Victoria Beckham, the former Spice Girl turned fashion designer, has opened up about her struggles to reinvent herself in a new Netflix documentary series. The series, titled “Victoria Beckham,” traces her journey from her early days as a pop star with the Spice Girls to her current role as a successful fashion designer. Beckham candidly shares her experiences, revealing that she “desperately wanted to be liked” and was often perceived as a “miserable cow” due to her straight-faced public persona.
The documentary series explores Beckham’s transition from pop stardom to fashion, highlighting the challenges she faced in establishing herself as a credible designer. Former Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour admitted to initially having doubts about Beckham’s fashion credentials, saying, “Most of the celebrities who get involved in our world are not true designers.” However, Beckham proved her doubters wrong, and her brand has reported four consecutive years of sales growth, including a significant reduction in operating losses.
Beckham’s journey hasn’t been without its financial struggles, with her clothing label not making an operating profit since its establishment in 2008. However, she has persevered, and her brand is now poised for profitability. The series showcases her hard work, dedication, and business acumen, as well as her personal story of self-discovery and growth. With unprecedented access to Beckham’s world, the documentary promises to be a revealing and inspiring look at her life and career.
