Cardi B Brings Back the Polarizing Butt-Graphic Jeans For “Jealousy” Video
Leave it to Cardi B to nail the latest in sultry trends. The New York-born rapper is no stranger to rocking figure-flattering silhouettes, and her most recent look is no exception. For her new collaborative single “Jealousy” with husband Offset, the 30-year-old artist wore outfits that showed off her curves, toned abs, and, of course, impressive tattoo collection.
Cardi B is first seen in two alluring ensembles – a nude satin robe that quickly transitions to a metallic thong bodysuit featuring a plunging neckline and lace-up hardware, completely showing off her butt tattoos. She then switches things up with a Barbiecore-inspired look while rapping in front of a vintage car. The outfit was featured in an Instagram teaser post just days before the song’s release. The ensemble in question includes a pink cutout top that bares her cleavage, pink clear platform shoes to match, and the most attention-grabbing detail of all: blue high-waisted jeans with the word “jealousy” bedazzled across the back pockets. Accessorized with an array of silver jewelry, a lengthy pink manicure, and her hair done in a ’90s-inspired half-up, half-down style, the look is iconic.
The “WAP” rapper has developed quite the reputation for rocking catsuits and thongs. Earlier this month, she debuted a velvet bodysuit in the “Point Me 2” video with FendiDa Rappa, and she left little to the imagination in a brown thongkini bottom while promoting the song on her Instagram page. She’s produced other style moments that showcase her affinity for dramatic pieces, including her sartorial takeover at Paris Haute Couture Week that included a feathered black Schiaparelli coat and dress combination, an oversize men’s blazer repurposed as a two-piece skirt suit by Thom Browne, and a massive white tulle coat for the Balenciaga show.
