What's the secret to Victoria Beckham's runway beauty look?
For AW 2025-26, Victoria Beckham fuses the elegance of ritual with the magic of the moment, exploring the beauty of impulsive gestures.
The runway has always been a space for creative expression in its purest form. It's where fashion and art collide, a place where every silhouette, every movement, every detail tells a story. For AW 2025-26, this notion of creativity was explored through the subtle tension between ritual and impulsiveness, a complex balance that took shape under the expert hands of Victoria Beckham and her team.
This season's collection continues the exploration of the everyday ritual of dressing, but with a twist: inspiration comes from the magic found in accidental embellishment. These instant moments, where we let ourselves be guided by instinct, reveal a fragile and spontaneous beauty, a beauty that is as personal as it is playful. Victoria Beckham thus sought to explore the notion of the unexpected, the idea that "sometimes, the most beautiful things happen by chance." Far from calculated perfection, this season's collection thrives on the irreverence and charm found in the simplicity of spontaneous gestures. This philosophy has been transcribed through pieces imbued with character, while remaining anchored in the timeless elegance that characterises the designer's style.
This is how the makeup, orchestrated by the talented Lucia Pica, also embodied this duality between refinement and rebellion . With a resolutely sophisticated approach, Pica opted for lashes impregnated with the new Future Lash Mascara in Bordeaux , an intense and deep shade that has been a staple throughout the collections. Applied with intention, this shade was pressed into the roots of the lashes to create a clumped effect, evoking that touch of nonchalance specific to impulsiveness, while maintaining a certain rigor.
To unify the look, a veil of bronze pigment was blended onto the eyelids using the Eye Wardrobe Bordeaux palette. This subtle gesture, blended to perfection, added a dimension of depth while maintaining a soft and calm look. It is this alchemy between elegance and instinct that truly marked the beauty look as well as the clothes of this season.
The skin, meanwhile, remained impeccably fresh and pure. Lucia Pica and her team chose to highlight the natural radiance by using the light-reflecting pigments of The Cell Rejuvenating Illuminator in shades Pearlescent and Golden . These products, which play with light in a subtle way, provided that delicate touch that highlights the skin without ever overshadowing it.
The beauty of the faces was then enhanced by fine and precise gestures. The eyebrows were neutralized with a cool beige shade, thanks to the FeatherFix Brow Gel in Blonde , a choice that allowed to keep the attention on the eyes and lips. For the complexion, the Concealer Pen was used only where necessary, in order to maintain this feeling of lightness and naturalness. Finally, to perfect the whole, a glowy touch was added thanks to the Posh Balm in Glacé , delicately pressed on the lips for a subtle and elegant shine.
Overall, this Autumn/Winter 2025-26 collection and its accompanying makeup capture the essence of what is most exhilarating in fashion: a creative freedom where the ordinary and the unexpected meet to give birth to a new, fluid, and bold beauty. A vibrant tribute to the art of the moment, where every detail, every gesture, creates a unique magic.
