In a post thanking her friend, Victoria wrote, “Thank you so much to my dearest friend @anastasiabeverlyhills for hosting us in your beautiful home last night! You are truly an inspiration and it’s always such a pleasure to be back in LA with you. Kisses #HarperSeven @norvina @victoriabeckhambeauty xx.”
The high-profile event drew attention for an unexpected reason: Harper’s outfit. The 13-year-old dazzled onlookers in a retro-inspired, flowing dress adorned with a vibrant psychedelic print by French brand D’Angela Panelli.

Despite the elegance of her outfit, Harper’s appearance sparked mixed reactions online. Some fans expressed concern over the appropriateness of her attire for her age, while others praised her style and confidence.
One user commented, “I think that dress is a little bit revealing for a 13 year old. She’s turning into a beautiful young lady, but don’t make her old before her time [sic].” Another agreed, writing, “She is a child, not a woman yet [sic]!!! 😀”

The discussion continued with more comments from critics who thought Harper’s look was too mature. One user remarked, “Well, she [has] so much [makeup] on at 13 and dresses like an adult woman to be a child.”

However, Harper also received plenty of admiration for her fashion-forward appearance. One fan wrote, “Harper is such a beautiful young lady 💕.” Another praised her youthful look, “[She] looks amazing compared to other [13-year-olds]… fresh and natural …”
Other fans found nothing wrong with her outfit and admired how she carried herself. One user wrote, “I love it. She looks perfectly [age-appropriate] and so lovely.” Another echoed this sentiment, “Incredible! Harper’s dress, wow 💕✨.” A final fan commented, “Wow Harper, what a dress 😳😊☺️ so Nice and the others also 🤩❤️[sic].”
Harper’s involvement in her mother’s business ventures has often been subtle, but their bond goes beyond the typical mother-daughter relationship.
Victoria, who shares sons Brooklyn, Romeo, and Cruz Beckham with her husband, David Beckham, revealed that Harper has been present at various stages of her brand’s development.
“Harper comes to work with me, and I think that she has been quite a sponge and has soaked up what we talk about,” Victoria shared. “It’s inspiring as well. Harper is obsessed with beauty and [skincare], and it’s a really nice thing that we can do together. We like to go shopping and try formulas and discuss that.”
Like Victoria, Anastasia, a close friend and successful businesswoman, has seen her daughter Claudia grow into a business leader. She emphasized how challenging it can be for children growing up in the shadow of their famous parents.
Reflecting on this, she mentioned a conversation she had with Harper about the unique pressures. “I was asking Harper today, ‘How difficult is it to be Victoria’s daughter?’ Because it’s not easy.”

One critic stated that she was “pretty young” to wear that kind of outfit, while another remarked, “Stylish but hardly appropriate for a 13 year child [sic] .”

Someone else also commented, “She’s far too young for a dress like that. Why make her grown up too soon. Shame she hasn’t been allowed to be like other girls of her age. Victoria uses her as a clothes horse [sic].”

Another commented, “Better looker then [sic] her mum Victoria,” and one noted how “Adorable” Harper was, adding, “As I keep saying she is definitely a daddy’s little girl.”
