Let’s start with Schiaparelli Fall/Winter 2025, where Cardi arrived not in a look, but in a moment.
She wore a jet-black column gown with sharp architectural shoulders from the house’s Spring 2024 couture collection, layered with a dramatic cascade of oversized pearls—a look that read as wearable sculpture. But it was her accessory that stole global headlines:
A live crow, calmly perched on her gloved hand.
This was not a brooch, not a hat embellishment—an actual bird. As paparazzi circled, Cardi coolly instructed them not to use flash so as not to scare her avian companion. The moment went instantly viral. Was it surrealist homage? Animal performance art? Pure camp couture? In any case, it was pure Cardi.
🔥 Double Drama: Garnet Glam at Rahul Mishra
Later that day, Cardi did what few could pull off: a second couture look, a second spectacle.
She arrived at Rahul Mishra’s couture show wearing a deep garnet gown encrusted with rhinestones and covered in massive 3D floral appliqués—a blooming warrior in high fashion. She missed the show entirely (arriving an hour late), but it didn’t matter.
In true Cardi form, her entrance became the main event.

💋 Why Designers Love Her
It’s not just about the clothes—it’s about what Cardi does in them.
She treats fashion week not like an insiders-only affair, but like an open-air stage, injecting fun, chaos, and charisma into a sometimes too-serious space. She doesn’t try to conform to the stereotypical “fashion girl” mold. She talks, laughs, moves, emotes—and in doing so, sells the fantasy better than most runway models ever could.
“Couture isn’t about being safe,” as one stylist put it. “It’s about impact, and Cardi delivers that in spades.”
🎭 The Art of Spectacle
Whether draped in pearls, wrapped in rhinestones, or cradling a live crow, Cardi B doesn’t just wear couture—she embodies it.
