Did Victoria Beckham Take Styling Cues From Jonathan Anderson’s Dior?

We’re still several months away from Jonathan Anderson’s Dior hitting the racks, but that isn’t stopping anyone from taking styling cues from the designer’s buzzy debut—Victoria Beckham included.

No, Beckham isn’t wearing Anderson’s tricorne hats or floppy flower shoes straight off the spring 2026 runway. In fact, she’s staying true to her recent uniform of Victoria Beckham suits. Today, the designer braved the Paris rain in a dove gray suit—an oversized, structured blazer with high-waisted trousers cinched with a monogrammed belt, along with her signature platforms and oversized sunglasses.

But it was the way Beckham carried her Hermès Kelly that was reminiscent of Anderson’s inaugural womenswear outing for Dior. She held it by its top handle, its hardware undone and top open. On his runway, Anderson introduced a bag with a single handle on one side of the bag, causing it to lean, the contents pointing outward. “Everybody’s saying this is a pickpocket’s dream bag,” one X user joked.

A disorderly bag isn’t new by any means. The spring 2024 season captured snapshots of messy, woman-on-the-go, Miu Miu painting an especially lively portrait. Emily Ratajkowski later modeled lived-in bags in the March 2024 issue of Vogue.

The haphazardness isn’t for everyone (after all, without a dutiful attendant shielding Beckham with an umbrella, the contents of her bag would surely be soaked). But from Jonathan Anderson’s runway to Beckham’s real-life interpretation, perhaps a bag lackadaisically flung open is another marker of luxury that one can sell.
