Victoria Beckham Makes a Case for the Pretty Pleated Skirt

Last weekend, Victoria Beckham arrived in Hong Kong to celebrate her beauty collection with Estée Lauder, choosing a bold kiss-print top and skirt for the occasion. Today in Shanghai, she went back to basics with what is fast becoming her new uniform: a menswear-inspired button-down and a ladylike pleated skirt.

Beckham has long championed an easy femininity, designing her collections with this mind-set. Which leads us to the softly pleated skirts that she cleverly offsets with boyish staples. One month after her Fall 2017 show, Beckham tested the waters in a blush pink skirt with her son Brooklyn in Paris. Similarly, she has toyed with tonal dressing, offsetting her fluid skirt with a slouchy turtleneck. But what set today’s look apart was the simple beige strappy sandal, which pushed Beckham into truly elegant territory—a rather posh way to glide into spring.
