According to the people over at allwomenstalk.com, “You would think … that Britney Spears had a yard sale and the Spice Girls got all the hot pieces,” and looking at the pictures of Geri Halliwell at the Victoria’s Secret Fashion show at LA’s Kodak Theatre last Thursday night, November 15th, they may not be far wrong. Geri was sporting the very same gold beaded spring/summer 2004 Roberto Cavalli dress that was worn by Britney and a host of other celebrities, including among them Scarlett Johansson, back in early 2004. In addition it seems that her band mate, Emma Bunton, couldn’t stop herself from dipping into Britney’s archive either, wearing another beaded Roberto Cavalli dress, this time from the fall 2002 collection, that Ms Spears first wore when she performed at the 2002 San Remo festival.

That said, it is the season to sparkle and if you, like the Spices, can’t control your magpie-like tendencies you should check out www.sequinqueen.com. All items are handmade and there is a made to measure service. We love their long silver sequined gown (item #1001-109) and their fully beaded midnight blue gown (item#1001-109). If you feel like a taste of the real thing, but haven’t quite got the Spices’ bank balance, head over to www.yoox.com where you can choose from a wide range of designers, including Roberto Cavalli, at discounted prices.
