Victoria Beckham, 51, is best known for her chic, feminine designs that have shaped modern women’s wardrobes—but Tuesday marked a new chapter for her fashion empire.
The designer unveiled her first-ever menswear creation on none other than her husband David Beckham, 50, as he was officially knighted by King Charles at Windsor Castle in recognition of his contributions to sport and charity.
A Tailored Suit for a Proud Moment
For this milestone event, Victoria designed a three-piece morning suit for David, crafted from a luxurious British wool and mohair blend in deep charcoal grey.
The suit featured a sharply tailored lapel and elegant tailcoat, demonstrating her attention to detail and precision.
Meanwhile, Victoria herself wore a custom take on her signature Bela dress, symbolizing a possible dual focus for her brand—catering to both men and women.
From Pop Star to Fashion Mogul
Since launching her label 17 years ago, Victoria’s designs have been worn by high-profile names such as the Princess of Wales, Meghan Markle, Lady Gaga, Kendall Jenner, Selena Gomez, Jennifer Lopez, Gal Gadot, and Naomi Campbell.
Yet despite celebrity endorsements, her fashion business faced significant financial struggles, only turning its first profit in 2022 after David Beckham invested millions to stabilize the brand.
Menswear as a Natural Evolution
Industry experts say the move into menswear is a logical next step.
UK stylist Lisa Talbot explained: “Victoria’s brand has always been rooted in refined tailoring, clean silhouettes, and understated luxury—all qualities that translate beautifully into menswear.
David has been her muse for years, and we’ve seen glimpses of her aesthetic through pieces for him and their sons.”
PR expert Chad Teixeira added that a menswear line could attract new audiences and infuse the brand with commercial energy, especially if it balances Victoria’s sophistication with David’s relaxed, British-cool sensibility.
Hints of Menswear in the Past
Victoria has already hinted at designing for men, most notably in June of last year when she created a suit for their youngest son, Cruz, 20.
Cruz shared the look on Instagram, tagging his mother’s account and confirming her design work.
The brand also currently offers a £550 “men’s” denim shirt, signaling potential future expansions into male fashion.
Crafting David’s Suit
The secret project for David’s suit began in June 2025, giving Victoria ample time to craft a perfect piece for the investiture.
Multiple fittings were held in her West London atelier, with a friend noting, “David teases Victoria that she never makes him any clothes, so this was a special opportunity for her to design something memorable.”
Securing the Brand’s Future
Financially, the Beckhams’ empire is substantial—valued at £500 million—but Victoria’s fashion brand has faced ups and downs.
With offices in London and New York and a Mayfair flagship store, the brand has won awards yet also accumulated significant losses over the years.
Strategic expansions into menswear, experts suggest, could strengthen the brand, refresh its image, and boost long-term profitability.
Fashion consultant Alison Lowe MBE said a capsule menswear collection might be the safest approach, allowing the label to test the market while preserving its signature womenswear identity.
A Milestone Moment for Victoria and David
The knighthood was a moment of pride for David, and Victoria’s personal touch in designing his suit made it even more special.
As she continues to grow her brand, the foray into menswear could mark one of the most commercially and culturally significant chapters in Victoria Beckham’s fashion journey, combining timeless design, luxury tailoring, and strategic storytelling to captivate a new audience.
