Geri Horner reveals why she's ditched colourful clothing for an all-white wardrobe

April 2019 will be remembered for many things. For being long before Covid, back when we could afford to put petrol in our cars and everything.

But, much more importantly, for being the last time Geri Horner wore colour. Ever since she has been - like Michael Barrymore before her - All White.

Geri says she made the style choice to only wear white to make her life easier. She said: "Everything becomes really simple. It's like wearing a school uniform as an adult."

She further commented: "It matches with everything and I literally don't have to think in the mornings. It kind of looks like you've made an effort when you haven't."

And discussing such fashion choices, celebrity style expert Miranda Holder has said that it is also a way of reminding everyone how rich you are as "white or cream oozes luxury."

She further explained about it: "The lighter the colour, the less you can get away with cheap fabrics so well cut separates drape more beautifully and add instant elegance."

We suppose it must make doing the washing even easier, although with daughter Bluebell now 16, Geri must have to be on alert for a red sock being chucked in her laundry. Turning all mum's clothes pink would be the ultimate teen rebellion.

The singer - formerly known as Geri Halliwell - had worn some eyecatching outfits during her time in the Spice Girls during the 90s, when they were at the height of their fame.

This included wearing that iconic Union Jack dress to the Brit Awards in 1997 - with it named the most iconic outfit of the nineties and noughties by Nasty Gal this year.

The unforgettable ensemble has been replicated over the years by fellow celebrities and fancy dress party guests, with Geri having spoken about what went into the look last year.

The mother-of-two said that it was actually made from a tea towel - which she said had cost just £5 - that had been put onto the front of a Gucci dress for the music awards ceremony.
