Victoria Beckham has grabbed the top spot of Britain's 100 most successful entrepreneurs of 2014, it has been revealed.

The former Spice Girl member, who reinvented herself as a fashion designer, came in at No. 1 in the list compiled for business magazine Management Today, the Guardian reported.

The rankings were based on turnover growth and job creation over the past five years for Beckham's fashion label.

The 40-year-old fashion designer, who is married to former England captain David Beckham, recently told the publication that first time around she felt famous, but now she felt successful.

Apart from Beckham, the list included 14 other women, up from 11 when the rankings were last published in 2011.
