Wanting to be very thin is an ‘old fashioned attitude’… men love curves, says Victoria Beckham

VICTORIA Beckham has insisted that being very thin is an “old-fashioned attitude”.

The former Spice Girl, 48, who is renowned for her pencil-slim frame, said women today wanted to look healthy and curvy.

Victoria, mum to four children, including Harper, ten, said: “There are a lot of really curvy women in Miami, and they really own it, you know?

“They walk along Miami beach with not a lot of clothes on and they look fantastic. They show their bodies off with such confidence. I found both their attitude and their style really liberating.

“And as a mother, I loved the fact that Harper was around women who were really celebrating their curves and enjoying how they look.”

Victoria was speaking to Grazia magazine to launch a new fashion collection called VB Body.

She added: “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. The curvier you are, the better my VB Body dresses look.”

Victoria has previously come under fire for eating a low-calorie diet.

Earlier this year, ex-footballer hubby David, 47, revealed that she has eaten the same thing — grilled fish and steamed vegetables — for the past 25 years.

Victoria gets up every day at 5.30am and goes for a four-mile run before doing some weight training.

She told the magazine, out today, that she trains hard to maintain her body, including her bum, which she said she wanted to be “as good a bottom as I can get”.

And she told how David loves her figure.

She said: “Much as I do dress for myself, I also love the fact that he loves me in these dresses.

"Men love to see a bit of shape.”
