Victoria
Beckham has revealed that on the lead up to presenting her collection at New
York Fashion Week, she often has many sleepless nights because there is so much
to prepare. The singer turned designer explains that just before the show, she
only sleeps "a few hours" because of how much she has to do: "I
don't sleep very much in the run-up to the show - a few hours a night, and the
night before it's touch-and-go whether there is any time to sleep at all. So
this season my hours awake far exceeded those asleep!"
Commenting
on casting the right models for her show, Victoria says she works with two
others to try and pick the girls who best represent the image of the label, and
the collection's aesthetic too: "It's an intensive process but together
with my stylist and my casting director we look to find girls who personify the
brand and the message of the season. Often it's about finding the right girl
for a specific look but quite a few of the girls from this show have walked for
me for a few seasons now, so it's nice to see the same faces coming back again
and I'm always so happy to see them. They make the clothes look so great."
Speaking
on how she celebrates the show once it's complete, the designer reveals she
usually goes for a brunch and then celebrates with her whole team: "I
always go for a quick brunch with David and a couple of other people to wind
down. Then I go back to the studio to raise a glass with the team who have
worked so incredibly hard to bring the show to fruition."
