Victoria Beckham’s 50th birthday celebration was a glamorous affair, but it was her daughter Harper’s outfit that stole the spotlight and stirred controversy. Harper, who is just 12 years old, attended the event wearing a slip dress, sparking a wave of criticism on social media about the appropriateness of her attire for her age.

The birthday bash, which Victoria Beckham celebrated with her husband David Beckham and their children—Brooklyn, Romeo, Cruz, and Harper—was a lavish event. The family shared photos on Instagram, but it was Harper’s slip dress that drew the most attention.

While some fans praised Harper’s dress as charming and stylish, others argued that it was too mature for a girl her age. The debate over her outfit sparked discussions about age-appropriate fashion and generated a mix of opinions. One critic expressed disappointment, saying, “It’s a shame Harper wasn’t dressed in something more age-appropriate, including shoes. She’s growing fast and will soon be taller than her mother.” Another commenter echoed these concerns, stating, “She’s only 12 years old—maybe she should wear something more suitable for her age.” A third person added, “Seriously bad dress choices. Harper’s outfit is odd for a 12-year-old; she’s having to bunch it up to keep it from being too revealing in the photos.”

This isn’t the first time Harper Beckham’s fashion choices have sparked debate. Last year, her 12th birthday was celebrated with extravagant gifts and a modest gathering at the Prada Caffè. Harper showcased her unique style in a long lilac slip dress and carried a glittering $2,700 bag, which also led to discussions about her wardrobe choices.

Victoria’s decision to post images of Harper at the Prada celebration fueled further comments, with many people sharing their thoughts on the suitability of Harper’s slip dress and raising concerns about whether it was appropriate for her age.
