Sharjah24 – AFP: Victoria Beckham made her debut at Paris Fashion Week on Friday with a five-star cast of models, her family on the front row and a collection filled with edgy sophistication.
The former Spice Girl, 48 -- who has been away from the catwalk for two years -- is hoping that joining the most prestigious date in the fashion calendar can help pull her business out of debt.
She sent superstar model Bella Hadid out in an elegant green dress with long latex gloves, while her sister was dressed in a black trouser suit.
Beckham herself did not appear on the catwalk at the end of the show as is normal at fashion week.
Instead, she mixed with the crowd afterwards in the courtyard of the venue, the Val-de-Grace abbey, on the arm of husband David Beckham -- a rare move in the usually cordoned-off world of high fashion, and underlining her down-to-earth approach.
"It's London coming to Paris, and it's cool," she was heard saying to the crowd as she posed for pictures with son Brooklyn and his new wife Nicola Peltz.
On the catwalk, it was all heightened feminity: stilettos, cutouts, sheer tops, tight dresses -- and presented with a very traditional array of rake-thin models, not far from the stylist's own image.
Pink, blue, mauve and lilac -- there were spring colours among the black that is most dear to Beckham.
