Cardi B makes ‘dream’ runway debut in dramatic faux fur coat at Balenciaga LA show
Just call her Cookie Monster.
Cardi B bundled up in faux fur as she made her runway debut in an enormous bright blue coat at Balenciaga’s fall 2024 show in Los Angeles — and the “WAP” singer’s fans had plenty to say about it.
“Yesterday was a dream! I had too much fun storming your runway!” the 31-year-old rapper captioned an Instagram post showing some behind-the-scenes looks from the fashion show, adding “DARE TO BE DIFFERENT 🖤💙❤️.”
Cardi B, who snagged her first high-fashion campaign by becoming the face of Balenciaga in 2020, strutted down a Los Angeles street that was shut down for the show as she sported the fuzzy, floor-length creation.
Underneath, the “Drip” singer wore a black bodysuit and the brand’s pantaleggings, adding a dazzling Balenciaga diamond choker, studs and a huge statement ring.
She wore her hair slicked back in a super-long ponytail that practically touched the palm-tree-lined street, walking the makeshift runway in black lipstick as the Hollywood sign was visible in the background.
Cardi joined another famous face on the runway: Brigitte Nielsen, 60.
Plenty of other celebs were in attendance, including Nicole Kidman, Salma Hayek, Brooklyn Beckham, Nicola Peltz, Kendall Jenner and Kim Kardashian, who toted an Erewhon x Balenciaga grocery bag purse to the show.
