festival-fair · 2026-09-22

Cardi B graced the runway of Vogue World: Milano, donning a Versace dress from the spring 2018 collection, adorned with pop-art Vogue cover prints. She complemented her look with Tiffany & Co. bone cuffs embellished with gold and diamonds, along with Versace footwear. This event, held at the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, marked the inaugural fashion show at this iconic Milan venue. Cardi B showcased her style in the Patterns section, celebrating Italy's vibrant print heritage while tracing the evolution of Italian fashion from the Renaissance onward. Despite the pressure of a debut at such a prestigious location, Cardi is no stranger to the runway, having made her first appearance in Balenciaga's pre-fall 2024 show in Los Angeles in 2023. Her Versace ensemble held special significance, as Donatella Versace's spring 2018 collection honored her late brother Gianni, coinciding with the 20th anniversary of his passing and drawing inspiration from his archives, including his renowned spring 1991 collection.
