Yep, it seems perennial style icon VB has a fashion hero of her own - Scooby-Doo's brainy pal (and godmother of geek chic), Velma. Sure, Victoria's styled the knit with shades rather than specs, and swapped Velma's '70s mini for an ankle-length skirt… but we know who the true originator is here.

Don't worry, VB - you would have gotten away with it if it weren't for those meddling paparazzi…
