David Beckham was in good spirits as he joined celebrity friends Anna Wintour and Kieran Culkin at a BECKHAM documentary screening in New York City on Tuesday.
The former England footballer, 49, cut a dapper figure in a navy double breasted blazer as he attended the event held at The Whitby Hotel.
David opted for a white T-shirt beneath the jacket and donned a pair of beige oversized trousers and suede shoes.
David was all smiles as he posed with Vogue editor-in-chief Anna, 74, who looked stylish in an satin blue and pink long coat, which she cinched in at the waist.
Anna looked incredible as she wore a burgundy pleated dress beneath the eye catching jacket and elevated her frame in a pair of white boots.

The Beckham event kicked off with a welcome from Anna, who is a longtime friend of the footballer and his wife, Victoria Beckham.
Anna said: ‘He is generous and he is kind and he is thoughtful. A boy from humble beginnings with an extraordinary gift who became world famous but never let it go to his head.’
Speaking about the project, David took to a small stage to greet the guests and give background on why he took on the documentary.
He said: ‘A lot of people wanted me to make a documentary for many years but I didn’t feel like it was the right time.

‘It was all about piecing the team together and putting the right director in and making sure I was surrounded with people that could jog my memory.’
It comes after David admitted he and wife Victoria have wondered how they have survived 27 years together given all that they have been through.
The former Manchester United player said they both became ’emotional’ watching the recent documentary series about him.
He said that despite all the ‘ups and downs’ in his life he is grateful they are still happy as it approaches their silver wedding anniversary in July.
David said: ‘That’s one of the things we both, me and Victoria, probably both get emotional about, and after watching the documentary after everything was over and we watched it finally, that’s the one thing that we looked at each other and was like, “I don’t know how we got through the last 27 years, but we did and we have an amazing family, amazing business and we’re happy.”
‘And yeah, of course, when you’re with someone for that amount of time, of course you have your ups and downs, everybody knows that and at the end of the day we were lucky because we had each other at those moments.
‘You know, she was a Spice Girl, I was playing for Manchester United, and even when we were going through the difficult times, we actually had each other to feed off and that was the best part.
‘Obviously we were 21 and 22 when we met. We got married when we was 23 and 24 and we had our first son when I was 23, so as soon as we had our first son, Brooklyn, that also added another layer to the family and our responsibilities then were to our son.’

David told the latest edition of the SmartLess podcast, which goes on general release on Monday, May 20, that he is ‘so happy’ at where his life is now.
David is busy pursuing his business interests with fashion and beauty brands as well as being part-owner and President of MLS football club Inter Miami after a glittering career as a player.
He explained: ‘I’m so happy. I am very happy because I feel very blessed to have had the career that I’ve had and played for the teams that I have and experienced that.
‘And the one thing that I always wanted for me, I was lucky I met Victoria when I met her because I always wanted to have kids young.
‘I always wanted to have kids that lived through my career with me and I was lucky the three boys all lived through most of the teams that I played for and that, for me, was a really important part of my life.’
