It was no more a surprise that the stunner had big plans for the eve, the minute she stepped on the red carpet in a custom Schiaparelli piece by Daniel Roseberry. The rapper donned a black crepe jersey column dress teamed with a black tulle veil. Larger-than-life chandelier danglers with surreal anatomical features adorned her ears while those black gloves with pierced golden nails covered her arms. However, the cherry on the cake was her golden sculpted face mask studded with Swarovski embellished piercings. Ooh, mama…
DANGEROUS CURVES AHEAD...
For another red carpet appearance, Cardi stunned in a Christian Siriano look that accentuated her envy-worthy curves. The fesity thigh sit and cute cuts on the neckline made things only better!
ITS SHOWTIME
After stunning everyone on the red carpet, the pop-singer slipped into an embellished black velvet dress featuring a thigh-high slit from Alexandre Vauthier. Adding to the essence of her showgirl look was the dramatic feathered headgear from the designer’s FW21 couture collection that complemented those killer bangs!
RISE AND SHINE
Cardi shone bright in a custom Mélique Street blazer, that bore embellished structured shoulders and studded boots. Always an element of drama! The dazzling neckpiece, shiny rings and nails added to the bling affair of her look.
HELLO SUNSHINE
For her next change, the pop sensation added a pop of colour to the gala with her bright yellow Jean Paul Gaultier FW19 Couture dress featuring a gathered waist, cape sleeves, high neckline and a flowy train behind her.
MONOCHROMATICA
Brining put the dramatic headgears yet again, the rapper put on a show in another iconic piece from the shelves of Jean Paul Gaultier.
GLAM BAM
For her fifth outfit of the night, Cardi oozed glamour in yet another velvet, figure-skimming look from Jean-Louis Sabaji FW21 collection. Her purple body-hugging number was embellished with Swarovski crystals on the neckline and dramatic feathered shoulders.
DRAMA MAMA
Her next look, again from the shelves of Schiaparelli was a work of display. The stunner donned a structured denim jacket decorated with the label’s signature golden detailing all over. Not dimming the limelight on her iconic jacket, Cardi paired her look with a pair of leather pants and thigh-high boots. Those Schiaparelli earrings were unmissable!
HAIL MARY
Saving the best for the last, Cardi looked divine in her all-white look from Miss Sohee’s FW21 Couture collection. Her crystal-embellished dress with a feisty slit and long train was paired with a structured headpiece that added to the elegance of the overall look. So gorg!
