David and Victoria Beckham have been married for 24 years and, during that time, they’ve delivered some seriously memorable style moments.

Early into their relationship – which they delved into in Netflix’s new Beckham docuseries – the football star and the Spice Girls singer-turned-designer made it clear that they aren’t afraid to be playful with their fashion and use it to express themselves as a couple. At their 1999 wedding, for example, the pair famously stepped out at the reception – with their son Brooklyn – in coordinating aubergine ensembles.

But their wedding was only the start of over two decades of big fashion moments for the Beckhams. Let’s check out their 12 most memorable couple looks over the years.

1. Matching biker outfits, 1999

During a 2022 appearance on Watch What Happens Live, Victoria revealed a big regret about the all-leather ensembles she and David wore to a Versace event in 1999: that the outfits were Gucci. “It was hot, we were wearing Gucci, it was a Versace dinner, which is inappropriate in itself,” she said. “There was a naivety to it that was so sweet.”

David opted for a Matrix-style, floor-length trench coat with brown suit shoes, while Victoria wore a strapless pantsuit featuring a corset. She accessorised with zebra-printed, heeled boots and a beige choker.

Incorporating several Y2K trends in one outfit, Victoria arrived at the MTV Music Awards in 2003 in a floor-length, ivory gown with a corset-style bodice and a lace that ran down from the centre of her dress, creating a daring neckline. The Dolce & Gabbana dress also featured spaghetti straps and a knee-high slit. She wore the look with strappy, silver heels and drop earrings.

David complemented her outfit in a white suit with satin accents, a deep V-neck shirt, silver jewellery and brown shoes.

Not all of the Beckhams’ best fashion moments were matching looks. At the Laureus World Sports Awards held in May 2005, David wore a classic tuxedo that let Victoria’s ethereal, light-green gown shine. It featured gold-leaf embellishments, a low-cut neckline, a flowing cape and a sheer skirt with multiple thigh-high slits. Her heeled sandals were in the same shade of green.

David and Victoria stepped out in subtly coordinating Giorgio Armani looks for their Met Gala debut in 2008. Victoria wore a vintage, bridal-style piece from the 80s: a floor-length, sheer gown with long sleeves, a thigh-high slit and a suit jacketlike bodice. She added a pop of colour with a red lip, silver, strappy heels and a silver clutch.

Meanwhile, David kept it classic in a timeless black tux with velvet lapels, a crisp white shirt and an oversized bow tie.

At the 2014 Met Gala, Victoria wore a dress from her own collection. The strapless, column dress had a polished look with a two-tier design, with a boxy top and form-fitting skirt that fell to the floor. The skirt was so long, it covered Victoria’s white pumps. She accessorised with a sparkly, silver bracelet and drop earrings, which she highlighted as she wore her long hair to the side and tucked behind her ears.

David matched her in a Ralph Lauren tux comprised of a white blazer with satin lapels, a white shirt and black pants. He accessorised the sleek look with a black bow tie and pocket square.

For Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s royal wedding in 2018, Victoria wore a navy gown featuring a high collar, a cut-out that ran down the bodice and split sleeves, and she rounded off the look with a navy fascinator and bright-red heels. The dress was from her own collection. “I love a bit of navy,” Victoria told Us Weekly of the dress in 2018, adding that it was one of her favourite designs.

David’s three-piece suit – comprised of a charcoal-grey jacket with tails, trousers and a light-grey waistcoat – was designed by Kim Jones for Dior Homme. He completed the look with a matching charcoal tie and black shoes. While his look was similar to the one he wore to Prince William and Kate’s wedding, David was noticeably missing a top hat.

11. Summer style, 2023

The Beckhams perfected summer style during their Paris Fashion Week appearance in June. Victoria attended the Jacquemus show in a pale-pink slip dress from her own resort 2024 collection and paired the ruched, asymmetric gown with blue, open-toe boots, a grey clutch and a pair of shield sunglasses – all from her namesake brand.

Her accessories subtly coordinated with David’s, who wore a light-beige, baggy suit that featured drawstring pants with brown, open-toe sandals and dark, square-rimmed sunglasses from his collection, Eyewear by David Beckham.

Victoria and David coordinated in suits for Netflix’s Beckham premiere in London. She wore a long-sleeved, double-breasted, white suit with oversized lapels and without a shirt underneath.

She accessorised with black, partially see-through heeled pumps and a black clutch, and wore her hair in a sleek side ponytail.

David, meanwhile, wore a navy suit, a matching blue tie, a white shirt and brown loafers.
