Madonna, 67, slips into a naughty bridal outfit… 42 years after she modeled a wedding gown for Like A Virgin
Madonna, 67, embraces a flirtatious bridal style 42 years after her Like A Virgin days
The pop icon, now 67, recently stepped into a bridal ensemble complete with lace gloves and a refined veil for Dolce & Gabbana’s latest campaign. This look appears to echo her 1984 music video for Like A Virgin, where she wore a provocative wedding dress that became iconic.
A vintage-inspired collaboration
The color images, posted on Instagram, followed the release of a black-and-white commercial featuring Madonna as the bride. The caption, “
LA BAMBOLA … 🩷
,” translates to “The Doll” in Italian, a subtle reference to her timeless appeal.
Madonna has continued her partnership with the Italian design duo, serving as the face of their 2025 and 2026 collections. Her figure remains striking, showcased in a corseted top paired with a sweetheart neckline and lace undergarments, alongside fishnet stockings and white pumps.
Front-row magic at Milan Fashion Week
During the Fall-Winter 2026-27 show at Milan Fashion Week, Madonna made a memorable appearance. As her hit song You’ll See played, she and her partner Akeem Morris were seated beside Vogue’s Anna Wintour, drawing attention from other guests who captured the moment.
Her presence was both elegant and bold, with loose blonde hair and a black blazer over a dark minidress. Turquoise leather gloves added a splash of color to her otherwise monochrome ensemble.
A legacy of style and partnership
Madonna’s collaboration with Dolce & Gabbana dates back to the 1990s, highlighted by her 1991 appearance in a bodice adorned with stones and crystals for the Truth Or Dare film preview. The designers also crafted costumes for her Erotica tour in 1992 and the Drowned World Tour in 2001.
Her recent visit to the Dolce & Gabbana showroom saw her in a lace veil for the Spring-Summer 2025 collection. The new fall and winter line, however, featured transparent lace gowns, skirts, and big-shouldered pinstriped suits, reminiscent of her early aesthetic and the visuals from her Vogue music video.
The collection also included bold elements like faux furs and animal prints. Models twirled before Madonna and Wintour, showcasing mirrored double-breasted suits with lapels on both sides. The designers, Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana, ended the show by embracing the Queen of Pop and escorting her backstage.
Madonna, who has been married twice to Sean Penn and Guy Ritchie, continues to redefine bridal fashion with her signature blend of sensuality and sophistication.
