How Victoria Beckham’s daughters-in-law have looked to the fashion designer for style inspiration
Victoria Beckham launched her eponymous fashion label in 2008. She’s a hands-on mother who enjoys a close-knit relationship with all four of her children. So it’s hardly surprising Victoria Beckham has influenced the fashion choices of her sons’ past and present girlfriends.
Earlier this week, Jackie Apostel, 28, who is dating Cruz Beckham, 19, channelled the former Spice Girl at Paris Fashion Week.
Appearing to take fashion notes from her boyfriend’s mother, the singer donned a slinky white slip dress almost identical to one of Victoria’s designs and styled her brown hair in a chic up-do too.
And it’s nothing new, with Brooklyn’s ex-girlfriend, Chloe Grace Moretz having taken style tips from Victoria back in 2018, when she incorporated sharp tailoring typical of Posh Spice throughout the duration of her on-and-off relationship with Brooklyn.
Today, Brooklyn’s wife Nicola Peltz Beckham has dutifully continued the tradition, trading her previous LA pop princess style for Victoria’s laid-back, monochrome aesthetic with masculine touches.
Speaking to The Times last month, Victoria, who founded her eponymous label in 2008, described her style as ‘pared-back, timeless, a masculine touch’.
It’s an aesthetic that is apparent in all her collections, with her recent Paris Fashion Week show revealing a string of boxy silhouettes, daring yet simultaneously sophisticated cuts and muted colours.
And her sons’ glamorous girlfriends often serve as the brand’s biggest advertisement.
When actress Chloe Grace Moretz, 27, became romantically involved with Brooklyn in 2014, she quickly started to share Victoria’s love of sharp tailoring, with side-by-side comparisons revealing strikingly similar looks.
For an event in Utah in January 2018, Chloe plumped for not one, but three different Victoria Beckham pieces, donning black Victoria Beckham trousers with a matching tuxedo coat.
The Kickass star also sported a pair of silver glittery heels from the designer, which Victoria herself has previously worn in public.
She finished the look with a high-collared blouse with ruffle detailing, which looked similar to one worn by Posh at the Harper’s Bazaar Women of the Year awards just a few months before.
