Victoria Beckham has shown her latest collection at New York Fashion Week

The former Spice Girl presided over a parade of 23 structured, tailored dresses displayed in a suite in the Waldorf Towers, dressed in a pewter silk number from the collection.

Using a pallet of purples, red, greys and blacks, Victoria’s latest designs do not include corsets, in a marked difference to the garments she showed in her Spring/Summer 09 collection.

She explained: “This time, we have made the corset as a separate item. I’ve talked to my customers and found they would rather have the option of wearing the dresses without.”

The 34-year-old star has also opted for shorter length dresses, chopping much of this collection off at the knee rather than letting them sit mid-calf.

As well as the shorter styles there are also full length numbers which boast a fold across the bust in a nod to Victoria’s Vera Wang wedding dress.
