Madonna: Fifty and Fabulous

Madonna - wearing Jean Paul Gaultier's cone bra in her 1990 Blonde Ambition tour. It's now nearly two decades later, but this image is no less iconic. Her Sticky and Sweet tour starts in a week and a half - maybe this time she'll be a little more yummy mummyesque? Of course not! Bring it Madonna - only you could rock into your fifties (hard to believe, but google tells me so - in 3 days Madonna will be 50!). Who said 50 isn't the new 30?!

She starts with gangsta pimp and art deco looks from Givenchy... Then she continues onto Throwback/Old School looks from her New York days - with vintage prints from friend Keith Haring:

Working with phenom Riccardo Tisci of Givenchy again for a stunning gypsy inspired look:

She ends her show with a futuristic, Japanese inspired section.

Drawing a who's who in fashion, Madonna's got two outfits from Riccardo Tisci, bespoke suits for her band by Tom Ford, custom made shoes from Miu Miu, thigh high boots from Stella McCartney, sunnies from Moschino and a little bit of everything from YSL. Yes, she may be turning 50 - but Madonna is STILL a 'material girl.'
