Victoria Beckham has been presented with a prestigious arts medal in Paris, France.<\/p>\n
During a ceremony staged on Monday evening, the British fashion designer was bestowed with the Ordre des Arts et des Lettres (Order of Arts and Letters) by Minister of Culture, Rachida Dati.<\/p>\n
Addressing guests, Victoria noted she was “extremely grateful” for the honour.<\/p>\n
“I am deeply patriotic and so proud to be British, but France is one of the few places where fashion is treated with the seriousness it deserves – as a form of art,” she said in a speech, according to Vogue. “I always greatly admired the French aesthetic, and to be recognised here and embraced in this way is a profound privilege – one that reflects years of commitment and dedication.”<\/p>\n
Victoria went on to credit her husband and original investor, David Beckham, for his ongoing support, and highlighted the commitment of her business partners and design team.<\/p>\n
“Showing on the most important stage in the fashion calendar and feeling such acceptance and belonging is something I really don’t take lightly and I will continue to work very hard to honour it,” the 51-year-old continued. “Fashion is never the achievement of just one person – from design to the atelier to the production and communications teams and the many minds and hands working together, it is a collaborative effort, and this distinction isn’t mine alone.”<\/p>\n
For the special occasion, Victoria was joined by David and their three youngest children, Romeo, 23, Cruz, 20, and Harper, 14, with other attendees including former U.S. Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour and supermodel Helena Christensen.<\/p>\n
The news comes shortly after Victoria and David’s eldest son, Brooklyn Beckham, publicly announced he was estranged from his family and did not wish to reconcile.<\/p>\n
Representatives for the couple have not yet commented on the estrangement.<\/p>\n
