While Victoria Beckham’s massive, face-swallowing sunglasses are integral to her on-duty style, she’s upping the ante on her travels.
Throughout Victoria and David Beckham’s sun-soaked European summer travels—spanning Spain, France, and Italy—the fashion designer has scarcely been seen without an enormous woven sun hat, whether she’s lounging on a yacht in a bikini or shopping at Bottega Veneta in a pair of sky-high mules. This week was no exception: while lounging beachside on the Amalfi Coast, Victoria kept her face out of view, pairing a sheer black maxi slip dress with an outsized woven bucket hat.
David, meanwhile, is embracing the sun. While Victoria shielded her face from the UV rays, David welcomed them, clad only in a pair of blue swimming shorts, sunglasses, and a backwards cap. As they say, opposites attract, though I highly doubt that sentiment usually applies to sun protection measures.
The designer isn’t the only high-profile person who knows that sun protection can be folded into fashion—Anne Hathaway’s vacationwear is marked by full-body coverage. The actor shields herself from the sun in long-sleeved tie-dyed swimsuits—plus a trusty sunhat. While Victoria Beckham isn’t all in on the SPF-friendly swimwear just yet, both women know that protecting your skin is always in style.
Anne Hathaway is another proponent of sun protection.
