Whilst Victoria Beckham is the kind of celebrity that always has a few tricks up her sleeve style-wise, sometimes the star likes to revert back to a fail-safe combination just like the rest of us. In the chaos of Paris Fashion Week—made even more frenzied with the debut of her spring/summer 2025 collection in Paris on Friday—Beckham leaned towards a few of her most reliable wardrobe items to help her find comfort in the storm.
Stepping out in a black suit set composed of floor-length trousers and a belted blazer in Paris this weekend, Beckham crafted an elegant silhouette with a fashion-person twist. Rather than opting for a neatly cropped trouser or an ankle-skimming pair, Beckham’s extra-long trousers trailed on the floor, elongating her 5’4″ frame and instilling an easy nonchalance that felt particularly at home in the Parisian setting.
Whilst most of us might regard floor-sweeping trousers as special occasion attire, for Beckham—whose entire life is made up of special occasions—extra long trousers paired with sky-high stilettos are more like her equivalent of baggy jeans and Birkenstocks, and make an appearance in her wardrobe rotation at least a few times a month.
Sticking to a tried and true silhouette, I spotted Beckham style the chic two-piece once more across weekend. This time reaching for an optic white set, the designer chose to style a single breasted blazer, sans shirt, and wore a pair of long-line white trousers that encased her heels underneath.
Filling out her own name-sake brand with floor-grazing trousers, Beckham’s penchant for puddle pants is hardly a secret. While some of us might shy away from the trouser trend that practically guarantees a trip to the dry cleaners, Beckham’s latest looks goes to show that the pay-off for a little extra cleaning time is well worth such a chic silhouette.
Excited, but not surprised, to see Beckham back in a long-line trouser, below I’ve curated an edit of the best extra long trousers that you can shop this season. Read on to discover my picks.
