From Telegraph.co.uk
So step forward, once more, the former Posh Spice. Victoria Beckham last week debuted her freshly cropped hair (a move to distance herself from the other WAGs) during an evening out with her friend Christopher Bailey, Burberry's creative director. The outing was duly "papped".
A few days later, an item appeared in a newspaper diary alleging that Bailey had received a severe dressing down from Burberry bosses for socialising with the Queen of WAGs. It was rumoured that the company, which has spent years trying to shrug off its chav associations, saw the publicity as a major setback.
No one has done more than Bailey to transform Burberry into a major fashion player with consistently praised fashion collections - he is one of the industry's key trendsetters. For the record, sources at Burberry deny Bailey was reprimanded following the dinner.
All the same, would Burberry's new Manor bag be quite so desirable if it was given a high-profile outing by Mrs Beckham? Would we all be lusting after the label's limited-edition gold trench if she had been there first?
The Tom Ford Quotes were also in this article.
