Victoria Beckham wanted to design dresses women can go to the toilet in.
The former Spice Girls star - who recently launched her second collection of
women's clothes - determined the most important features the outfits needed.
She said: "I put all the clothes on myself and walk around in it, and I know
what feels comfortable. I know how a dress should sit. I've worn so many in the
past and when I see the photographs I think, crikey, my boobs are up round my
neck again because the corsets are too short and not cut high enough.
"Like I knew I would spend a lot on high-quality zips because I have had my
share of badly made zips. I wanted a zip that undoes from both ends because then
you can either put the dress on over your head or step into it - and also, you
know, going to the loo wouldn't be this whole big problem."
Victoria - who has three sons with husband David - also revealed being in the
Spice Girls made it harder to pursue a career in fashion.
She added to Britain's The Times newspaper: "Being in the Spice Girls,
fashion-wise, probably didn't open any doors. If anything, it shut doors and I
have had to bang them down."
