It was the week before Christmas and, in a surprising turn of events, Victoria Beckhamwas seen encouraging her 32.9 million followers to buy Victoria Beckham. The designer had uploaded a video to Instagram stories as she posed in a black dress in front of the mirror and packed her suitcase for the holidays. “I’m trying to decide what to wear for New Year’s Eve,” she said. “I think this might be the one.”
But something – or rather, who, her daughter-in-law Nicola Peltz Beckham, who wore a fire-red corset to her in-laws’ Christmas in Miami – must have convinced her otherwise: Victoria spent New Year’s Eve in a black satin corset. Her eyes slanted with deep blue pigment and her arms wrapped around David in a lustrous shirt evoking his days as Britain’s most prominent “metrosexual,” she looked like she had travelled back to the Posh Spice ’90s. “Dream big,” she captioned the obligatory Instagram post. “Then dream even bigger in 2025.”

Victoria, who spent the holidays singing a duet of “Islands in the Stream,” enjoying airport literature and eerie visits from Santa Claus impersonators, had plenty to celebrate come 2024. It was the year she turned 50 , secured a seat at Buckingham Palace, made peace with the flat shoe movement and the year her fashion house turned a profit for the first time — the result, perhaps, of cementing her role as her best living advertisement. “I’ve proven that if you really work hard and believe in yourself, the sky’s the limit,” she told British Vogue in April. “I always say, ‘Dream big, and then dream even bigger. ’”
