From Spice Girl to fashion mogul: 'Victoria Beckham' offers an intimate look at the icon's life

From the film-makers behind the Emmy-award-winning “Beckham” comes “Victoria Beckham”, a brand-new documentary, which will chronicle the life of the renowned fashion and beauty entrepreneur.

The three-part series, which will be released on Netflix on October 9, will go behind the scenes to give fans of Posh Spice unprecedented access into her glamorous empire.

As arguably the most famous sports WAGs (wife and girlfriends) in history, the 51-year-old mother of four and wife to football icon David Beckham will also provide access to her high-profile family life in the production

And if the trailer for the show, which was released on Wednesday, September 17, is anything to go by, viewers are in for a wild ride.

It opens with Victoria comically addressing decades-old allegations that she doesn't smile, while the camera cuts to her wearing a “Fashion Stole My Smile” t-shirt while the paparazzi scream, “Victoria smile”.

“People thought I was that miserable cow that never smiles, but I do, don’t be shocked,” she replies during a snippet.

It is clear that “Victoria Beckham” will include the icon’s signature humour and wit, which earned her widespread praise in David’s documentary.

In one scene from “Beckham”, she went viral after she claimed that she grew up in a "very working-class" family, which led to David playfully interrupting her.

She went on to confess that he owned a Rolls-Royce in the 1980s. Victoria later embraced the moment by releasing merchandise featuring the "My Dad Had a Rolls-Royce" phrase. 

The former pop star rose to worldwide fame in the 90s as Posh Spice, one of the members of the Spice Girls alongside Mel B, Melanie C, Emma Bunton and Geri Halliwell.

In the trailer, she opens up about this chapter in her life as well as the challenges she experienced when the group split up.

“Performing was my dream. The Spice Girls made me accept who I am, and then all of a sudden, it stopped.”

“Victoria Beckham”, directed by Nadia Hallgren and from the makers of ”Beckham”, which won an Emmy for Outstanding Documentary or Nonfiction Series last year, also delves into the tabloids’ obsession with Victoria and her family over the years.

Meanwhile, her ascension in the fashion world will also be unpacked and through interviews with those close to Victoria, including David, streamers will get more insight into the mogul and her relentless ambition.

This includes actress Eva Longoria, a close friend of Victoria, who says in the documentary in regards to her foray into fashion: “Everybody’s warning her, ‘you will not be accepted.”

The Victoria Beckham Fashion and Victoria Beckham Beauty owner even admitted in the trailer: “People thought, ‘she’s a pop star, she's married to a footballer, who does she think she is?”

The documentary will also feature Victoria and her team as they prepare for her brand’s biggest ever show at Paris Fashion Week, with Vogue’s Anna Wintour sternly looking on from the front row.

The trailer ends with even more humour, this time aimed at Victoria’s lack of cooking skills, with her and David laughing as she admits: “Let's be honest, I couldn't actually make a cheese sandwich very well.”
