Trim Nigella, 57, gives slim Posh a run for her money

- Daily Mail Reporter

KNOWN for her curvaceous figure and disdain for dieting, she’s been looking noticeably trimmer in recent months.

But even the normally confident Nigella Lawson might have thought twice when asked to pose next to Victoria Beckham – probably the most famously slender woman in the world.

However, the 57-year-old TV cook showed no nerves when she was photograph­ed with the singer turned fashion designer at a starstudde­d party on Thursday.

Miss Lawson – who says that her weight has fluctuated between a size 16 and a 12 over the years – posed happily next to motherof-four Mrs Beckham, who is 14 years her junior.

The pair were guests at the leaving party for outgoing British Vogue editor Alexandra Shulman held at the fashionabl­e Dock Kitchen in West London.

Miss Lawson wore a black jacket

and trousers paired with ontrend white platform trainers, which showed off her newly slimmed-down figure.

Meanwhile Mrs Beckham, 43, opted for a white T-shirt worn with black and red leather trousers and her staple stilettos.

Renowned for her voluptuous figure, Miss Lawson, has frequently spoken in the past about her great fondness for food and dislike of diets.

But in recent months the mother-of-two has been looking noticeably slimmer. Friends say she has upped her exercise regime lately as she prepares to release cookbook, At My Table, after notably retreating from the limelight in recent years.

Last year the domestic goddess revealed that yoga was helping her to get in ‘better shape’.

‘I have never been on a diet to try to lose weight,’ she said. ‘I feel like I haven’t lost weight, but I’m possibly in better shape. I am doing a rather slow form of yoga now called iyengar.’
