Mel B enlists Posh to design sexy frocks for Dancing with the Stars

Having a style icon pal comes in handy sometimes. And as if she didn't have her fingers in enough pies, Victoria Beckham is to design her fellow Spice Girl Mel B's costumes for Dancing With The Stars.

The American version of the BBC's Strictly Come Dancing kicked off this week and Mel was a massive hit dancing the cha-cha.

Posh is a natural choice to help design the huge range of outfits Scary Spice will need if she manages to do well in the competition.

Victoria, 33, who is in Japan to promote her perfume range, already boasts her own clothing line, VB, and created jeans for Rock And Republic.

She has also designed a handbag collection for fashion label Samantha Tharasa, but Mel won't be needing one of those as she dances her way into the hearts of the American public with her partner, Ukrainian-born ballroom champion Maksim


Melanie BrownDazzling: Mel won praise for her appearance in the first show earlier this week. She appeared in her trademark leopard-print.

Mel, 32, said: " Victoria is gonna come to one of the shows.

"She is excited, she said, 'I have to design your costumes'. We're sorting that out at the moment as I'm very keen for Vic to put her stamp on my costumes. Everybody knows she has amazing style, just look at all the different dresses and looks she pulls off and the trends she starts.

"I want her to help design a couple of my looks for me, so we're sitting down to throw about some ideas shortly."

Scary, who married film producer Stephen Belafonte in June, is in the middle of a child support battle with actor Eddie Murphy after he was proved to be the father of their five-monthold daughter Angel Iris.

Mel got off to an impressive start on Dancing With The Stars on Monday night.

Beforehand, dressed in her trademark leopardskin print, she confessed she was terrified - but it didn't show as she danced her way into the judges' affections.

She might be regarding that cutaway frock as her lucky dress - she was wearing it backstage on the set yesterday.

Meanwhile it was revealed that Vic and her husband David - who flew to Britain today after his father Ted's heart attack - hope to one day join the Pussycat Dolls on stage for a raunchy dance routine to help boost their profile in LA.

With Vic in the Pussycat Dolls and Mel on Dancing With The Stars, it looks as if it will be difficult to find time to rehearse for the Spice Girls reunion tour, which kicks off in December. Busy girls.
