Can you believe that it's been 25 years since two became one (apologies, we couldn't resist) when the world's favourite power couples sat on their golden thrones at the wedding of the year (nay, decade)? Since then, Victoria Beckham has segued from being a girl-band legend to being a highly respected fashion designer, founding her own label that dresses the likes of Meghan Markle, Eva Longoria and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, while David Beckham, retired from football since 2013, has an OBE. They're each a trend-setter in their own right (Victoria's LBD, Becks' hairband), but together, the couple is a pretty unstoppable fashion force. Keep scrolling to see the best looks from the ultimate power pairing: Posh and Becks.
