If, like us, the sleep deprivation is well and truly kicking in after a riveting night of electoral tension, then you’ll be well-aware of Labour’s landslide victory.
Sir Keir Starmer, leader of the Labour Party and the UK’s new prime minister, officially drew the curtains on 14 years of Conservative Party rule, marking a new (hopefully improved) chapter for British politics.
While public attention hurriedly swirled around the new PM and his future actions, here at Hello! Fashion, something far more pressing caught our eye.
The wardrobe of Keir Starmer’s wife, Victoria Starmer has never failed to impress. Not one to miss out on thematic dressing (red very much dominates Victoria’s wardrobe), Britain’s new 'First Lady' has mastered the art of political-chic styling.
Considering her work as a private NHS occupational health worker, it comes as little surprise that her wardrobe is precision personified. From iridescent longline gowns to crimson shirt dresses, the 50-year-old’s archive is a lesson in understated dressing. However, simplicity doesn’t negate style, as Victoria has proven time and time again.
Often spotted hand-in-hand with Keir whether gracing the local polling station or gracing the scene at Buckingham Palace, Victoria has consistently made a case for minimalism à la mode.
Edeline Lee, Veja and Needle & Thread are just a handful of timeless, royal-approved brands championed by Victoria, who faces the challenge of executing chic yet ironically conservative outfits as the top Labour lady.

Mid-wash denim, beige trench coats (oh-so Burberry) and black balloon-sleeve jumpsuits further pepper her collection, which we wait to see more of with bated breath.
Playing the part of politician's wife comes naturally to Victoria, whose wardrobe is only set to blossom in her time at 10 Downing Street with the slew of upscale event invites coming her way. Who knows, perhaps we can even expect a touch more oomph from Keir himself under the influence of his ever-elegant spouse.
So, get the kettle on and coffee ready, as you’ll want to be wide awake to witness what’s in store for Mrs Starmer’s wardrobe below.
