I am not going to lie about my general expectations of Victoria Beckham as a 'personality in today's fast moving society' or how well she designs clothes. They have always been inevitably low. However the printed dresses at Victoria by Victoria Beckham SS12 were cats. And rain clouds. With pleats and petite collars. And every girl with a passion for fashion and way to much time to spend being such a goddam hipster wondering what air is on Tumblr knows that any of the latter attributes make up a dress that is literally ADORABLE. Considering I count myself as having 2 of 3 of those common characteristics, then yes, these dresses are ADORABLE.
If only the evil retail giants knew of this phenomenon. Sure they've picked up on the permanent pleating and peter pan collar phenomenon, but god help us if they ever discover the power of..
THE CAT
But seriously 'the cat' slapped onto almost any chain store swing dress is an INSTANT WIN! regarding the Transnational Coorporation Global takeover. Combine the 3; pleats, collar and cat, and you have ~MIND CONTROL~.
I'm not sure why this post on dresses has turned into a kind of globalization rant but I'm sure you have all worked out by now that all my interest in current affairs is generated to cover up my secret (by secret I mean public) love of dressing like a highly advanced 5 year old Tenenbaum. And if you're wondering why I've included a pseudo Miley Cyrus quote in the title, just ask my troubled conscience.
