5 times Victoria Beckham proved black is more than just a colour |
Victoria Beckham knows exactly what to wear when the assignment is to dress chic, classy, and right on point – black ensembles. One of the most photographed women in the world, Beckham has almost never made a fashion mistake. She loves colour and has taught us that black isn’t just a shade — it’s a statement. She has proved that black works for every occasion — romantic dinners, casual outings, high-fashion events, editorials — you name it. From her signature little black dresses during her Spice Girls era to more tailored, monochrome looks as a fashion designer later on, Beckham truly owns the colour black like nobody else. Let’s take a look at some occasions where she wore black like the diva she is.Winter, velvet, and vogueEarlier this week, as Victoria Beckham accompanied her husband David Beckham for his knighthood ceremony at Windsor Castle, she slipped into a midi dress from her eponymous label. Featuring a high neck, signature pleats at the waist, and slit-detail sleeves, the dress was perfect for the high-profile event attended by King Charles. She added a sleek fascinator with a net to complete the outfit — an ensemble so perfect for the regal meet.
Comfy dinner in cami
Celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay hosted a dinner for the Beckham family in London a few days ago. For the family dinner, Victoria Beckham wore a cami gown and twinned with her husband. The gown featured a scalloped lace neckline and gathered pleats highlighting the hip. The dress in midnight black embodied the soul of an evening gown without being over the top. She added a bracelet and watch to complete the look — a remarkable dress for a remarkable night.
Drapes for the doll
In May 2025, when Victoria Beckham appeared at the American Express event, she chose a midi dress from her label. She loves a little wrap moment, and her twist dress with a wrap-front neckline and drape detail was just that. The asymmetrical hemline and shiny bodice added a subtle touch of sensuality to the beautiful dress. Needless to say, the spotlight was on her.
Redefined powersuit
The designer and beauty mogul loves an edgy moment, especially when she is in a position of power. Earlier this year, during Paris Fashion Week, Victoria Beckham gave us a masterclass in monochrome looks. She wore a turtleneck knit top in black with long sleeves, paired with high-waisted, wide-leg trousers with a slight flare. The play of fabrics was spot on. With minimal silver jewellery, white pointed-toe pumps, and bold sunglasses, the former Spice Girl made heads turn.
Gown inordinate
Victoria Beckham does not mind repeating outfits — not even designer gowns. Why should she? The fashion mogul wore a black gown for the Louvre’s Grand Fashion Dinner in Paris in March this year. She had worn the same look during the state dinner at Buckingham Palace honouring the Emir of Qatar. This time, the diva wore her brunette tresses in a sleek ponytail and looked absolutely stunning. The silhouette flatters her body beautifully and adds drama to the occasion.Victoria Beckham’s obsession with black isn’t just a fashion choice — it’s an attitude.
