Fans have applauded Victoria Beckham as she launches a plus-size clothing range for the first time.
The news comes after her company was reported to be facing losses of £53.9million after apparently struggling during the coronavirus pandemic.
The fashion icon, 48, has expanded her fashion line to accomodate plus-size body types - gong up to a size 18.
A source close to the label told The Mail on Sunday : "Finally Victoria has caught up. It’s great and she is extremely proud of her new collection.
"There is a whole new customer out there to buy her products but let’s face it, it has taken her a while but at least she is changing things."

The items are available to purchase on Victoria's website where a fitted mini-dress retails at £490, a one-shoulder top at £350 and a £450 cropped cardigan as well as other items.
Fans were surprised by Victoria last May when she said that being skinny was going out of fashion.
She said: "I think women today want to look healthy, and curvy. They want to have some boobs and a bum. It’s not about being a certain size. It’s about knowing who you are and being happy with who you are."
Victoria's followers were excited to hear that her fashion label would be increasing it's range of sizes when she announced the change on Instagram.
One person said: "Finally qween! You listened to our feedback and used curvaceous models for your campaign."
As a second wrote: "Finally a different size model!"
Another commented: "As a larger lady I love this. Hard to stay classy when your options are SHEIN or a tent for two now I just need your twin zip detail dress in an 18 and all will be well in the world!"
A fourth took to the comments to say: "Lovely to see something other than a size zero model! Bravo!!! Keep it up…! #celebrationofdifference"
Despite the announcement, the designer brand and Victoria's new make-up firm lost £6.6million in 2020 and in 2019, it racked up £15.6m in debts.
It is thought the business is still in the red to the tune of £53.9m – with £29m owed to the Beckhams ’ other business ventures.
A report said: "Total revenues for the Victoria Beckham Holdings group fell 6% to £36.1m (2019 – £38.3m) due to the effects of the global pandemic.
"This group rapidly responded to the effects of the pandemic and controlled its cash and expenditure which led to a significant reduction in its operating losses by 57%, thanks to cost efficiencies across the business and the recalibration of its business model to make it sustainable for the longer term.
"Victoria Beckham Beauty continues to expand its portfolio with a number of successful product launches in this year with best in class in clean luxury beauty and skincare."
