Grammy-Winning Hitmaker Stuns in ‘Bonkers' Red Carpet Look, Captivating Fans: ‘I Want to Hate This But I Actually Find It Kind of Interesting'
Grammy-winning hitmaker once again proved her reign over the fashion world, turning heads at Paris Fashion Week in a sensational Schiaparelli creation. The artist stepped out in a striking, "macrame" inspired dress that immediately ignited a flurry of enthusiastic reactions, with fans celebrating her bold style and unique ability to wear even the most avant-garde designs.
The intricate ensemble, a testament to Schiaparelli's signature surrealist aesthetic, prompted widespread admiration for its daring vision and Cardi B's fearless execution. Social media platforms buzzed with excitement as fashion enthusiasts weighed in on the "bonkers" yet undeniably captivating look.
Online reactions poured in, with many praising Cardi B's inherent charisma and how she effortlessly embodies high fashion. One Reddit user articulated the sentiment perfectly: 'Strangely enough, I like it. And she's got the right attitude to pull it off.' Another agreed, noting, 'Somehow this is not wearing her, I like it.' Another said Cardi was the perfect person for such an over the top outfit, commenting, 'I think you have to have a big personality for this piece and she does. I also like that it's in the spirit of historic Schiaparelli work.'
Admirers also celebrated Schiaparelli's long-standing tradition of pushing boundaries. 'The awesome thing about Schiaparelli is that she (Elsa Schiaparelli) was making these sorts of looks back in the 1930s, so the house has always been off-the-wall. It's not them trying too hard to be edgy like some fashion houses; this kinda weirdness has been their bread and butter for nearly 100 years, and Cardi is wearing the [heck] out of it 👌,' one Redditor explained, giving historical context to the daring design.
The sheer audacity and artistry of the dress, combined with Cardi B's confidence, captivated many. 'I love it! It's bonkers in the best possible way and she's absolutely fantastic in it. Not everyone could wear this- Cardi is a total badass! I'm a huge fan of avant garde fashion when it's done well and worn by someone who can work it!' a fan enthusiastically shared. Another Instagram comment simply stated, 'This is stunningggg.'
Cardi B's unique ability to command such challenging pieces was a recurring theme. 'One thing I about Cardi is she is gonna wear the look, it's not gonna wear her and there aren't a lot of people I can say that about when it comes to this kind of fashion,' a user remarked. Her presence in high fashion also drew praise for promoting inclusivity: 'I really love to see her in high fashion. She always looks incredible- you really see girls with curves put in high fashion.'
Even those initially unsure found themselves swayed. 'I want to hate this but I actually find it kind of interesting,' one Reddit user admitted, humorously adding, "Also I'd be doing twirls to spin the beads out hahaha.' Another playful comment joked, 'Me going too hard when I first learned how to macramé.'

Armani couture channels black as maestro misses Paris bow for 1st time, days from 91st birthday
PARIS (AP) — Armani Privé opened Tuesday under an unmistakable shadow. For the first time in the 20-year history of his couture house, Giorgio Armani was not present in Paris to take his bow. Days from his 91st birthday and following doctors' advice after a recent hospital stay, Armani reportedly oversaw the Paris couture week show remotely from home, a moment of absence that lands heavily for a designer who has shaped every one of his brand's collections since its founding. The show's theme, 'Seductive Black,' played out with literal and symbolic force on the runway: black in myriad forms, from liquid velvet and lacquered silk to pavé crystals and flashes of gold. Even the models' makeup followed suit, rendered in shades of gray. For some in the front row, the relentless palette felt pointed. Guests quietly wondered if the choice of black was a coded message from the maestro himself. Armani missed Milan, too This is not the first major show Armani has missed this season. Just weeks ago, he was forced to sit out Milan Fashion Week for the first time in the label's history, following a brief hospitalization. According to the brand, the absence was a precaution to save energy for his Paris couture appearance. For decades, Armani — often referred to as 'Re Giorgio,' or King George, in Italy — has been both the creative and business force behind one of fashion's last great independent empires. The Tuesday collection balanced tension and control. After an uncertain start, including velvet jodhpurs and stark crystalline seams, Armani's familiar codes quickly emerged: tuxedo jackets transformed into evening gowns with plunging lapels and floating bow ties, tailored blazers worn on bare skin and military-inspired equestrian jackets paired with slim velvet pants. Bursts of embroidery and colored feathers provided a balance from the monochrome. A living fashion ma estro Armani's recent absences have sent ripples through the industry. In a landscape dominated by conglomerates like LVMH and Kering, Armani remains the sole shareholder of his company, personally overseeing every collection for nearly 50 years. In 2024, Armani Group reported revenues of $2.5 billion, while Giorgio Armani's personal fortune is estimated at $11–13 billion — even as the global luxury market faces headwinds. Armani is widely credited with redefining men's and women's tailoring, pioneering gender-fluidity in fashion, and inventing celebrity red-carpet dressing, from Julia Roberts to Cate Blanchett. Yet the designer himself has acknowledged that age is now a reality to deal with and that pulling back could be a necessity. Whether the monochrome collection was a deliberate metaphor or simply a showcase of discipline, 'Seductive Black' felt personal — both a mood and a message, perhaps an understated nod to a master whose presence, even in absence, remains absolute. As the show closed, the final bow belonged to the models alone. But Armani's vision — uncompromising and unmistakably his — filled the room.
