Victoria Beckham has recalled how husband David splashed out on a new Prada suit just to “impress her” on their first date after she said she liked the brand.
The former Spice Girl-turned-fashion designer, 50, has opened up about the early days of their relationship in an episode of the new documentary In Vogue: The 90s, which started streaming on Friday on Disney+.
Waxing lyrical about her love for designer clothes, she tells the camera: “Versace, Prada, and Gucci, they were my go-to designers. What was it they were getting right at the time? I suppose they really understood the power of celebrity.
“The Italians embraced that. When I first met David in 1997 he'd heard that I was the Spice Girl that liked the designer clothes.”
She continued: “So, after me going to a couple of football matches and I would say, you know, me sort of like, pursuing him, he'd probably say me stalking him, we arranged to go out on a date together.
“He's like, "I don't know what to wear, she's the one who likes designer clothes," and so he actually went out and bought himself a full Prada look for our first date, to impress me.'
Laughing, she added: “Which it did, because it was Prada.”
The Viva Forever hit-maker is set to dish more details of their life together after it was announced that she has landed her own Netflix docuseries.
It follows the success of previous docuseries Beckham by the streaming giant, which followed the rise of David from a young talented footballer to England captain.
