We have a lot to thank Nicola Peltz Beckham for. The ever-lasting supply of Y2K outfits, the dramatic hair transformations, and the rare sneak peeks into her Miami nest with her husband Brooklyn. It's safe to say, the heiress likes to keep us on our toes. The 28-year-old even put to bed rumours of a family feud as she reunited with the Beckhams to celebrate her one-year wedding anniversary with Brooklyn, serving up noughties nostalgia in a tropical dress to die for.

While posing for a family photo with her in-laws David and Victoria Beckham, plus sister-in-law Harper, Nicola dazzled in a halter-neck dress that is ideal for summer. Featuring a slinky silhouette, a mini cut and a sprawling tropical design that conjured up images of Mediterranean summers abroad, the number provided the perfect alternative to Victoria's monochrome look.

Nicola completed her beach babe aesthetic by slipping into a pair of gold platform heels with criss-cross detailing. She wore her chocolate hair down loose and smiled for the camera, showcasing a radian beauty blend that highlighted her modelesque features.

We couldn't help but note how Nicola's attire was reminiscent of Jennifer Lopez's iconic Versace dress that came crashing onto the fashion scene in 2000. JLo donned the striking silk-chiffon number to attend the 42nd Grammy Awards, which boasted a striking bamboo and citrine print. The piece has been credited as one of the most high-profile dresses ever and helped to cement Versace as a household name.

The Beckham's Thursday evening reunion proved to be a success, and not just in the wardrobe department. Despite wavering rumours of a family feud between the two Mrs Beckhams, the duo appeared to be in high spirits.

Their acquaintance marked their second outing as a family, as the Beckhams came together to celebrate Brooklyn and Nicola's first wedding anniversary together last week.

The couple tied the knot on 9 April 2022 at her parents Nelson and Claudia Peltz's oceanside Palm Beach estate. However, questions arose as to why Nicola opted for a custom Valentino gown instead of one made by Victoria's design team.
