Arianne Phillips, the brain behind the seams of Madonna's costumes is at it again. With the singer's upcoming Sticky and Sweet tour, launching Aug. 23, the costume designer is hard at work putting together a fashion masterpiece. Similar to her previous concerts, Madonna's costumes will range across four different influences: gangsta pimp, art deco, gypsy, and futuristic.
Don't expect age to affect her racy fashion statement. “She always wants to push the envelope. There are no vanity considerations based on her age; she looks good in everything,” said Phillips.
Topping the list of collaborating designers are Givenchy's Riccardo Tisci, who designed the singer's signature dominatrix costumes; Tom Ford, who provided custom suits for the band; custom-made shoes by Miu Miu and Stella McCartney; sunglasses from Moschino, and other outfits and accessories from Roberto Cavalli, Jeremy Scott, and Yves Saint Laurent.

I'm not that into them. From 2001 and up her costumes have lot their touch. After seeing Kylie's X tour those costumes were awesome. Oh Madge
1I find it very uncool that she wore black boots with white laces. Now every wannabe sheep is going to do the same thing. They should have draped her in a Nazi flag while they were at it.
2Can't wait!
3Love Arianne Phillips, especially circa Ray Of Light!
4i think even talking about the white laces thing is giving it too much validity. it's a group of ignorant people and their stupid symbolism should be ignored by the better informed.
