Victoria Beckham says she has won over the fashion doubters

Victoria Beckham believes she has responded in style to those who initially viewed her as a fashion "laughing stock".

The Spice Girls star left the music scene in the 2000s to concentrate on making a career in fashion design.

In a new interview with Business of Fashion, the singer said that she felt like she was being written off when she first entered the field.

However, Beckham reckons that she is now proving them wrong:

"For a long time there, I was a bit of a laughing stock. And while everybody was busy laughing, what was I doing? I was laying the foundation to what I have in place now."

The Brit meanwhile is due to open her first fashion store in London's Dover Street this autumn.

She said of the shop: "I think the time is now because I know my customer. It will be the first time that the people will really be able to see the brand through my eyes."
