Victoria Beckham to be honoured with a Fashion Icon Award

The people have spoken and it's, in fact, not a Kardashian, Jenner or member of the royal family who rank top in the style stakes.

The fashion icon of 2018 has been named, and it's none other than Victoria Beckham.

Okay, so hardly a surprise, VB has been high up on our inspo list for decades. From her little black dresses in the Spice Girl days to showcasing perfectly put-together looks from her own designs and, sometimes, even breaking a fashion boundary or two.

After years in the style spotlight - going from pouty pop star to respected designer - she's now being honoured with the Fashion Icon Award at E! People's Choice Awards.

She will be the first winner of the inaugural gong, which will be awarded on November 11.

"I feel so honoured to be receiving the first ever fashion icon award at the E! People's Choice Awards," said Beckham in a press release.

"I love what I do, and love that I have been given the opportunity to empower women through my collections. November 11 will be a very special moment for me."

The award couldn't come at a more fitting time, as VB's eponymous brand celebrated its 10th anniversary this year, holding a special spring/summer 2019 fashion show at London Fashion Week for the first time.

Beckham concluded: "This year I am celebrating 10 years of my brand, and this is a wonderful way to mark that decade."

As for the outfit she'll choose to collect the gong? We're guessing it will be one of her own creations.
