Forget Black Pumps: Victoria Beckham Has Just the Right Shoe for a Classic Party Dress
This past May, Victoria Beckham captivated photographers at Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s wedding by wearing a midnight blue long-sleeve dress, punctuated by ruby red shoes. Earlier tonight, while departing her Dover Street store in London, Beckham reworked the same silhouette in a shade of red that recalled the dancing emoji lady, and once again subverted her traditionally monochrome style with a quirky approach to accessories.
Instead of a basic black pump, Beckham grounded her streamlined frock with suede lilac heels. The shoes were also a clever alternative to the tonally coordinated to-the-knee boots or neutral sandals Beckham more often wears. In eschewing her usual suspects, Beckham gave her dance floor–ready dress new life and a kicky twist to holiday party season.
