Victoria Beckham's Armani advert
Photographs of Victoria Beckham clad only in a bra and knickers and heels have been unveiled in a new advertising campaign for Emporio Armani. The former Spice Girl is following in the footsteps of her footballer husband David, who famously stripped down to his underwear for the same fashion label in 2007. He was featured sprawled out on a bed wearing nothing but a white underwear and an open shirt. The 34-year-old mother of three was reportedly paid £12 million for the campaign. In one shot Mrs Beckham is shown reclining on a carpet in a polkadot bra and knickers with her eyes closed, while in another she poses in black lingerie on an unmade bed. The black and white photographs, shot by celebrated fashion photographers Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott, will appear on billboards around the world, as well as in magazines. Designer Giorgio Armani hailed Mrs Beckham as "a stylish and intriguing woman", adding: "Great underwear is alluring and provocative, and so I wanted to work with someone who would make a real impression."
