Nicola Peltz Beckham made a fashion-forward statement at a Los Angeles party, but her photos at the event ignited a social media frenzy—proving that not everyone was ready for her bold style.

Nicola Peltz Beckham turned heads in a daring outfit as she joined her husband, Brooklyn Beckham, at a chic Los Angeles bar for the launch of his luxury hot sauce, Cloud23, on October 10.

The event was a family affair, but it was Nicola’s bold fashion choice that stole the spotlight. Photos from the evening showed the actress in a sleek black tailored blazer, sheer tights, and platform heels—opting to forgo traditional pants.

To complete her ensemble, Nicola kept her makeup minimal and elegant, allowing her natural features to shine. Her hair, styled back in a chic manner, added to the overall sophistication of her look.

Brooklyn, the eldest son of David and Victoria Beckham, opted for a polished yet casual look, wearing a black suit over a white t-shirt. The couple’s coordinated appearance stood out even more against the event’s setting.

In one photo, they posed in front of a light blue backdrop adorned with clouds and cherubs, adding a playful, romantic tone to the occasion. In a candid moment, Brooklyn was seen kissing his wife on the cheek, highlighting their close bond.

Nicola’s modern, edgy take on formal wear sparked intense online debate. One user said, “Having no pants is so unsanitary 🤮.” Others expressed curiosity, “Wonder what her mother-in-law thinks of that outfit.”

One critic asked, “Did I miss something or are these ‘celebrities’ forgetting to wear pants nowadays? 🤔” and yet another bluntly chimed in, “Where’s the bottom of her outfit?”

Someone else bluntly remarked, “Rich people have poor taste 🙅🏻‍♀️🙄🤦🏻‍♀️,” while another noted to Nicola, “Showing a bit too much there, dear.”

Despite the backlash, Nicola had plenty of defenders. “These comments are crazy. She looks great and they look happy and in love,” one fan retorted, while others simply admired her beauty.

While Nicola’s fashion dominated online discussions, Brooklyn’s family was focused on celebrating his latest milestone. His parents, David and Victoria, who had already attended the UK launch of Cloud 23 alongside the Beckham clan, once again showed their unwavering support at the Los Angeles event.

David shared his pride in Brooklyn’s hard work on Instagram, “Amazing to celebrate the launch of @cloud23 at @wholefoodsuk …you’ve worked so hard on this Brooklyn ❤️ we are all really proud of you mate… 🌶️”

Brooklyn also expressed his gratitude on social media, thanking his family and wife, Nicola, for their support, “love [sic] you guys so so much xx thank you for supporting @cloud23 ❤️❤️.”

Nicola added her own words of encouragement, celebrating her husband’s success with a heartfelt Instagram post, “brooklyn 🥹 i am so proud of you @cloud23 is so special!🪽 i love you so much! i love watching you live your dreams 🤍 [sic].”

While Nicola faced criticism for her fashion choices at the event, she has also endured scrutiny in her professional life. In a February 2024 interview with Byrdie magazine, she opened up about the harsh comments she receives regarding her career.

Nicola, who has been acting for nearly 15 years, dismissed critics’ opinions, “I get a lot of mean comments on my Instagram that, unfortunately, I do read, and they always comment, ‘She doesn’t work.'”

Despite early resistance from her parents—Nelson and Claudia Peltz—who initially discouraged her from entering the tough industry, Nicola remains dedicated to her craft. “My parents said no to me a million times about acting,” she explained.

Nicola has also transitioned to directing. She revealed that she spent six years working on “Lola,” emphasizing the long and challenging process. The film marks her directorial debut, and she is eager to prove herself behind the camera.

As Brooklyn’s hot sauce venture gains momentum, Nicola Peltz Beckham is carving out her own creative path. Unfazed by public scrutiny over her fashion choices or career moves, she remains determined to leave her mark on Hollywood—both in front of and behind the camera.
