Victoria Beckham ditches being thin as 'old fashioned attitude' and admits David loves new look

Victoria Beckham has speculated that women nowadays want to be curvy and has described being thin as an "old fashioned attitude".

The mum-of-four made the comments amid the launch of her new VB Body shapewear collection, which she says looks particularly good on curvier bodies.

She recently revealed that the inspiration behind the new line - which is priced between €105 and €770 per piece - is the desire to have a "round, curvy bottom".

The fashion designer, 48, said: "It's an old-fashioned attitude, wanting to be really thin. I think women today want to look healthy, and curvy. They want to have some boobs - and a bum."

Victoria made the remarks to Grazia magazine, having posed in pieces from her shapewear range for the cover of the magazine - including channelling a Playboy bunny, Mirror UK reports.

She said there are "a lot of really curvy women" in Miami - where she and husband David Beckham, 47, spend time due to his co-ownership of Inter Miami CF.

The Spice Girls star said such individuals "really own" their physiques and "show their bodies off with such confidence," describing their attitude and style as "liberating".

She added that as a mother, she loves that her youngest child Harper Beckham, 10, has been around women who "really celebrate their curves and enjoy how they look."

Victoria suggested to the outlet that her VB Body collection helps women have a curvier figure, with it featuring tight knit designs that create a "really flattering silhouette."

Further discussing the new line - which ranges in sizes from a 6 to 18 - she commented: "The curvier you are, the better my VB Body dresses look."

Announcing the line on social media last month, she had it was "meticulously designed" and "created to flatter the body," with it looking "great on all different shapes and sizes."

She had said the tops, skirts and dresses in the permanent capsule collection are made of a "really tight-knit jersey" that cling to the "parts of our bodies we want to celebrate."

Victoria said it goes back to the roots of her eponymous fashion brand - which she had launched in 2008 - as she had wanted dresses that were "tight, sexy and fitted."
