Madonna Makes Veiled Entrance to Dolce & Gabbana Show Referencing Her ’90s Style at Milan Fashion Week

Celebrities swarmed Milan Fashion Week on the last big day of runway shows on Saturday (Sept. 21), sending crowds of adoring fans from venue to venue. Designers previewed mostly womenswear for spring and summer of 2025.

Madonna sat in a front-row seat at Dolce & Gabbana, along with Naomi Campbell and Victoria De Angelis of Maneskin. Her bandmate, Maneskin frontman Damiano David, showed up at Diesel, one of the season’s hottest tickets, across town.

Madonna, attempting a semi-stealth entrance to Dolce & Gabbana, was draped in a black veil for a runway show referencing her ’90s style and celebrating the cone bra, which she debuted on tour in 1990.

Models in bleach-blonde wigs strutted in Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana’s signature corsets and fitted jackets, each featuring the aggressively feminine cone bra, in a collection that notes said “pays homage to an iconic and powerful female figure.”

Madonna wasn’t cited specifically, but the stars of the Milan designers and pop star have been aligned ever since they made costumes for her 1993 tour The Girlie Show. The tour promoted Madonna’s Erotica album, which launched alongside her taboo-breaking coffee table book Sex.

The collection, dubbed “Italian Beauty,” perfectly captured that moment in time. Cone bras peeked out of cropped jackets with a pencil skirt, garters swung from corsets and coats sculpted the body. Floral prints returned in a color scheme of black, nude, red and white. Oversized cross earrings accented the looks. Heels were unapologetically high.

After taking their bows, the designers walked down the runway to greet their guest of honor. Madonna, still covered by the Chantilly long lace veil fastened by a gold and crystal crown, stood to embrace them both.

No, you're just bothered I questioned your perspective, and rather just explain your point, you want to make it personal or make silly assumptions.  No worries. This will be my last response to you.  I'm here to have civil discussion with individuals not fight!  :Madonna032:

I agree to civil discussion, but you started your response to me with “what part of tribute don’t you understand”, which isn’t civil, and comes across as personal and full of silly assumptions. Clearly you understood my point as you edited your use of language after. It’s all good. I’m a thinking person and fully capable of moving on. I still personally feel it is lazy and uninteresting for Dolce & Gabbana to pay tribute to JPG’s designs with Madonna in attendance rather than pursuing their own original work, but understand that other people like yourself can definitely share and appreciate their intention and the craftsmanship in a way that I do not. Cheers!

 

P.s. the billboard article is even more distasteful! They don’t even mention Gaultier.

Actually, I edited that out because I understand the sensitivity.  So my apologies, but my intention wasn't meant to be uncivil. 

Anyway, I personally don't see it as "lazy" or "uninteresting".  It's just a tribute from one designer to another.  I applaud them for actually not making it all about their own designs and paying tribute to another.

I totally agree with you! It's mentioned as 90's style but the fact it was pure JPG style...

But the point was to pay tribute to that style?  I guess I don't understand what the hang up here is?   Why can't they show appreciation to a certain style that was iconic back in the 90's?
