The Victoria Beckham Pre-Fall 2023 collection featured sculpturally, dangerously, strangely cut dresses and tops in abstract floral prints and dramatic cinematic colors, crafted in oscillating fluid wools or silks.

The collection unveiled  little knitted tops were subverted in tinselling, so wrong they were right, and deviant mutations like a shiny trouser boot or a big bag adorned with the magnified chain of a men’s wrist watch were nothing less than intriguing. Appropriately, she cited The Eyes of Laura Mars and Paris, Texas as influences.

Beckham continued with ‘authentic’ tailoring: architectonic cutting that reveals the steps of the tailor’s process by keeping temporary stitching as adornment and adding details like deconstructed panels.

“It’s about a wardrobe that is not compromised but still very elevated and very desirable. When I decided to show in Paris, I knew there was more pressure on the team and atelier to take the execution and technique to a whole other level whilst still making it feel easy,” said Beckham.
