Cardi B needs no introduction...though, the crow on her hand might!

The New York native blew fans away when she arrived at Paris Haute Couture Week wearing a custom Schiaparelli piece. The garment is an elaborate one with a structured U-shaped design filled with gorgeous cream-colored tassels and beads on the upper half and a black velvet, form-fitting, floor-length dress on the bottom half.

All of these intricate elements come together to create a true Schiaparelli masterpiece.

The rapper wears her hair in a clean bob that adds to the silhouette of the piece. Her makeup flawlessly follows suit by also looking neat and pretty. Additionally, Cardi B accessorizes her custom attire with a pair of earrings consisting of two large oval-shaped pearls. She also spruces up the outfit further by wearing jet-black gloves on both hands.

However, the greatest accessory of all is the live crow—cleverly named “Crowdi B”—which she has perched on her hand. The rapper took to her Instagram to give her 163 million followers a proper introduction to her new “little friend.”

But wearing extravagant pieces like this comes naturally to Cardi B, as she has a keen sense of style that only she and her stylist Kollin Carter can bring to life. The clothes she wears are not only perfectly tailored to her immaculate taste, but also perfectly tailored to her body shape—a shape that she believes doesn’t always have the best representation.

“There are so many obstacles against us. For example, this body is not meant for a size 2. I’m very hips, a** and that’s me,” the “Money” rapper told The Hollywood Reporter back in 2024. “It was not easy, but we make it look easy. Our door was closed many times but we're here because we do it well. I’m not going to be humble about it.”

Carter echoed the same sentiments as his client, adding, “We’ve given look after look, year after year. We’ve reached into archives that are impossible to reach into. We caused a cultural shift. I don’t think there were many women like Cardi who existed in the fashion space. Now there are a ton of other rap females who aspire to be in that space because they see what's possible.”

Between this look and her ever-growing catalog of iconic styles, Cardi B may be growing closer and closer to receiving that “super stamp” she knows she deserves.

“My goal that I want to reach? A super stamp,” Cardi B replied when asked what she would like to achieve in the fashion space. “We’re young and doing it. We work our a***s off. This wasn’t easy. We got rejected so many times. There were shows we only dreamed to be in. And we’re here.”
