Victoria's clothes criticised

Los Angeles - Victoria Beckham's sense of style has been questioned by a top designer.
French clothing guru Christian Audigier claims the former Spice Girls singer - who now works as a fashion designer, and released her latest range of dresses at New York Fashion Week earlier this year - is in a difficult position as she has no formal training.
He explained to BANG Showbiz: "Victoria, I'm not sure about. I like her, she's a nice girl, but she is not completely my style.
"I have seen some of her designs - they are very simple. It's difficult for an artist or a singer to enter into the world of fashion.
"They need to be with a real pro because you can't just rely on your name to help you sell. The way to sell and who to sell to and what you want to accomplish, these are all things you will need help with if you're entering into the world."
Despite being unsure of Victoria's fashion credentials, Christian - who is behind the Ed Hardy and Von Dutch brands - was glowing about her soccer star husband David.
He enthused: "I believe David Beckham has amazing style, he has this British and European twist with him. And he always dresses himself, picks everything himself.
"He can wear so many things well, whether it is shirts, a T-shirt with boxer shorts, or alternatively the Armani advert he did recently - he just looks great. He has a great attitude, I just love it.
"He is a real tough guy with his style, very English, like a Guy Ritchie movie or something like that, I like that."
Christian Audigier was in the UK to launch his range of fine wine and globally launch his champagne, for further information please go to www.christianaudigierwines.com.
