It’s only a matter of days until Victoria Beckham’s hotly anticipated store opens in London and *Grazia *can reveal that shoppers may see the designer herself should they visit the Dover Street space. In fact, the whole Beckham brood might well be roped into working for the business.
Speaking exclusively to *Grazia *at New York Fashion Week last week, Victoria said, ‘I love retail – I’ll be taking appointments with people… maybe go behind the till. Who knows maybe (my husband) David will be on the door and (my son) Brooklyn will be a Saturday boy.’ Can you imagine? But while the idea of being served by the designer herself might seem intimidating, Victoria hopes the store will be inviting.

She added, ‘It’s a very special space, I’ve dreamt of having a store for a long time. It is conceptual – I want people to come in and feel welcome and comfortable.’ The 7,000 sq ft Mayfair shop has been created by architect Farshid Moussavi. As well as selling the 40-year-old designer’s main collection, it will stock the sister range, Victoria Victoria Beckham, and accessories.
So, after taking New York Fashion Week by storm (where Victoria debuted her first shoe line) and opening her first store, what’s next? She told us, ‘Well, the next thing someone would normally ask is am I pregnant? I seem to be asked that regularly but no, I’m not having another baby – there’s enough going on.’
