She transformed from a pop star to a world renowned fashion designer.
And Victoria Beckham proved her style influence knows no bounds on Wednesday night as she unveiled her new three-part Netflix series with a swanky London premiere, where she was flanked by family, friends and celebrities.
The retrospective nature of the series appeared to have encouraged her nearest and dearest to borrow Victoria’s styles of past and present.
Her iconic ‘Pob’ hairdo – made famous in 2007 – was replicated by her younger sister Louise Adams, who wore her hair in a near-identical version of the style, which features a longer frame at the front and a sheared, volumnious back.
Elsewhere, Victoria’s long-time love of suits and tailoring was adopted by many guests, including her mum Jackie Adams and her bandmate Emma Bunton, while fellow Spice Girl Mel C replicated her PVC looks of days goneby.

Victoria went through a fashion phase in the early 00s while launching her solo career, in which she sported futuristic pleather and PVC looks.
The lady of the hour’s long-time pal Tana Ramsay was also raiding the style archives as she donned a similar ensemble to Victoria with all black and red shoes.

Isabela Grutman mimicked Victoria’s occasional use of a bold colour in a bright orange dress, akin to Victoria’s 2021 style in NYC.
Many guests wore ensembles directly designed by Victoria, including Vogue Australia editor-in-chief Christine Centenera, who wore the same navy slip dress Victoria sported at David’s 50th birthday celebrations last year.
The documentary follows Victoria in the run-up to her Paris Fashion Week show in September 2024 – the biggest catwalk occasion she had ever thrown.
Viewers will see how the weather left her and the team at her label on tenterhooks as they feared they would have to postpone it.

But it also takes viewers on the former singer’s journey from a Spice Girl, to a WAG, right through to the present day as a fashion designer.
It is nothing if not candid, and at times Victoria’s voice shakes as she holds back tears about some of the more difficult times in her life. Amongst them was when her VB label was millions in the red and was on the verge of closure.
After launching the brand in 2008, she was repeatedly bailed out by husband David which made her a laughing stock.
For the first time Victoria tells of her upset at almost losing the London-based firm and the ’embarrassment’ it caused.
‘This business is everything to me, it’s absolutely who I am but it has been a hell of a journey. I almost lost everything and that was a dark, dark time,’ she says.
