Posh wears the pants...but only just

Her husband usually wears the shorts. But in the tiniest pair of hot pants, Victoria Beckham obviously wanted to show that she has legs worth a look as well.

In corset, pants and bolero jacket, she certainly got the attention she was hoping for as she arrived at the Glamour Awards in London last night.

I'm too sexy: Posh fits herself into a teeny weeny pair of sparkly hotpants and a rib-crushing corset for her appearance at the Glamour Awards

After a session pouting for the cameras Mrs Beckham apparently managed to sit down - despite her corset and pants which seemed to be causing her a few problems - for a lavish three-course dinner.

Although her husband was unable to attend the ceremony, Mrs Beckham made it a family affair. She was accompanied by her mother Jackie and sister Louise, along with her mother-in-law Sandra and sister-inlaw Joanne.

With only a month to go before the Beckhams' move to the U.S., the former Spice Girl who has turned her hand to fashion as a designer, made quite an impression at the awards, presented by Glamour magazine.

She was named Entrepreneur of the Year and also went home with the evening's most coveted award, Woman of the Year.

She joked: "During my days as a Spice Girl I was blessed to stand on many stages and get many awards. I've got to say that hasn't actually happened since then."

While the mother-of-three is still best known for her Spice Girl days, she has successfully transformed herself into a businesswoman. Her range of sunglasses sold out within minutes of its recent arrival at Harrods.

Her jeans range has been popular with those in the spotlight while her own-brand perfume outsold any other celebrity's over the past 12 months.

Glamour editor Jo Elvin paid tribute to Mrs Beckham.

'She is indicative of the modern woman, successfully juggling the work/home life balance, and is a role model in terms of achieving it all,' she said.

The morning after: Victoria steps out the day after her hotpant appearance at the Glamour awards in a slightly more sedate little black number

This latest red carpet coup comes days after Victoria again took the fashion plaudits with her incredible zebra-print dress and pink bra combo at the MTV Movie Awards where she presented an award.

Beckham's hot pants were reminiscent of Sienna Miller's outfit for the New York premiere of her movie Factory Girl earlier this year.

Upstage me: A relieved Posh realises she has outdone even notorious scene-stealer Nancy Dell'Olio

If Victoria had not upstaged everyone already, Nancy Dell'Olio would surely have taken the evening's headlines as she arrived in a stunning floorlength Ettore Bilotta gown, replete with a three-and-a-half foot train and decorated with pink flowers.

Fresh from claiming that she would stand by Sven even if he did have another affair, the Italian beauty surely showed him what he'd be missing if he ever did stray again.

Other winners on the night included Fearne Cotton, named Presenter of the Year - the former Top of the Pops and Love Island host was recently chosen to interview Princes William and Harry in a move which has been criticised by BBC journalists.

Sportswoman of the Year was the Queen's granddaughter, equestrian Zara Phillips.

There were also awards for Girls Aloud (Band of the Year), Sara Cox (Radio Personality of the Year) and Luella Bartley (Designer of the Year).

Oscar-winner Dame Helen Mirren was honoured with the award for Outstanding Contribution while Tracey Seaward and Christine Langan, who produced The Queen, shared the prize for Film-Makers of the Year.

Hollywood star Angelina Jolie was honoured with the Inspiration Award for her humanitarian work and the way she has combined motherhood - three adopted children and a daughter by partner Brad Pitt - with her career.

Anya Hindmarch won Accessory Designer of the Year for her £5 'I'm Not A Plastic Bag' shopper for Sainsbury's, which sparked a fashion frenzy.
