"I kept my wedding dress," she told Stylist magazine.
"I couldn't give away the dress I first wore when I went out with David. It was a little high-street suede mini-dress so I've kept that for her." The former Spice Girl had previously spoken about the auction and revealed that she had kept her daughter in mind when sifting through the clothes , but had also wanted to try and raise as much money as possible.

"People have asked aren't I keeping a lot of these pieces for Harper," she admitted. "I'm keeping a few pieces, but for me it was more important to raise money for this charity. As women, we have a responsibility to really help and support other women, to do what we can do to help." When deciding on what pieces she would auction off and which she would keep, Victoria delighted fans with a sneak peek of the dress she wore on her first date with David, sharing a photo on Twitter.
