Victoria Beckham has insisted that she is just like the average woman, especially when it comes to her catwalk creations.
In a photoshoot for the British edition of high fashion glossy Harper's Bazaar, the married mother of four said that she feels she represents the general public - when it comes to testing out her own designs.
Victoria explained that since she became a designer she prefers to wear her own clothes to feel more at one with the customer. But last year she was left disappointed she couldn't try on her designs as she was pregnant with her much longed-for daughter Harper.
She told Harper's Bazaar: 'We always joke that we have this fabulously gorgeous 17-year-old model who is six-foot-whatever and then I say "OK, I’m going to put it on. I stand for the general public here".
'It’s how I work. I found it really difficult when I was pregnant and I couldn’t do that. It’s part of the process - I’ll stand here in my knickers and start draping fabric over myself. It was very hard when I didn’t have my body.'
That's a claim that stretches the imagination somewhat. The average woman is a size 12, and probably unable to afford a dress from the Victoria Beckham collection - adored by the A-list - and costing thousands. Victoria's designs can be seen on many celebrities who have snapped up her creations to wear at red carpet events, inlcuding The Hunger Games star Jennifer Lawrence and new mother and singer Beyoncé.
