Cardi B turned the Little Miss Drama tour concert into her own runway as she donned a fully sheer bead-covered catsuit for the opening night. The rapper’s tour wardrobe has been nothing short of a spectacle. Designed by Kevin Germanier, the catsuit blended sustainability with glamour.
Cardi B’s fully sheer Germanier catsuit is upcycled into a beaded dream for Little Miss Drama Tour
Cardi B‘s catsuit featured a nude base that created a barely-there effect against her skin. Thousands of vibrant beads adorned the outfit from head to toe. Swirls of pink, fuchsia, lilac, and soft gold formed an abstract, almost painterly pattern that wrapped around her body. The beading was dense across the torso and hips, adding dimension and texture, while maintaining the bodycon silhouette.
The outfit’s high neckline and long sleeves balanced the sheerness. From afar, it shone under the stage lights like a mosaic brought to life. Each bead caught the light and reflected in different hues as she moved. The built-in draped detail at the hips added extra drama, enhancing the hourglass shape and amplifying the couture feel. It also had a cutout at the chest that would go unnoticed on first glance.
Germanier’s commitment to sustainable luxury spoke for itself. A post on the designer’s official Instagram page stated that they had to unravel some of their other creations to have enough beads for the catsuit. The post caption read, “Upcycled Couture (literally had to unmake some of our previous garments, slide 3) for @iamcardib and her tour @littlemissdrama styled by @kollincarter, @juanmarioortiz_ and Jennifer.”
In the comment section, fans praised the designer for the magnificent creation and their dedication. One individual wrote, “This is how costume transcends into fashion!” Some others commented, “This is so insanely cool,” and “Wowsers!!!” At the 2019 Bonnaroo Festival, Cardi B had worn a similar custom-made beaded catsuit by designer Yousef Al-Jasmi. It featured a multi-colored chevron pattern of purple, gold, orange, blue, and lilac.
