Victoria Beckham has saved the dress she wore on her first date with husband David Beckham to hand down to their daughter.

The former Spice Girls singer - who has Brooklyn, 15, Romeo, 12, Cruz, nine, and Harper, three, with the retired soccer star - recently sold many of her previously-worn items in aid of charity Mothers2Mothers but admits there were a few items she couldn’t bear to part with.

“I kept my wedding dress,” Beckham said. 

“I couldn’t give away the dress I first wore when I went out with David. It was a little high-street suede mini-dress so I’ve kept that for her.”

The 40-year-old fashion designer recently opened her first stand-alone store in London and though her working life has been hectic recently, she feels “very lucky” to have a good support network.

She told Stylist magazine: “It’s pretty full on when I get home, getting the kids’ tea, bathing them, doing homework.

“It’s a lot to do but I surround myself with the right people and just get on with it. I feel very lucky.”

Beckham previously admitted clearing out her wardrobe for the sale - which saw 600 items auctioned via TheOutnet website - was “cathartic”.

She said: “We went through 20 years of clothes and shoes, hundreds of boxes and rails, and it feels cathartic to have had such a big clear out for such a great cause.

“There was a lot of hilarity, some bad dressing up ’selfies’ and a few emotional moments, too.”
