Victoria Beckham says her daughter Harper is 'disgusted' by Spice Girls fashion

• Victoria Beckham told Vogue Australia that her daughter Harper is "disgusted" by her Spice Girls fashion.
• Harper recently told her mother that the length of her skirts as Posh Spice was "unacceptable."

Victoria Beckham recently told Vogue Australia that her nearly 11-year-old daughter Harper is "disgusted" by many of the outfits her mother wore during her tenure in the Spice Girls from 1994 to 2000.

Speaking about her daughter's style, Beckham said Harper is "not one of these kids who are going out with a full face of make-up and a crop top."

"She actually said to me recently, 'Mummy, I've seen some pictures of you when you were in the Spice Girls and your skirts were just unacceptable. They were just too short,'" Beckham continued, noting that her husband David enthusiastically agreed with Harper.

The couple's youngest child was not joking. "She was actually quite disgusted at how short my skirts were," Beckham said. "I said, 'Are you never going to wear skirts like that?' She said, 'Absolutely not.' We'll see."

Beckham was known for wearing a signature black mini dress as her alter ego Posh Spice. If she deviated from that look, she almost always gravitated toward other short, monochromatic skirts or dresses.

As Beckham matured and moved on from the Spice Girls, so did her style. Her name is now synonymous with fashion and beauty. Her eponymous clothing line launched in 2008, and a cosmetics line called Victoria Beckham Beauty debuted in 2019.

But Beckham's transformation into a businesswoman didn't change the media's scrutiny of her appearance and weight. In 2022, the 48-year old's diet is still making headlines. Her husband told the "River Cafe Table 4" podcast in February that Beckham "will very rarely deviate" from eating "grilled fish" and "steamed vegetables."

Beckham clarified elsewhere in her new Vogue Australia interview that what David meant is that "he's never met anyone who's more disciplined with the way that they eat."

She said that along with making her seem "boring," these stories' headlines make her worried for the criticism Harper will face online and in the media when she's older.

"Harper isn't on social media, so we don't have to worry about that just yet. But seeing how cruel people can be, yes it really does [concern me]," Beckham said. "She's at that age where her body is going to start changing, but it's about making sure that we communicate a lot as a family and she surrounds herself with nice friends. But it is quite terrifying, I can't lie."
