The Tamesis
Victoria Beckham has arrived in the City of Lights for Paris Fashion Week, getting ready for her Fall 2026 show on March 6.
Of course, the designer kept things warm in pieces from her own collection: a tomato-red turtleneck and beige high-waisted flared trousers with front pleats and cargo pockets. Accessories were also very much Victoria Beckham’s signature: a pair of oversized dark sunglasses, a gold watch, pointed brown heels.
But VB also launched a rare limited edition Hermès Kelly bag, made of Fauve Doblis brown suede and cream teddy bear sheepskin with palladium-plated hardware, on the streets of Paris.

The style was designed by Jean Paul Gaultier in 2005 during his tenure at the brand; from 2003 to 2019, JPG reimagined the iconic bag by fusing his own maverick, witty, avant-garde spirit with the brand’s stoic sense of craftsmanship and deep-rooted style codes. Consider: the “So Kelly” bag, first introduced in fall 2008, which subverted the original design into an oversized bowling bag-like silhouette, or how he made the sophisticated Kelly Pochette even more avant-garde on the 2004 runway. Then there’s the “Shadow Birkin,” which features an embossed trompe l’oeil effect of locks and bell weaves—humorous, boundary-pushing, and still totally Hermès.
Beckham owns a large collection of Hermès bags, most notably a wide range of Birkin bags. In January, at the Chevalier des Arts et des Lettres ceremony at the Ministry of Culture in Paris, VB and her husband David Beckham both wore their own Birkin bags: Victoria chose a shiny burgundy crocodile leather model, while David sported a huge Hermès Haut à Courroies Birkin bag.
