Victoria Beckham leaned into pleated textures on Monday, opting for Saint Laurent’s Babylone mules while out in Paris.

The stilettos were cut in smooth bordeaux leather, gathered through the vamp into a pointed peep toe. A gold Cassandre logo threaded at the center anchored the ruching, while a slim heel kept the profile sharp. The style sits within Anthony Vaccarello’s core lineup, nodding to Saint Laurent’s archival folds and hardware.

Beckham carried the theme into her handbag: the Soft Dorian from her own label, finished in matching burgundy leather with pressed pleats. She paired the leather with a ribbed blush midi dress, long-sleeved and close at the neck. A gold anklet and oversized shades pulled the focus back to her signature accents.

The Babylone mule has become a fixture this year. Hailey Bieber has rotated the style across New York, from vintage minidresses to Rhode panels. Brooks Nader made it her Labor Day pick in Beverly Hills, pairing the mules with straight denim and a brown leather jacket.

Other stars have leaned into different iterations of the silhouette. America Ferrera chose a satin mule with an asymmetric upper to finish a navy suit in London last week, while Selena Gomez slipped into pointed black stilettos in SoHo earlier this month. Both underscored the season’s “barely there” shoe streak, joining Emily Ratajkowski and Julia Fox in favoring clean slip-ons over chunkier platforms.

For Beckham, the look situates her within the broader peep-toe resurgence while aligning with her own design codes. Pleated leather is a throughline in her collections, often treated as a sculptural counterpoint to clean tailoring. In Paris, she let Saint Laurent’s house signature carry the message — and matched it with her own.
