Victoria Beckham's Party Wardrobe Revolves Around These 6 Chic Pieces

Jose Perez/Bauer-Griffin/GC ImagesStyle Notes: In the recent words of Who What Wear UK news writer Natalie Munro, "Ever chic and always in tune with the latest trends, Victoria Beckham emerged this week in a trending draped dress whilst out for lunch in London's Notting Hill. Though Beckham's style is right up to speed (of course, she's a fashion designer), she'll forever be a '90s girl in our hearts, so I was pleasantly surprised to spot her in a quintessential throwback draped dress on her return to London from Paris Fashion Week." And whilst the dress pictured above wasn't the one in question (you can see that here), it is further proof that there is nothing VB loves more than a figure-flattering dress that hangs (and clings) in all of the right places.
Velvet you'll want to pour yourself into.
I'd expect nothing less from Nanushka.
If this doesn't look right up Victoria Beckham's street, I don't know what does.

Marc Piasecki/GC ImagesStyle Notes: It might appear on first glance that VB is a card-carrying member of the "no pants club", but she actually swapped her skinny jeans for leggings a long time ago, and makes them all the dressier by adding oversized tailoring. You might not be entirely convinced by her Balenciaga fishnet "panta-shoes", but you can get the same slimline silhouette by pairing leggings or opaque tights with simple court shoes and a boxy blazer.

@victoriabeckhamStyle Notes: It's not just oversized blazers in Victoria Beckham's closet; you'll find matching trousers in there too. Whether it's classic black tuxedos, white flares, unexpected pastels or slouchy but chic fits in charcoal grey, Beckham knows how to make matchy-matchy co-ords look a million dollars, and this timeless staple never goes out of style, so the right fit will last you a lifetime.
If you'd told me this suit was designer I'd have believed you.

@victoriabeckhamStyle Notes: We've been long-term advocates of wide-leg trousers, and this universally flattering trouser style lends itself well to VB's signature platform heels. Sure, they look great with a two or three-piece suit, but you can also swap out your jeans to wear these smart bottoms with everything from sparkling camis to satin shirts.
These will go with everything, even in summer.

@victoriabeckhamStyle Notes: If you needed any further proof that her Posh Spice days are behind her, Beckham is rarely spotted in minidresses (especially leather styles), but you'll see plenty of maxi dresses hanging in her wardrobe. From floaty, romantic gowns to colour-block pieces from her own Victoria Beckham line, her new style staple is an elongating maxi dress finished with strappy sandals, a clutch bag and a chic top-knot.

Dominique Charriau/WireImageStyle Notes: Ready to take things up a notch? According to Gen Z, millennials and boomers have it the wrong way round. It's all business up top and party on the bottom, as "nice tops" are traded in for basics and statement trousers are the new look du jour. Lucky then that VB caught on to the trend long before the rest of us to provide us with some styling inspo. Prints, colours, textures—anything goes, but just remember to keep accessorising to a minimum to let the trousers do the talking.
Make like VB and add a long-sleeved top.
