Netflix DebutsVictoria Beckham,’ a Three-Part Documentary on Her Fashion Gamble and Public Persona

The three-part portrait highlights a near-bankruptcy at her fashion label within a tightly managed narrative.

Overview

  • The series launched on Netflix on October 9 with three episodes directed by Nadia Hallgren and produced by the team behind 2023’s “Beckham.”
  • Its throughline is the September 2024 Paris presentation at the Bagatelle gardens, where heavy rain strained a high-risk show for her brand.
  • Victoria and David Beckham discuss a financial crisis at the label, describing heavy investments backed by him as sales failed to keep pace.
  • Early reviews characterize the film as a polished, tightly calibrated exercise in image-making that emphasizes her dry humor and emotional reserve.
  • Victoria recounts longstanding pressures, including disordered eating dating to adolescence and anxiety shaped by hostile media and paparazzi.
