Hailey Baldwin had to be thinking of Posh Spice when she made plans to wear this LBD for a night out with friends in New York. Even if she hadn't imagined Victoria Beckham's '90s alter ego at first, there's no way she didn't think, "Hey, I kind of look like a Spice Girl" when she looked in the mirror before heading out the door. The 21-year-old supermodel, who is set to marry Justin Bieber, accessorised her own slinky Realisation Par number ($160), which she also owns in white, with chunky gold hoops and a structured leather bag.

Rather than strappy stilettos or patent Mary-Janes made for dancing, like VB wore in her early days, Hailey slipped into a very unexpected shoe: the suede mule. Her own modern touch, perhaps? What made Posh's "little Gucci dress" so iconic was the superthin spaghetti straps that just barely seemed to hold up the fabric of the design, and Hailey's piece follows suit. Ahead, we shopped for similar styles that you can choose to rock with any type of footwear you like — even sneakers, à la Emily Ratajkowski. Regardless, when you're wearing a mini like this one, we promise you'll step outside mouthing the lyrics to "Wannabe." How could you not?
