When Shakira kicked off her Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran World Tour at Sao Paulo’s Estádio Olímpico Nilton Santos last night, she did it in custom Atelier Versace. The two-in-one look consists of a crystal embroidered jumpsuit worn over a pink bodysuit inspired by swimwear from the brand’s archives. At each concert stop, from Latin America to North America, the artist will sport the transitional piece to promote her first album in seven years. Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran, which was released last March, was nominated for Album of the Year at the Latin Grammys and topped Billboard’s Top Latin Albums and Latin Pop Albums charts, making her the first woman to have a No. 1 album in four different decades.
The jumpsuit, which is embroidered with crystals, mirrors a flight suit. Around the waist are crystal net inserts and Versace design elements, including embellishments with the signature Greca symbol. The suit cuts away to allow Shakira to make a dramatic outfit change. Underneath is a pink bodysuit that is worn with matching a tulle miniskirt. The look has crystal embroidery inserts and silver Medusa icons at the bust and on the skirt. With it, Shakira wears matching tulle, crystal-embroidered gloves.
Shakira topped off the look with Versace’s Medusa Horizon sunglasses, which (spoiler alert!) will be part of the choreography of the show, and ultimately, be given to a fan.
