Victoria Beckham made herself ill worrying about her new fashion range.

The Spice Girl-turned-designer felt extremely vulnerable when she was about to launch her line of upmarket outfits for her label dVb she became sick.

She said: "I felt beyond vulnerable. I'd never known nerves like it in my life. The night before, I got nodules in my throat.

I was always pushed into the theatre and dance - it's just taken me a long time to figure out what I wanted to do.

"I'd never felt such anxiety. I was very aware that people were expecting very short clothes, probably quite revealing, and I really went against that and showed the other side of me."

Victoria, 35 - who works out seven days a week to maintain her trim physique - said she always wanted to work in fashion but ended up on a long detour via the Spice Girls.

She told Britain's Harpers Bazaar magazine: "I was always pushed into the theatre and dance - it's just taken me a long time to figure out what I wanted to do."

Victoria admits that her brief solo singing career was a disaster.

Victoria's designs were well-received earlier this year, surprising critics who thought of her as a clothes horse rather than a talent.

Designer Roberto Cavalli said: "It's difficult to create fashion, you can't just learn it, you have to have fashion in your DNA, and she has it."
