Victoria Beckham’s Green Dress Is Rapidly Approaching Cult Status

The phrase “cult item” gets thrown around a lot, however, when the same piece has been worn by It-girls, supermodels and royalty, it certainly seems worthy of the accolade. It was back in September that Bella Hadid walked in the Victoria Beckham spring 2023 show wearing a lime-green midi, and the dress is fast becoming a familiar sight in celebrity circles this summer, popping up everywhere from the Coronation to Wimbledon.

Victoria Beckham is always the best ambassador for her own brand, and so naturally was the first to wear the standout green midi-dress off the runway, pairing it with black leather boots for a date with husband David in New York in October. Just three months later, Kendall Jenner wore the midi for a party at Nobu in Dubai, styling it exactly as her friend Bella wore it on the runway, with black leather opera gloves, her hair slicked back and pointed black leather boots by The Row.

By May the dress was back in front of the flashbulbs once again, this time on Queen Letizia of Spain, who attended celebrations to mark the Coronation of King Charles III in a series of boldly colorful looks. She wore the Victoria Beckham dress for a reception at Buckingham Palace on the eve of the ceremony itself. Wearing a London-based designer was, of course, a diplomatic choice from Letizia, who made the look her own by adding a diamond brooch in a delicate bow shape onto the left shoulder, as well as the shoe of choice for female royalty: a classic suede pump.

The dress’s latest high-profile outing came at Wimbledon this week, where Romeo Beckham’s model girlfriend Mia Regan showed her support for his mum’s brand by wearing the hero piece – a perfect choice for a day of tennis and Pimm’s at SW19. (Ever the dutiful VB ambassador, Mia added one of the Chain Pouch handbags, too.)

The dress was unquestionably the hero style of the spring 2023 season for VB. The show opened with a lavender version, supermodel Bella walked in the increasingly popular green iteration, and Beckham took her final bow at the end of the show wearing the same dress, but in black.
