Victoria Becham has another check to cash — this time from Landrover.
The former Spice Girl and current designer of her own womenswear label has teamed up with the iconic automotive brand as executive design consultant for its Evoque line of cars. She will design the vehicle’s interiors.
“She’s established herself in her own right as a designer and she has some interesting perspectives and she’s owned Range Rovers for years and years so it will be interesting to get an outside point of view, somebody that’s really aware of the luxury goods sector of the market which is really important to us,” said Range Rover Design Director Gerry McGovern.
Victoria’s foray into wheels made us recall some other celebs who have great whip appeal. Check them out after the break!
