Melanie Chisholm\u2019s wedding dress came with a Posh pedigree.<\/p>\n

The Spice Girls singer, 52, wed model Chris Dingwall on Saturday<\/a> in a custom gown designed by former bandmate Victoria Beckham.<\/p>\n

The ceremony \u2014 held at friend\u2019s lakeside property in Cumbria, UK \u2014 was the couple\u2019s second. They legally wed earlier in Dingwall\u2019s native Australia, and Chisholm borrowed a dress straight out of Beckham\u2019s closet for the occasion.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was actually having dinner with Melanie and asked her what she was up to,\u201d the designer told British Vogue<\/a>. \u201cShe very casually told me she was leaving for Australia in two days and getting married!\u201d<\/p>\n

Chisholm had ordered the label\u2019s lace-trimmed cami dress but couldn\u2019t have it altered before her flight, so Beckham, 52, offered up hers, which she had worn to EE72 editor Edward Enninful\u2019s wedding in February 2022. (It\u2019s still in stock in several sizes<\/a> \u2014\u00a0and on sale for 40% off.)<\/p>\n

The floor-length ivory slip has a soft V neckline, a low back, skinny straps and lace appliqu\u00e9s that trail across the bust and down one hip \u2014 a \u201990s-inspired silhouette for a woman who helped define the decade.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s just something about her clothes,\u201d Chisholm said of Beckham\u2019s designs. \u201cThey have a real simplicity, especially the slip dresses. They\u2019re really feminine, but in a way that feels comfortable, and very me.\u201d<\/p>\n

For the UK party, Beckham reworked the design with custom-dyed lace hand-stitched over the bodice and skirt, plus a train added at the request of Chisholm\u2019s 17-year-old daughter, Scarlet.<\/p>\n

The figure-skimming cut showcased the star\u2019s sculpted arms and shoulders.<\/p>\n

The festivities were also something of a Spice Girls reunion: Mel B, Emma Bunton and Geri Halliwell-Horner all made the trip to the Lake District. <\/p>\n

Beckham couldn\u2019t attend, but her work walked the aisle. Chisholm finished the look with the label\u2019s champagne satin Harlow heels and Dorian clutch, and carried a loose bunch of wildflowers. The groom wore a Zegna suit.<\/p>\n

Friendship never ends \u2014 and neither does the tracksuit. Chisholm changed into wide-leg champagne trousers and a white sports bra for the reception.<\/p>\n

The couple met on Raya and had their first date in Australia in November 2023, and Dingwall proposed in Mallorca last July. <\/p>\n
