Famous fashionista Victoria Beckham has been offered a whopping £25 million to help design a luxury hotel in Dubai.

The idea was proposed by Sheik Mohammed bin Rashid al-Maktoum, the ruler of Dubai, who wrote to the star personally asking for her collaboration on the project.

So super famous Mrs B could be turning her talents to interiors if she accepts the new deal.

It's thought the fashion-based hotel would be created with the additional help of designer extraordinaire Karl Lagerfeld, but could see Victoria overseeing everything from the room layout and design to the wardrobes and soft furnishings.

David and Victoria first hit it off with the Dubai Royal family last summer when they visited on holiday.

And it's said the ruler was so taken with the Posh he wanted no one else in charge.

But Mrs Beckham has yet to agree, and insiders say it may be more due to timing than anything else.

The star has her hands full balancing life as a mum with her international fashion collection.

‘If she accepts, she wants to be very hands-on and involved with all the decision making,' said a source.

‘She's not just going to put her name to anything. It has to be a fantastic project.'

But Mrs B herself has remained tight lipped on the project.

Yesterday her spokeswoman said: ‘Victoria is always keen to look at ways of growing her business but for now her focus is New York fashion week next month.'
