - and most disturbingly - Madonna during her creepy seventies lapses. I mean, you look at this pic, above, of her with Heidi Klum and Nina Garcia and an over-Botoxed Michael Kors, and it's like looking at candid shots from some has-been celeb's Super Seventies! costume party, what with Posh all wrapped up in what looks to be day-glo orange polyester* and Heidi looking like a taller, skinnier, hornier Debbie Harry. (Michael and Nina, to their credit, look normal. Ish. Michael's looking a bit gay-cyborg, but whatever. You see that every day.)
So, yeah, I just don't get why anyone would really care that she was a guest-judge on Project Runway. A guest judge on So You Think Can Be A Talentless Pop-Singer-Cum-Fashion-Designer, maybe, but the Runway? Don't get it.
(Yes, Posh-fans, I *know* that it is highly unlikely to be polyster, and that that clingy day-glo orange fabric is much more likely to have been spun by rare psychedelic silkworms and then woven by tiny Tibetan children into a shimmery, magically snag-free silk that sells for $60,000 per yard, but whatever. It looks like polyester, and what's more? It looks like polyester worn over a nude-toned half girdle. So.)
