Victoria Beckham laughed, joked and hugged some small fans on a flying visit to Dublin, where she was presenting a runway show of her latest Autumn/Winter collections.
A crows gathered at the department store Brown Thomas, where her fashion label is one of the top performers, to catch a rare sight of her in the flesh.
One lucky little fashionista, Niamh Carbery, had a cuddle from the famously-aloof former Spice Girl, as Victoria crouched down to say hello and then picked her up.
The designer wore a military-style structured black coat from her own label, of course - coupled with her trademark vertiginous stilettos.
She told waiting reporters: "The boys couldn't come today but Harper is here with me".
Her one-year-old daughter, who is just beginning to walk, wore a cute a navy dress with red trim and matching red socks and hairband - enough to give trendsetter Suri Cruise a run for her money.
