In one of the most anticipated reunions of recent history, the ladies of the Spice Girls came together for their first performance in four years at the 2012 London Olympics closing ceremony. The fabulous fivesome rode into the Union Jack spoked stage on light-encrusted London cabs and performed a medley of "Wannabe" and "Spice Up Your Life." Posh, Ginger, Baby, Sporty, and Scary were glowing and exuberant for this reunion performance, wearing updated high fashion versions of their signature Spice costumes.

We noticed Victoria Beckham tease via Twitter that she had a recent fitting with Giles Deacon and had stumbled upon a bedazzled microphone, so you can imagine our excitement when we saw Posh riding in on a Giles interpretation of her classic black mini. The British designer took the base of the go-to Posh look and made it more contemporary with tiers of ruffles and a giant high-low train that flapped behind her in the wind.
GERI HALLIWELL IN SUZANNE NEVILLE

Geri didn't appear in the Union Jack dress she made so famous during her tenure in the Spice Girls, but this red strapless by Suzanne Neville does have the British flag incorporated into the bustle. Ginger finished off her outfit with gold accents: glittery ankle boots and a sparkling tiara.
EMMA BUNTON IN MAGGIE COOKE

While not the babydoll silhouette she jumped for in the '90s, Emma's hot pink Maggie Cooke mini was still very befitting of her Spice personality. The candy-colored number had glittery structured shoulders and a low-dipping neckline, more mature interpretations of the Baby Spice steez.
MELANIE CHISHOLM IN SPORTY STYLE

Mel C took advantage of the sporty trend in high fashion with this white jumpsuit. From the racerback neckline to the side-slit pant legs, Sport Spice was a vision of on-trend athletic-inspired evening wear. Also, we can't put into words how much we love that she wore silver metallic sneaker wedges.
MELANIE BROWN IN ZUHAIR MURAD

Mel B was the QUEEN of leopard print and eye-buggingly loud catsuits, so it's only fitting that she should appear in a painted-on outfit for this anticipated reunion. Scary's Olympics ensemble was glittery gold and skintight. The bodysuit was the delicate handiwork of Lebanese designer Zuhair Murad which tooootally makes sense since it absolutely reminds us of the dramatic sparkly numbers he crafted for Jennifer Lopez's summer tour wardrobe. With an outfit so intricate, there's little need for accessorizing, so Mel finished the look off with gold heels and her signature wild hair.
