Madonna makes statement at Luar NYFW show with Ice Spice

Pop icon Madonna stole the spotlight at the Luar NYFW show, with Ice Spice sitting front row and Offset modeling.

Madonna captivated attendees at the Luar New York Fashion Week (NYFW) show on Tuesday, just months after Beyoncé made headlines at the same event. 

Arriving at Rockefeller Plaza just before the show began, Madonna drew whispers of "Is that Madonna?" as she took her place in the front row.

The 66-year-old singer was dressed in a short-sleeved camel trench coat with strong shoulders, black latex gloves, oversized sunglasses, and thigh-high leather boots, complemented by a large Luar bag. 

She nearly stumbled as she entered but quickly regained her composure before sitting down.

The audience also featured celebrities such as Ice Spice, A$AP Ferg, Tinashe, Hari Nef, Coco Jones, and stars from "Real Housewives of Potomac" and "Real Housewives of New York," including Karen Huger and Jenna Lyons.

Madonna, who concluded her The Celebration Tour in April, recently reflected on her "near-death experience" last summer due to a bacterial infection that led to a four-day coma. 

At a December show, she remarked, "It's a miracle that I'm alive," and "I didn't think I was gonna make it this summer, but … here I am."

Offset, who also played a significant role in the show, modelled a black leather trench coat with pronounced shoulders, black gloves, and a black durag. Despite a slight stumble on the runway, Offset maintained his poise.

Offset, fresh off his first solo tour, told USA TODAY earlier this year that he is "cooking up so I can create a new story. I'm like in a labyrinth; I always have to be moving."

Daniel "Julez" Smith Jr., Beyoncé’s nephew and Solange Knowles' son, made his NYFW debut in an all-black outfit. His appearance was met with enthusiasm from A$AP Ferg, who cheered as Smith walked the runway.

Raul Lopez’s collection, showcasing the "primal instincts" of his New York upbringing, featured leopard prints and textured black designs that echoed the city’s urban landscape. The show introduced new leather footwear, including clogs, oxford loafers, and knee-high boots.
