David and Victoria Beckham’s Matching Outfits From the Early 2000s Deserve a Comeback
David and Victoria Beckham pioneered ’90s couple style in a way we hadn’t really seen before. Posh and Becks were fashion icons in their own rights, but once they started dating in 1997 — and debuted coordinated couple outfits — our love for them went to a whole new level. In the late ’90s and early 2000s, Posh and Becks were shaping their individual styles while creating a shared couple aesthetic. Victoria would often wear some defining fashion pieces of the decade — chain mail, halter tops, chain belts, trucker hats, gradient sunglasses, and her own collection of animal-print details. David’s style would revolve around looking like he was straight out of a ’90s R&B music video, with some sporty tracksuits, varsity shirts, and an occasional silk hair scar...

However, what’s undoubtedly most impressive is of course the outfits. Each episode sees the queens completing a number of challenges that all involve serving some serious “lewks”, and after RuPaul’s unfortunate outburst back in episode five (you know, that H&M comment), the pressure has been on for the contestants to prove their worth on the runway. So far, the majority of t...
