Victoria Beckham Resort 2026: A Return to New York City
Victoria Beckham returned to New York City on Tuesday morning, presenting her resort 2026 collection against the picturesque skyline views from Centurion New York on the 55th floor of One Vanderbelt. 'I started showing in New York,' Beckham recalled of her first presentation in 2008 — a showcase of 10 dresses at the nearby Waldorf Astoria hotel. 'Then the collections grew season on season and I was in New York going from small presentations to what turned into really significant, big shows. Then we went back to London to celebrate our 10th anniversary, spent a few years in London, and now, in Paris. It's been 18 years.' More from WWD Alemais Looks to Create Its Own 'White Lotus' Moment With Destination Show in Marrakech The Beckhams, Charlotte Tilbury Rise Up Sunday Times of London 2025 Rich List EXCLUSIVE: Dior Goes Big in Italy for Annual Dioriviera Beach Collection Beckham said the reason she'd been looking back at her 18-year journey as a creative director was due to the Netflix documentary she's been working on, with its release date set for October. 'We'll be doing the premiere here in New York because it really is about my journey in fashion and beauty. Obviously there are elements of my family in there, but it's really about what I do as a creative director across both fashion and beauty,' she explained. She added the trip to New York City was a time to give thanks to, celebrate with and show her latest lineup to the journalists and wholesale accounts who have been on the journey with her. Furthermore, she's proud of what she and her teams have done with the business, noting that fashion, in its own right, is profitable, 'then you've got beauty as well,' she said. Speaking about the collection, Beckham pointed out the codes she built in the beginning that remain important each season, including silhouettes that are elegant yet effortless, feminine and modernly sexy and imbued with thoughtful details. Color remains an important part of that message, with resort's muted tones with pops of vibrancy inspired by the works of the painter Francis Bacon featured in the brand's flagship store earlier this year as part of her third Sotheby's curation. The hues came to life through her high-shine silk jersey dresses with ruched and knotted waist details, or a zip-down décolletage, and slinky bias-cut gowns with slim metal chain straps alongside a mix of strong, signature tailoring. Here, suited looks came both tuxedo-style for holiday (and cheekily paired with satin short shorts and ballerina-inspired knit bodysuits) and utilitarian-bent for the everyday, both with intriguing cummerbund folded, waist-cinching waistbands. 'All of these things, they're strong codes that I respect every season, but with making sure that I still have a strong fashion message and a point of view, because you do want to have that element of surprise each season as well, which is really important. I never want to be that brand that people just know what they're going to see,' she said. For resort, her casual daywear was the unexpected, welcomed element, as seen through chenille jumpers, slick bomber jackets, debut rigid Japanese denim bottoms and a collaborative Mackintosh jacket featuring an interior floral print (inspired by one of the first pieces of Gary Hume's art in Beckham's personal collection). Beckham pointed out many pieces she's worn throughout her recent travels. 'I'm so honest with everything that I produce, that it really is about what I desire, what I want and what I know that my customer wants. So I genuinely do want everything [in the line]. I don't know what I would do if I didn't create my own clothes, because ultimately, I started doing this because I couldn't find what I wanted,' she said of the full circle moment in the city.

What tariffs? The Australian fashion brand taking on the US
New York is the city where dreams are made, according to the Jay-Z and Alicia Keys standard, Empire State of Mind. Australian fashion label Leo Lin is dreaming bigger than most, launching a pop-up store and taking over the windows at the New York flagship of department store Bloomingdale's this week. While other brands experience sleepless nights, with the introduction of import tariffs by President Donald Trump of 10 per cent on Australian goods, and up to 145 per cent on items produced in China, Leo Lin's plans for growth continue one floral print dress at a time. 'Tariffs are an obvious challenge,' says Laura Good, head of brand at Leo Lin. 'The speed at which the tariffs were introduced has only solidified our position that this is our top priority as a business.' Bloomingdale's, which also stocks Australian labels Alemais, Camilla and L'Idee, successfully tested Leo Lin's popularity at its Miami location in October, a month before the US election. Tariffs were not going to pour cold water on the partnership and the brand's move into the New York store, with the US comprising 38 per cent of its wholesale business. 'Our US growth has been on an upward trajectory for over 12 months,' Good says. 'When the tariffs were announced, we were already 80 per cent of the way through a major US expansion project.' Loading 'The business has been focused on the US as a major growth market since we commenced international wholesale almost three years ago.' Leo Lin launched originally as Leo + Lin, in Melbourne in 2017. Its founder, Leo Lin, had moved to Melbourne from China for his education when he was aged 16, staying on to explore fashion design and assemble his studio. Early obvious influences such as Dior and John Galliano have disappeared, along with the plus sign, with the Leo Lin business moving to Sydney and finding its niche with bright, ultra-feminine dresses for special occasions.
