Victoria Beckham was officially made an OBE at Buckingham Palace in London, where Prince William honored her for her work in fashion design during an investiture ceremony. While that's quite an accomplishment — her husband David, who received his OBE in 2003 for soccer, stood right by her side — Victoria opted for a simple outfit. A slightly-tweaked dress from her Pre-Fall 2017 collection, the long-sleeved midi was appropriate and figure-flattering. Perhaps this is just the look that best represents Victoria — she has a long history of wearing LBDs, after all.

"It was an absolute pleasure to be at Buckingham Palace today. I'm proud to be British, honored and humbled to receive my OBE from the Duke of Cambridge. If you dream big and work hard you can accomplish great things. I'm so happy to share this very special occasion with my parents and husband. Without their love and support, none of this would be possible," Victoria said during the event.
