Victoria Beckham revealed that fellow designers Marc Jacobs and Roland Mouret are big inspirations to her.
In an interview with WWD she said: "When I came out with my first collection, I didn't even tell Marc. Well, I felt a little bit embarrassed. He's Marc Jacobs. What else can I say? I never really told him, and then we went to dinner and he said congratulations on all the reviews and the quality of my work.
"I've learned so much from him. I am such a sponge whenever I'm around him. He is one of the most intelligent, interesting people that I have ever met."
Victoria also talked about her respect for Roland Mouret, but denied that he helped her with her design process.
"I have utmost respect for Roland. I think he is incredibly talented. I love what he does. He's a great businessman. When I very first started working on the dresses, he gave me advice when it came to putting my team together.
He doesn't have anything to do with the design of anything that I do. But he taught me about how to turn my dreams into reality, if you like. He told me I needed a production manager - he helped with that side of things. I do what I do, and he does what he does, and it's incredibly separate."
