Spice Girls to auction off the iconic outfits that influenced a generation of wardrobes

From catsuits to Union Jack dresses and platform trainers, the Spice Girls influenced a generation of wardrobes.

And now you can get your hands on the real thing.

Victoria Beckham, Geri Halliwell, Emma Bunton and Mels B and C are auctioning some of their most famous costumes for charity.

To coincide with the launch of new musical Viva Forever! in London’s West End this December Girl Power outfits from the past 16 years will be put up for grabs at a star-studded benefit gala.

Victoria, 38, said: “I’ve got all my costumes still. I can’t wait for Harper to grow a little so she can have some.

"But the rest I’d like to put up for charity, I think it would be a fantastic thing to do.

“Everything we did at the time was great, it really was great.

“We watched a little video Geri put together and I think we were nearly all brought to tears.”

Style shift: Emma in Mayfair

Short 'n' sweet: Geri going to the party

Party time: Mel B with husband Stephen Belafonte

Off home: Posh flew back to LA after the reunion

While Geri’s Union Jack dress, which stole the show at the 1997 Brit awards, is on display at the Hard Rock Cafe in Las Vegas, you could still get your hands on some of Posh’s tight black leather and PVC dresses or the leopard-print all-in-ones worn by Mel B, 37.

Mel C, 38, will donate Sporty’s trademark Adidas tracksuits and crop tops, and Emma, 36, is giving away a babydoll shift dress.

Geri, meanwhile, is donating some basque-style minidresses.

The idea of the sale â€" to raise funds for Save The Children and Children In Need â€" was first mooted by Victoria at the end of the band’s 2008 reunion tour.

And one item she will happily see under the hammer is the girls’ wedge trainers â€" or Buffalos.

Geri, 39, let slip: “It was the Buffalo shoes that Victoria really wants to wear again! She hated them â€" she wouldn’t wear them.”

Grinning, Victoria quipped: “No, I didn’t, no really... I just didn’t want to wear them myself.”
