Victoria “Posh Spice” Beckham was busy at the World Cup Final in the U.S., though she was present in spirit: Mel wore dresses designed by her in both of her wedding ceremonies.<\/p>\n \u201cI was actually having dinner with Melanie and asked her what she was up to,\u201d Victoria told Vogue<\/em>. “She very casually told me she was leaving for Australia in two days and getting married!”<\/p>\n Mel and Chris, who is Australian, had a legal ceremony in Australia ahead of Saturday’s event. While Mel has a teenage daughter from a previous relationship, this marks her first marriage.<\/p>\n Victoria explained, “When I asked what she was wearing, [Melanie] mentioned she had actually ordered one of my dresses but that it didn\u2019t quite fit, and she didn\u2019t have time to get it altered before leaving. I happened to have that exact dress in my own wardrobe and offered to lend it to her.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cVictoria\u2019s dress was my something borrowed. It was very special, having her there,” Melanie told Vogue<\/em> of the legal ceremony.<\/p>\n For Saturday’s event, Victoria offered to make Melanie “her dream dress<\/a>.”\u00a0Inspired by the\u00a0original\u00a0design, the gown\u00a0featured more lace, a different color, different back and a train.<\/p>\n \u201cVictoria was so excited about being able to do this for me, and having her and [my daughter] Scarlet there\u2026 every step of the way has been very special,\u201d Melanie says. \u201cPlus, I just love her clothes.\u201d<\/p>\n Copyright \u00a9 2026, ABC Audio.
