In case you’ve managed to somehow completely avoid Instagram for the last couple of weeks, the Beckham family are on holiday.
Victoria, David and their four children have been sunning themselves in France – a trip that came complete with a jaunt on Elton John’s yacht – and while you might expect the star to be unveiling an extensive holiday wardrobe, she actually appears to have spent most of the break in just one dress.
The strappy, oversized halter neck maxi is of course, one of Victoria Beckham’s own designs, and the former Spice Girl says that she is ‘obsessed’ with the piece, having been spotted in both versions during her break.
She even showed fans on Instagram stories how she cinches in the voluminous style, using a long necklace around her waist to transform the shape for a whole new look.
But if you’re having visions of breezing through your own European adventure throughout summers to come, you should know that the outfit comes with a pretty hefty price tag. Despite the fact it’s currently on sale, it will still set you back around £897.50 – down from its original cost of £1,795.

Now, we don’t know about you, but that number far exceeds our actual holiday budget, let alone the price of what we plan to wear. But fear not: if you want to channel VB vibes on a budget, the high street has come up trumps with similarly stylish strappy dresses galore. And while they may not boast the exact crossover structure, they’ll still give you a fabulous floaty finish.
Here are seven of our favourites to shop now – just add sunglasses and layers of pendant jewellery for the very same effortless cool.
