My Take
Victoria Beckham is my favorite case study in reinvention done with discipline. Plenty of pop stars attempt fashion; almost none survive the industry's snobbery, let alone earn an OBE for it. I find the arc from Posh Spice to respected designer genuinely instructive: she took relentless mockery, said little, and let the work answer. The famously unsmiling image strikes me as armor for a sharp, self-aware businesswoman who understood branding before the word was everywhere. Whatever you think of the Spice Girls' music, her second act required more nerve than her first, and I rate nerve very highly.
