Victoria Beckham was said to be shocked and upset last night after a £350,000 collection of new dresses was stolen in a knife-point hijack.
The designs, from the former Spice Girl's self-titled fashion line, were stolen from a lorry in a well-planned heist.
The delivery, believed to include between 50 and 75 dresses, destined for sale at Neiman Marcus in New York, had been hijacked soon after it was collected from the offices of 19 Entertainment, in west London, on Thursday.
It is believed the van was followed by the thieves who struck as the van driver made a delivery.
When the driver returned from making the delivery, the van's padlocks were broken and two men burst out of the back of the van carrying two large boxes of dresses.
The driver was left shaken and bruised as he was knocked down when the men barged past.
Mrs Beckham's spokeswoman said it was hoped the spring/summer collection could be remade in time for delivery to Neiman Marcus.
