Yahoo Lifestyle Sabrina Carpenter Wears Bedazzled Victoria Secret Bodysuit for First ‘Short ‘n Sweet’ Tour Performance
Sabrina Carpenter sparkled in a custom Victoria Secret baby pink, bejeweled bodysuit — which even included a cheeky red-lipped crystal kiss on the hip — to open the first performance of her “Short ‘n Sweet” tour.
The singer made her grand entrance wrapped in what appeared to be a bath towel before ripping it off and revealing its bejeweled interior — and her bombshell look underneath. Carpenter accessorized with floral lace-topped fishnet tights held up by garters.

Styled by Jared Ellner, whose other clients include Rachel Sennott, Lili Reinhart and Emma Chamberlain, the custom creation took more than 140 hours to make, and was adorned with 150,000 hand-placed crystals.
The pop star has worn the lingerie brand twice before.
Last April, in billboard promotions for her 2024 Coachella performance, the musician was pictured wearing a vintage pale blue baby-doll dress.
At her VMA performance on Sept. 11, Carpenter descended from the rafters on a bling-ed out chair before singing a medley of her hit songs, including “Taste,” “Please Please Please” and “Espresso.”
Just as spectacular was her outfit: a Victoria’s Secret white corseted bodysuit with jazzy fringe detailing and another saucy pair of lips on her hip. The custom look featured more than 100,000 stones and 18,500 crystal beads, and took 180 hours to make.
Carpenter’s affinity for Victoria’s Secret comes as the brand prepares to return to the runway for the first time since 2018.
Its last show featured Victoria’s Secret Angels and musical performances by Shawn Mendes, Rita Ora, The Chainsmokers, Bebe Rexha, Halsey, Leela James, Kelsea Ballerini and The Struts.
The brand’s annual television special was canceled in 2019, and Ed Razek, the fashion show’s longtime chief marketing officer, left following a backlash against his refusal to hire plus-size or transgender models.
At the time, Victoria’s Secret was part of L Brands, and a 2020 exposé in the New York Times alleged a “culture of misogyny, bullying and harassment.”
Last month, the brand told WWD that diversity, equity and inclusion is now embedded into everything it does, from the runway to corporate culture.
