Victoria Beckham has been through "so much" with her fashion empire over the years.
The 50-year-old designer switched fields after initially finding fame alongside Geri Halliwell, Melanie C, Emma Bunton and Mel B as part o the Spice Girls in the late 1990s and while it has been a "huge accomplishment" with her eponymous brand, she is "proud" to finally say that they have turned a profit.
She told Harper's Bazaar: "It’s a huge accomplishment. The company has been through so much over the last 17 years – ups, downs, restructuring... it’s been quite the journey. So, finally, to be able to say we’re profitable is something I’m so proud of, because it’s not an easy industry, and it’s getting harder and harder. To be able to say that I’m selling clothes right now, when you look at how luxury is struggling."
The 'Not Such An Innocent Girl' singer started displaying her collections at Paris Fashion Week in 2022 and it was only then that she realised she "had something" to give in the field of fashion.
She said: "Whenever I did a collection, I’d always think, it was because of this person, or it was because of that person. But when I went to Paris, what I realised was: I must have something to do with this. And I actually gave myself a little pat on the back."
