Victoria Beckham has long said that she has left music behind her and that she wants to focus on fashion and it seems that her hard work has finally paid off.
Those of you in fashion industry with a fashion magazine contribution will no doubt already be well aware of the result of the British Fashion Awards held at The Savoy last night, but for those of you who don’t – Posh won the British Fashion Award for Designer Brand.
When accepting her award, Victoria got a little bit choked up and was holding back tears. Speaking to reporters backstage, she said: 'It really does mean so much, that's why I got so emotional when I was up there. I can't thank my team enough. Without them I wouldn't be in this position. I always dreamed this would happen one day, so it really is a dream come true. This is such a big deal for me. I'm just really overwhelmed, and trying to keep it together and speak, and then I just came bursting out crying.'
The Designer of the Year award went to head designer at Alexander McQueen, Sarah Burton. It’s unsurprising, since one of her creations was the most viewed (and talked about) dresses of the year – Kate Middleton’s wedding dress.
