Strap on your heels and touch up your lip gloss because Cardi B came ready to battle at Paris Fashion Week [1] this year. After turning heads in a feathery red dress from the 1995 Mugler autumn couture collection [2], Cardi executed another showstopping entrance outside her hotel in France, and the corset on her most recent gown basically doubles as a suit of armour.
Like a vision of Catwoman ready for the red carpet, Cardi came prepared in a 1997 Mugler spring dress with a mesh floor-length skirt. Over the skirt, the textured bustier was layered like the panels on a knight's armour and lined with feather trim. The outfit even comes equipped with removable sleeves — ya know, in case the need to strike a pose became critical. While the look, styled by Kollin Carter [3], seemed to be missing a sword, we definitely noticed the "Up" singer's sharp black manicure, aka her Catwoman claws for the night, which made the look truly purr-fect. Take a peek at Cardi in the vintage Mugler gown here.
