Soccer star David Beckham is reportedly planning to design for his wife’s clothing line.

Fashion designer Victoria Beckham is said to have convinced her soccer star spouse to create a collection of men’s suits and evening wear and he is now working on an Fall/Winter 2011 series of garment after giving in to months of requests from the singer-turned-fashion designer.

“Victoria has been trying to persuade him to do it for a while and he’s finally succumbed. She’s reassured him that he has an eye for fashion,” said a source.

Victoria, 36, is delighted with her 35-year-old husband’s efforts so far. “David is hoping to produce a range of men’s couture clothing of fitted suits, smart day wear and an evening range - and Victoria thinks it will go down a storm,” the source added.

Though this is David’s first time working with Victoria, the former Spice Girls star has previously spoken of the enthusiasm Romeo, her seven-year-old son, has for her career: “The other boys are all about going to the beach; he’s not interested. He’s like, ‘I want to go to work with mummy,’ and he sits there going through the collection, feeling the fabrics, giving his opinion. He loves it.”
