Just months after Beyoncé made a surprise appearance at the Luar show during New York Fashion Week, Madonna stunned attendees by sitting front row at the same runway event on Tuesday.
Arriving just before the show began at Rockefeller Plaza, Madonna’s presence sparked murmurs of excitement among the crowd. The 66-year-old pop icon was dressed in a short-sleeved camel trench coat with pronounced shoulders, black latex gloves, oversized sunglasses, and thigh-high leather boots. She completed her look with a large Luar bag. Madonna nearly stumbled as she entered, but quickly regained her composure and took her seat.
The audience was also star-studded, featuring celebrities like Ice Spice, A$AP Ferg, Tinashe, Hari Nef, Coco Jones, and reality TV stars Karen Huger and Jenna Lyons.
Madonna, who completed her Celebration Tour in April, recently reflected on her health struggles. Last summer, she experienced a serious bacterial infection that led to a coma. In a December performance, she expressed her gratitude, saying, “It’s a miracle that I’m alive,” and admitted she didn’t think she would make it.
At the show, rapper Offset also made a notable appearance. He walked the runway in a black leather trench coat with signature oversized shoulders, black leather gloves, and a black durag. Offset almost lost his footing but continued confidently.
Earlier this year, Offset completed his first solo tour and hinted at new projects, saying he’s constantly evolving and creating.
Joining Offset was Daniel “Julez” Smith Jr., Beyoncé’s nephew and Solange Knowles’ son. Smith, making his NYFW debut, wore an all-black ensemble including a mock-neck sweater, black pants, and cowboy-style boots. A$AP Ferg showed his support by applauding as Smith walked the runway.
The Luar collection, designed by Raul Lopez, was inspired by Lopez’s New York upbringing. The collection featured leopard prints and textured black outfits reflecting the city’s “primal instincts” and camouflage. The show introduced new Luar “it bags” and leather shoes, including clogs, oxford loafers, and knee-high boots with kitten heels.
