Victoria Beckham insists 'it's NOT a vanity project!' as she launches passionate defence of new Netflix series

In the eponymous series, Ms Beckham will also take a look back at her life in the spotlight and her transition from pop star to one of the world's biggest fashion designers.

The series delves into her three-decade relationship with Sir David Beckham, the challenges their marriage faced, the financial troubles her brand tackled, and how she overcame the snootiness that came her way when she started out in the fashion industry.

Delving into what it was like working with a TV team ahead of the high pressures of PFW, she told Netflix: "The crew were so respectful, they knew I had a job to do. This is not a vanity project; this is me at work and so I tried to block them out.

"They were literally following me in real time, doing what I do in the lead-up to the show.

"We shot a lot of master interviews after the show. Some of those master interviews, people may not realise I was sitting in the chair for four or five hours sometimes, bright lights, no air conditioning for sound, and it’s hot, we’re in LA, and you start to almost feel a little bit delirious, and I was just that!

"Somewhat delirious because we’d literally just come off the back of the show. I really showed every side of myself. I’m always positive, but you get that sense of how it takes it out of you emotionally as well."

Paying tribute to the crew that worked with her on the project, Ms Beckham described them as "like an extension of our team in a way."

"They got emotional at the show," Ms Beckham explained. "A couple of the guys cried at the end of the show, which was a real shock, but I think this is where Nadia (Hallgren) and the production team really selected every single member of the crew very carefully.

"No one was annoying; everyone commanded so much respect for themselves. Don’t get me wrong, it can be annoying to be asked to put a mic on when you’ve got a lot of things going on, but Adam, who looked after sound, is so good at what he does, you just put the mic on and get on with it.

"They were there to get a job done, as I was there to get a job done."

Emphasising the importance of the Paris Fashion Week gig, she added: "This is a business, and there was so much riding on that show, and all these elements are so important and really can affect the business at the end of the day.

"You create a show because you are selling that collection, so if something goes wrong with the show, that ultimately affects your selling campaign, and I’m responsible for a lot of people.

"I have a lot of people working for me, talented, hard-working people, and of course, there’s that added pressure, we all feel it."

In the first of the three instalments, which are available to stream from October 9, Ms Beckham delves into her family life as well as her own upbringing and journey from popstar to designer.

The second instalment, titled Kill the Wag, picks up in 2008 as Ms Beckham takes the plunge to start her own label.

The second episode details how she wasn't initially welcomed to that world due to her reputation as one of the world's best-known pop stars.

Throughout both episodes, Ms Beckham shows how she's preparing for the upcoming show at Paris Fashion Week.

And in the final instalment, titled Show Day, it's show time as the cameras follow Ms Beckham and her team behind the scenes at the catwalk, although, according to the episode's synopsis, "there's another storm brewing that could ruin everything".
