Victoria Beckham Is British Vogue's October cover star

Victoria Beckham is cover star of the October issue of Vogue Uk.

Lensed by New York fashion photographer Lachlan Bailey, the 42-year-old award-winning fashion designer appears in a purist burgundy trench coat on a sofa with subtle make-up. Inside the issue, Beckham gives surprising insight in a letter written to herself entitled, 'What I wish I'd known,' in which she reveals the moment she fell in love with David, her changing taste in fashion and the advice that she would give to her teenage self.

'Learn more about football, especially the offside rule,' she tells her younger self. 'And yes, love at first sight does exist. It will happen to you in the Manchester United players' lounge - although you will get a little drunk, so exact details are hazy,' she adds, disclosing the details of her first encounter with husband David Beckham.

This is not the first time that Beckham has appeared on the cover of Vogue, among other things she was recently on the Korean and Chinese issue of the fashion bible.
