The makers of the movie ­version of "Fifty Shades of Grey", an erotic novel by British author E.L. James, are reportedly keen to rope in singer-turned-fashion designer Victoria Beckham to design the clothes and make an appearance in it.

The bosses at Universal Pictures want her to design the stars' clothes as they think that the 39-year-old fashion icon will be an ideal choice to dress the leading characters. They also want her to put in a cameo appearance, reports dailystar.co.uk.

"'Fifty Shades...' is going to be more than a movie. We are hoping for spin-offs in fashion and music. Victoria is front-runner," a source said.

The Universal bosses have drawn up a list of possible designers for their movie, including names like Dolce & Gabbana, Diane von Fürstenberg, Calvin Klein and Marc Jacobs.
