Victoria the entrepreneur
With the help of her £30 million fashion empire, Vitora Beckham has been given the title of the UK's number one entrepreneur.
The 40 year-old who began her career in the music industry with girl band 'The Spice Girls' managed to knock the likes of Sir James Dyson and Vivienne Westwood off the top spot.
At the beginning of her fashion career, Victoria's fashion brand was worth just one million, now, five years on is worth a staggering thirty million. The title was given t
o the designer by Management Today. Her current worth is £45 million higher than footballer hubby, David. The margin is undoubtly going to continue to grow with the growth of her recognition within the infustry.
Victoria took her first steps into the fashion industry back in 2008 when she launched her first major line. Another (slightly cheaper) line was released in 2011. Also in 2011, the brand was named the UK's designer brand of the year, presented by the British Fashion Awards.
One of the reasons why Victoria's work is highly credited by many is because of her obvious beliefs regarding animal rights. The designer, who is a keen supporter of the work done by animal rights organization PETA, went on to say she is "never to work with fur in any of her own fashion collections".
In 2013 BBC Radio 4 announced they had ranked her within the top 100 most powerful women in the UK within the fashion category.
With her four children, it's hard to imagine when Mrs Beckham finds the time to designs her collections., but one things for sure, she needs to keep up whatever she's doing right now! ▪
