Victoria Beckham reveals the one item she refuses to let daughter Harper borrow
The former Spice Girl often lets her only daughter borrow her makeup and certain items of clothing
Victoria Beckham has revealed that her Hermès handbag collection is off limits to her daughter Harper Beckham, even though the 13-year-old has been eyeing them up for years.
The former Spice Girl has grown her Hermès collection since 2004, when she purchased her first Birkin in a classic tan shade. Her designer-studded wardrobe now boasts several iterations of the infamous tote bag, including hot pink and lime green Birkin’s, as well as black, red and orange calfskin versions.
Victoria proudly owns a limited-edition purple ostrich and burgundy crocodile model and has also extended her collection to include a handful of Hermès Kelly bags in black and purple.
According to The Guardian, Posh Spice owns around 100 iterations of the Hermès bag, with her collection estimated to be worth over £1 million. Despite her extensive assortment, Victoria refuses to share her beloved bags with her 13-year-old daughter.
In a recent interview with Vogue, the fashion mogul spoke openly about sharing her closet with her children. She said: “I’m not too precious about [my wardrobe] unless it’s Hermès. When Harper eyes up those handbags [I say]: ‘Not just yet.’ I love my clothes, I look after my clothes, and they are there to be enjoyed.”
However, the designer takes Harper’s interest in her wardrobe as a compliment as she revealed the younger generation often approve of her outfits. “If one of the young ones wants to borrow my clothes, whether it’s Harper or one of the boys’ girlfriends, that’s flattery because they are significantly younger than me,” she added.
And it seems Harper has a growing appetite for fashion, as she hopes to follow in her mother’s footsteps.
At the launch of VB’s brand-new fragrance, My Reverie in New York, Harper confessed her hope for the future is to: “Create an amazing brand when I am older.”
