Brooklyn has been modelling since 2014 and has posed for titles such as Interview, Vogue China, and The New York Times Style Magazine. Most notably, Brooklyn modelled for Burberry when he was 16, and was also hired to shoot a fashion campaign for the luxury British fashion brand.
However, this particular appointment sparked backlash, with fashion photographer Chris Floyd telling The Guardian: "David and Victoria Beckham represent sheer willpower and graft. Especially her; she’s climbed that mountain all by herself. They represent hard work, and then their 16-year-old son comes along, and it’s sheer nepotism. He hasn’t done it through hard work, which is counter-intuitive to what his parents represent."
Burberry CEO Christopher Bailey defended the decision to hire Brooklyn, however, stating: "Brooklyn has a really great eye for image, and Instagram works brilliantly for him as a platform to showcase his work. His style and attitude were exactly what we wanted to capture the spirit of this new fragrance campaign."
