Last night at former ‘Countdown’ TV presenter Carol Vorderman wore a grey Victoria Beckham Carmontelle cashmere-blend dress on the red carpet when she attended the ‘Reveal’ magazine party.
The press always give Carol a hard time about what she wears, but she looks fantastic for her 48 years, plus she’s not afraid of fashion.
A few years ago the press criticized her heavily for wearing Roland Mouret Galaxy dresses – she had a blue and green one.
They almost went as far a saying that she shouldn’t have been allowed to wear the dress, which was a favourite of many celebrities.
When I spoke to the Roland Mouret a few weeks ago about the horrible press Carol had received, he shared my disappointment at how the press had treated her.
He said, “I design for every woman”.
“She brought the dress, she looked fantastic in the dress, why shouldn’t she wear the dress?”
Why indeed.
This is not first time Carol has worn a Victoria Beckham dress.
A few weeks ago she was spotted wearing a Victoria Beckham Ribart felt dress which features a zip running from top to bottom down the back.
This dress was equally flattering, skimming her curves as she posed.
This dress is available to purchase from Net-A-Porter US for $1,875, but has sold-out on the international site.

How to Achieve the Classic Blowout
i think most of the hate they have against her is jealousy because she looks fantastic for her age and the dresses suit her well, and she is not afraid to take risks. know those are the stars i like to watch! go girl, forget the haters, you look fabulous.
You’re right it was jealously
She was quite frumpy before then she lost weight toned up and became fabulous.
The press hated that.
She looks amazing in both pics esp the first one. I don’t really get why the press give her a hard time if she looks like this.
Althouh Im not a fan of Victoria Beckham you cant deny that she looks great!! I dont even watch Countdown because of her.
I cant believe tey criticised her or wearing the RM Rolan Mouret dress! She wore it the bess from Cameron and Rachel!!
She looks amazing. Especially in the second black dress. Give me her in it over the model any day.
agreed
Why did they criticize her for wearing it? I don’t see anything wrong with it.. I actually don’t know who she is…
they are just snobs and ageist.
These VB dresses look like boring office wear.
She looks great!
