Brooklyn Beckham ventures into modeling! Will his on-camera success match that of his parents, David and Victoria Beckham?
The teen appears in the magazine as part of a 20-page spread about teenage fashion and graces the cover in a crisp white oxford shirt and maroon tie topped with a navy bomber jacket. His tousled locks and pouty expression are reminiscent of his rugged soccer star dad David and former pop star-turned-fashion designer mom Victoria.

“We could not have wished for a stronger subject than Brooklyn to bring this story to life,” Ben Reardon, Editor-in-Chief of Man About Town told Us Weekly. “He was a diligent, relaxed cover star for his first ever fashion shoot.”
In another shot, Brooklyn sports a striped tank top and leather headphones, looking cool and comfortable bearing his athletic arms. He also wears a black crewneck sweater in another photo, surrounded by typical teen bedroom staples such as trophies, speakers and posters on the wall.
The photos were shot by photographer Alasdair McLellan, a family friend who has also shot high-profile projects of Victoria and David in the past.

“This story was a genuine pleasure for all involved,” Reardon also said. “Brooklyn was a true professional and had a keen eye in the styling process, collaborating on selections from designers including Ralph Lauren, Saint Laurent and Supreme. It is clear that he is becoming a credit to the family name, not only possibly the most famous in the world but one with a wealth of heavyweight fashion influence behind it.”
While his modeling career seems to be off to great start, Brooklyn is following in his father’s footsteps and focusing on his soccer skills. He has been training with Manchester United, David’s former club.
Younger brother, Romeo, 11, also made his modeling debut in Burberry’s Spring 2013 ad campaign last year. He appears alongside sophisticated top models.
In addition to Brooklyn and Romeo, Victoria and David are also parents to Cruz, 9, and daughter Harper, 2.
Man About Town hits newsstands on April 4.
