Victoria Beckham's fashion show disrupted by Peta

Victoria Beckham’s Paris Fashion Week show was interrupted by PETA as she presented her autumn/winter collection.

The 49-year-old Spice Girl Victoria Beckham was showcasing her label’s autumn/winter collection at Paris Fashion Week.

PETA, or the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, staged a protest against the utilization of animal skins in the fashion industry, with demonstrators donning T-shirts bearing the slogan “Animals aren’t fabric” and brandishing signs that declared “Viva vegan leather”.

During the show’s finale, Victoria, who was on crutches due to a foot injury, made an appearance. She sported a black protective boot on her left foot, coordinating with her all-black ensemble. Despite her limited mobility, she gracefully walked past fashion enthusiasts and critics seated in the front row, among them former Brazilian international footballer Ronaldo, who once played alongside Victoria’s husband David.

Pausing briefly, she blew a kiss to someone in the audience and silently mouthed “thank you”.

Peta has highlighted that although Beckham’s fashion brand abstains from using fur or exotic skins, certain designs incorporate leather. Mimi Bekhechi, Peta’s European president, emphasized, “No garment or accessory justifies the violent slaughter and skinning of sensitive and intelligent animals.” Peta urges Victoria Beckham to explore ethical and eco-friendly alternatives such as premium leather derived from apples, grapes, pineapples, mushrooms, and other sources.

Peta activists, known for their disruptive protests, frequently stage demonstrations at major fashion events worldwide, including recent appearances in New York, London, and Milan during the current fashion season. The Paris show featured Victoria Beckham’s autumn/winter 2024 collection. David Beckham shared on Instagram last month that Victoria had injured her foot in a “minor accident at the gym.”

Models strutting their stuff, and suddenly, there’s Peta waving banners and causing a stir. It was definitely a moment that got everyone talking. Of course, things eventually settled down, but not without leaving a mark on an otherwise flawless event. Let’s see how this unfolds in the world of high fashion!
