Victoria Beckham cracks rare smile as she accepts Glamour award from son Brooklyn
IT TOOK winning a prestigious accolade for Victoria Beckham to ditch her steely composure at the 2015 Glamour Women of The Year Awards last night.
Victoria Beckham was all smiles in NYC last night
The former Spice Girl shocked onlookers by flashing a very rare smile when she was presented with a gong by her teenage son Brooklyn in New York City.
The 41-year-old won the Fashion Force award at the 25th annual ceremony, after stepping out in an elegant red gown.
Wearing her brunette tresses down and draped over one shoulder, Victoria highlighted her slender frame in the form-fitting look, complete with low-cut neckline and statement straps.
Referencing her habit of keeping a straight face, the mother-of-four tweeted a picture of herself on stage alongside the caption: "Yes she smiled! I'm happy."

In a tribute from friend and former Desperate Housewives star Eva Longoria, Victoria was described as a Woman of the Year because she is loyal and funny.
"She's bold enough to curate a style all her own. She's a loyal, giving friend - and funny, funny, funny!" the actress told the US magazine.
In a later tweet Victoria added: "Thank you to all my girls" adding the hashtag "Girl Power", a phrase which became famous during the Spice Girls' heyday.

Her husband David, who was not present, also gushed on Instagram: "Congratulations to the most amazing mother for the woman of the year award… Truly well deserved."
Earlier in the day, Victoria had appeared glum and tired as she appeared on Good Morning America to discuss her Glamour nomination.
Other winners at the bash at Carnegie Hall in Manhattan included reality star Caitlyn Jenner and actress Reese Witherspoon.
