All the Incredible Designer Costumes in Madonna's Rebel Heart Tour
We may be in the middle of Fashion Month, a time when the fashion glitterati is typically consumed with designers, new models, and front-row celebs—but the topic at shows has been focused on one fashionable woman, who happens not to be at at the shows: Madonna.
 
Madonna's Rebel Heart tour is a must-see, if not for the classic — nay, extremely important — hits, like "True Blue" or "Holiday," then for the major fashion choices the pop star makes. (There's a reason Moschino's Jeremy Scott sat front row opening night in Montreal and that Givenchy's Riccardo Tisci took time out of his New York Fashion Week schedule to take in the concert.)
 
The always-evolving Madge has long evolved from her cone bra and rosary look, thanks to longtime costume designer Arianne Phillips, who says that Rebel Heart is her sixth and proudest tour yet with the "Like a Virgin" singer. "Collaborating with Madonna and my incredible team of artisans demands limitless imagination, invention, and thousands of hours of focused work,†Phillips tells Glamour. “It’s the most thrilling wild ride you could ever imagine.â€
 
And she’s not kidding! Look forward to more outfit changes from top designers including custom looks from Prada, Faust Puglisi and more. Standouts include looks for songs like "La Isla Bonita," for which she wears matador-inspired pants, by Nicolas Jebran, made from black tulle with transparent, beaded side paneling paired with a black and fuchsia jacket, which is covered in Swarovski crystals. The back of the jacket is adorned with the Latin letter M—for the Queen M. There is a flapper number, by Moschino, also crystal-studded, that was paired with dramatically long fringed Opera gloves for "Material Girl." Madonna and Phillips touched on a vast range of style touch points including from futuristic to tribal, not to mention Latin gypsy (Gucci!), samurai warrior, a little punk rock, and, of course, the chanteuse.
 
One thing that was constant throughout the carefully-constructed sets (including a last supper-like spread for "Holy Water" and a simulated gas station, replete with hot mechanics, for "Body Shop")? Madonna's smile. Cliche, as it may be, the 57-year-old provocateur looked to be having the time of her life. Her and everyone in the crowd, that is. Take a look at Glamour's favorite outfits from the Rebel Heart tour.

When the box office will be out?

 

From a brazilian news report (roughly translated):

 

"The first 6 shows of the 'Rebel Heart Tour', which promote her latest album, released earlier this year, have brought together about 130 000 spectators and raised around US $ 23 million, which in our devalued currency translates into almost 100 million reais (brazilian currency)! The two opening concerts in Montreal alone gathered about 40.325 people and amounted to US$ 9.3 million in Boxscore . As for the four shows on American soil , so far, they had an audience of 88.551 fans and a return of $ 13.6 million .

If Madonna continues at this pace, the new tour will close with more than US $ 230 million, which in Reais, would bring the show to the billions. Incredible , right?"

Check out the great pictures #RebelHeartTour stage by Stufish:

The Rebel Heart Tour has provided Stufish a chance to once again work on a spectacular show by Madonna, where the production value and attention to detail is some of the highest in rock and roll/pop entertainment. The stage and set design for the 2012 MDNA tour were incredible, and still, Rebel Heart tops that. Stufish have designed elaborate and bespoke statement props for one of the world’s most iconic performers of all time, as well as an intimate experience for the audience to witness one of the greatest shows of all time.

 

The show is a seamless transition between staging, choreography, scenic props, performers, musicians, lighting and video. All departments work together to create a bold and individual performance that constantly changes throughout the show. 

 

The stage shape is derived from a hybrid of an arrow, a cross and a heart. A long narrow catwalk leading from the main stage divides the audience down the centre and extends deep in to the arena culminating into the heart shaped stage. Half way down the catwalk is the horizontal cross stage spanning almost the entire width of the arena. This stage formation allows Madonna and her dancers to reach more audience, closer up and more intimately than ever before. 

 

The main kinetic feature of the stage is a complex “machineâ€, which allows for various acrobatic and scenic moments throughout the show. The machine is a 28ft wide x 16ft high video screen deck that assumes numerous positions; It can be flush with the main stage as flooring, act as an 8ft raised platform, a vertical wall that can tilt from flat to ninety degrees in 30 seconds and be an angled wall that performers can ride. There are specialized bungee points built in to the top edge of the machine which let performers flip, tumble, run and roll up and down the ramp, hang from and free run on the wall in any of these positions.
