Cardi B is known for her bold and daring fashion sense. She outdid herself at the 2023 VMAs with her metallic gown made entirely of hair clips. The dress was custom-made , and it featured hundreds of silver hair clips arranged in swirling and fanning patterns.She paired the dress with matching silver wrist cuffs and long, black hair styled in a deep centre part.The dress was strapless and had a high slit, showing off Cardi’s curves perfectly.
Who designed such an avant-garde creation?
Turkish-British designer Dilara Findikoglu, combined many silver clips together in a matching pattern. It was originally shown on Findikoglu’s fall 2023 runway as a mini dress and Cardi’s was custom made. To show complete dedication to the designer’s vision, Cardi even wore two arm cuffs with even more hair clips. Ironically, she didn’t don any on her head. The end result was a stunning look that was goofy and innovative.
Cardi’s dress was one of the most talked-about looks of the night, and it was praised by critics and fans alike. Harper’s Bazaar called the dress “a work of art,” while Vogue said it was “one of the most unique and eye-catching looks of the night.” Cardi’s dress was also featured on many best-dressed lists, including E!
