NEW YORK, Jan 9, 2008 / FW/ — The highly anticipated Mr. Blackwell’s Best Dressed and Worst Dressed listed Academy-Award winner Reese Witherspoon as the best dressed for 2007, while Posh Spice, better known as Victoria Beckham was described by Blackwell as “one skinny-mini monstrosity after another, pouty ‘Posh’can really wreck-em.”

The Best Dressed list epitomizes good taste in women’s dressing as exemplified by Reese Witherspoon, Jemima Khan, Beyoncé, Angelina Jolie, Helen Mirren, Nicole Kidman, Katherine Heigl, Cate Blanchett and Kate Middleton (ANI) as these high profile women were seen in public, whether on the red carpet or not.

And though, it will be great to describe how these women are truly great dressers, it is the Worst Dressed List that actually warrants more comments.

Top of the list Victoria Beckham deserves her title. Mr. Blackwell aptly described her and then one can also add that whoever named her as a fashion icon must have been blind. Victoria Beckham is one of the last women on the planet can be considered as a role model for young girls when it comes to dressing.

Here’s the complete list, and you can make comments as you please.
