Cardi B Takes Peacocking to New Extremes at Paris Fashion Week



Cardi B’s not exactly known for her subtle sense of style (or personality, for that matter). Just take the outfits that she’s worn in the past week alone: She’s gone all out channeling Fran Drescher in clashing animal prints (and furry glasses!) at Dolce & Gabbana in Milan, and just days later in Paris she stepped out in a Michael Costello gown and matching over-the-top hat, both of which were printed with peacock feathers. The joke here doesn’t seem to be lost on Cardi; she captioned her Instagram post with the proclamation: “I’m Mrs. OMG that bitch is shameless.”

If Cardi was riffing on the concept of peacocking before, she’s now taken it to new extremes. Cardi performed at the French lingerie brand Etam’s runway show yesterday in a lavender Christian Cowan suit that had massive purple feathers running diagonally down the jacket’s side. Cardi seems to be taking what some might hurl as an insult and defiantly making it the centerpiece of her outfit. Even though they were technically ostrich feathers, the look was still one of Cardi’s loudest statements yet—that is, until she steps out in something even more over-the-top tomorrow.
