Victoria Beckham Shines in Paris with Soft Power Dressing
Victoria Beckham is a brand that was born in London but grew up in Paris. And now, the designer has found its home in the city of lights.
It's a fitting location for a brand whose aesthetic has always felt slightly out of place—but not because it wasn't good enough. In fact, Victoria Beckham's designs have always been on the cutting edge of fashion and style. Never really warming to showing in London or Milan…
But Paris? Paris is different. It's a city that embraces creativity and originality, so much so that even when designers aren't showing there, it feels like they're still part of the scene thanks to the influence of its fashion institutions and shops. And Victoria Beckham's designs are perfect for this environment! They're colorful and bold, with lots of interesting construction details that make them feel unique and special.
The silhouettes that Victoria Beckham is known for are both masculine and feminine, constructed and sensual. The result is a collection that's reminiscent of lingerie, but with a unique twist: these pieces are careful not to overwhelm the body.
As the world's fashion industry prepares for its first real look at the spring/summer 2023 season, one designer is poised to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with the likes of Givenchy and Saint Laurent – a lot was riding on this debut, and she did not disappoint.
Rather than a traditional runway, the collection was staged within the hallowed halls of the Val-de-Grâce Catholic Church, affording each and every one of the attendees an up-close look at the collection as it wafted by.
