Equestrian Segment |
In a true collaboration between Madonna and Gaultier, the Equestrian costume mixes elements of horseback riding gear with S&M bondage. Inspired by Romy Schneider in Ludwig, Madonna appears in top hat, knee-high boots, a see-through blouse underneath an asymmetric jacket, a pair of jodhpurs and finished off with a riding crop. Although she sports a long black pony tail at the back of her hat, she's clearly the one riding the male-dancers-turned-horses. As the second song kicks in, she takes off the jacket and hat, revealing her blond hair, tied in a bun. |  |
|
Bedouin Segment |
Gaultier continues with a 'Biblical Chic' look, consisting of a transparent mousseline blouse over red lycra body, burgundy velvet trousers and matching boots. To complete her image of a martyr, she wears a crown of thorns on her shoulder-long wavy hair. For the Sorry performance, Madonna exchanges the blouse for a brown leather jacket. As the segment comes to an end, she loses the jacket and shows off her assets. |  |
|
Never Mind The Bollocks Segment |
Influenced by the looks of 70s icons Lou Reed, Bowie & T-Rex, Madonna sports a glam punk outfit, consisting of tight black jeans and black leather jacket, finished with feathers in the collar. For the rock tracks, she plays the electric guitar, with a shoulder strap that reads "I (heart) NY". For Let It Will Be, the jacket comes off, and as she dances and spasms on stage, her hair becomes wild and messy. |  |
| Disco Segment | For the final part of the show, Madonna pays tribute to several disco stars. In the backdrop video for Music Inferno, she doesn't only reflect back on her own disco hits, but also appears as an acid queen with red Tina Turner dress. Madonna appears on stage in a classy white suit, dancing like John Travolta in Saturday Night Fever. On the tones of Erotica, she strips off the suit, revealing an asymmetric lycra outfit, once worn by Agnetha and Frida. ABBA gets another wink, when Nicki and Donna cover Madonna with a cape that reads 'Dancing Queen'. As M opens the cape, it shows twinkling disco balls on the inside. The show finale is performed in the infamous purple leotard, topped off with glittery jacket and sun glasses. |  |
