Victoria Beckham on the upcoming Netflix documentary she says David Beckham talked her into, her Patek Philippe collection – and why security guards are the most important people in her stores
Victoria Beckham is surprisingly busy in the 2020s. After many years in the red, her eponymous fashion company Victoria Beckham Holdings Ltd, is back on the road to profitability – no small thing for an independent luxury fashion brand.
Beckham also introduced a successful fragrance line two years ago, and became the accidental star of a Netflix documentary series about her husband David Beckham. Her charming, funny cameos showed a playful and relatable side to the megawatt couple, they of the matching

This year is looking no less buzzy for Victoria. For the first time ever, she showed her resort collection in person, rather than digitally, at a glamorous trunk show at Centurion New York. In autumn, Beckham will be the star of her own Netflix docuseries, which will follow her day to day as the creative director of her fashion and beauty brands.

In an exclusive interview, we sat down to discuss her future plans, the most important person in her stores and what she collects. Our conversation has been condensed and edited for clarity.

So what made you decide to show this latest collection in New York?
I was having brunch with Thom Browne and Anna Wintour a few months ago, as you do, and she said to me, 'You should come back to New York and show one of your collections.' It's something that I've been thinking about for a while, because I showed my first ever collection here in New York in 2008. New York has been such a huge part of my story so far. I was approached by Amex to come over here, and it just worked perfectly to do it.
Were you nervous when you did that first presentation in 2008?

How Olympian Jeff Galloway is still running marathons at 80 as he trains for his 237th
Jeff Galloway tends to be pretty low-key about birthdays, but on July 12 this year, things were decidedly different: the inspirational American Olympian runner turned 80. 'I guess this year, because it had a zero on the end, I got a lot of nice messages – a few thousand actually,' he laughs from his home in Florida, where he lives with his wife of 50 years, Barb, who shares his passion for running. To say Galloway has had a positive impact on the take-up of competitive running would be an understatement. He pioneered the Run-Walk-Run method in 1974 – known informally as 'Jeffing' – a training style that involves strategic, small walk breaks to allow runners to manage fatigue and avoid injury. The method has made finishing a distance event accessible to almost everyone. More than a million runners and walkers have read Galloway's books, attended his retreats and running schools, or had online coaching.

One of his proudest achievements was getting his then heavily overweight father, Elliott, into running using this method.

Is Alexandra Saint Mleux sport's most fashionable WAG? F1 driver Charles Leclerc's girlfriend is known for her race day looks by Sau Lee and Jacquemus – and has partnered with Rhode and Meshki
Alexandra Saint Mleux may not be getting behind the wheel on race weekends, but she's certainly one of the most recognisable faces in the Formula One paddock. The 23-year-old girlfriend of Ferrari driver Charles Leclerc has claimed her title as the sport's 'It girl' with her impeccable style and elegant demeanour. Alexandra Saint Mleux, Formula One star Charles Leclerc's girlfriend, is known for her impeccable style. Photo: @alexandrasaintmleux/Instagram While she maintains a career in arts – she studied the subject and currently runs an art-focused Instagram page – Saint Mleux's eye for fashion is what's getting her plenty of attention. In just over a year, Saint Mleux's previously private Instagram account skyrocketed from under 1,000 followers to nearly 2.5 million, thanks largely to her incredibly chic appearances at numerous Formula One races and events. That fashionable profile has catapulted Saint Mleux into partnerships with a range of well-known brands – she's worked with Hailey Bieber's Rhode and in May, debuted her resortwear collection with Australian label Meshki during the Monaco Grand Prix weekend. Advertisement From China to Italy and the UK, here are five recent looks that have cemented Saint Mleux's status as F1's style icon. Cheongsam-inspired Sau Lee dress in Shanghai, China In March, Alexandra Saint Mleux stunned fans at the Shanghai Grand Prix when she showed up at the paddock wearing this dress by Hong Kong label Sau Lee. Earlier this year, Saint Mleux stole the spotlight at the Shanghai Grand Prix with looks that paid homage to Chinese heritage. On March 21, she stepped into the paddock wearing a black minidress by Hong Kong-based label Sau Lee that featured a Mandarin collar and red knotted accents in a nod to the traditional cheongsam. She added a modern twist with red ballet flats and dark sunglasses, perfectly matching the outfit's colour palette. For the finishing touch, Saint Mleux blended fashion, motorsport and romance by carrying a custom Ferrari Style Maranello clutch inspired by Leclerc's personal Daytona SP3. She ended the weekend with a soft pink co-ord that featured another cheongsam-style top, and Sau Lee's Vanessa midi dress in black, which she paired with a Saint Laurent Cinq-a-Sept mini bag and patent leather stiletto boots.

Firm in Coldplay drama hires Chris Martin's ex-wife Gwyneth Paltrow to ‘answer questions'
Astronomer – the company whose CEO resigned after being caught on a KissCam at a Coldplay rock concert embracing a woman who was not his wife – is trying to move on from the drama with someone who knows the band pretty well. Actress Gwyneth Paltrow, who was married to Coldplay's frontman Chris Martin for 13 years, announced on Friday on social media that she has been hired by Astronomer as a spokeswoman. Astronomer, a tech company based in New York, found itself in an uncomfortable spotlight when two of its executives were caught on camera in an intimate embrace at a Coldplay concert – a moment that was then flashed on a giant screen in the stadium. CEO Andy Byron and human resource executive Kristin Cabot were caught by surprise when Martin asked the cameras to scan the crowd during a concert earlier this month. 'Either they're having an affair or they're just very shy,' Martin joked when the couple appeared on screen and quickly tried to hide their faces.
