From Beyoncé’s tour looks to Zendaya’s futuristic red carpet moment, Thierry Mugler’s designs have defined celebrity fashion moments.
If there’s one fashion house that has defined drama, glamour, and jaw-dropping red carpet moments, it’s Mugler. From its early days under Manfred Thierry Mugler to its current evolution, the brand has always been about making a statement. Mugler isn’t just fashion—it’s fantasy, architecture, and art, all wrapped into one.
Even after Thierry Mugler’s passing in 2022, his legacy continues to thrive, with A-list stars diving into the archives and rocking his daring, futuristic designs. From Beyoncé’s tour looks to Zendaya’s robot suit moment, here’s a look at some of the most unforgettable Mugler celebrity fashion moments.
1. Beyoncé’s Mugler Takeover
Beyoncé and Mugler go way back. In 2009, she personally requested Thierry Mugler to design costumes for her I Am…World Tour, resulting in 58 custom-made outfits that were nothing short of spectacular. She even wore the legendary Harley-Davidson corset from Mugler’s 1992 collection in her tour promo—originally seen in George Michael’s Too Funky music video.
But her love for Mugler didn’t stop there. She has rocked archival pieces for years, proving that Mugler’s designs are timeless.
2. Cardi B’s 2019 Grammy Showstopper
Nobody serves a red carpet moment quite like Cardi B, and her 2019 Grammy Awards look was one for the books. She wore a vintage Mugler Venus sheath dress from 1995, inspired by Botticelli’s The Birth of Venus. The dramatic oyster-shell silhouette made waves in the fashion world, and Cardi later changed into a second vintage Mugler look for her Grammy acceptance speech.
Her stylist, Kollin Carter, said he knew the dress would spark conversation, and he was right—people are still talking about it today!
3. Kim Kardashian’s Wet Look at the 2019 Met Gala
The 2019 Met Gala saw Kim Kardashian turn heads in a custom-made “wet-look” dress by Mugler, featuring a latex corset, dripping crystals, and an impossibly cinched waist. It was the first new Mugler design in over 20 years, proving that the designer was still ahead of his time.
Kim later shared that the dress took eight months to create, and she had to train her body to wear the ultra-tight corset. Dedication to fashion at its finest!
4. Zendaya’s Sci-Fi Fantasy in Mugler’s 1995 Robot Suit
One of the boldest Mugler moments in recent history? Zendaya’s jaw-dropping appearance at the Dune: Part Two premiere in London. She stepped onto the red carpet in Mugler’s legendary robot suit from 1995, originally designed for the brand’s 25th anniversary show.
The metallic bodysuit, inspired by the 1927 film Metropolis, was ahead of its time—and Zendaya proved it’s just as futuristic and fabulous in 2024 as it was nearly 30 years ago.
5. Diana Ross, David Bowie & ’90s Supermodels in Mugler
Mugler’s love affair with celebrities started long before today’s stars. Diana Ross graced his runway in 1991 in a sheer, sequin-embellished jumpsuit, while David Bowie wore Mugler on SNL in 1979 and even donned a custom black tuxedo for his 1992 wedding to Iman.
And let’s not forget Mugler’s iconic work in George Michael’s "Too Funky" music video, dressing supermodels like Linda Evangelista and Tyra Banks in his signature corsets, lace, and catsuits.
Mugler’s Legacy Lives On
With Miguel Castro Freitas stepping in as Mugler’s new creative director, we can’t wait to see how the brand’s legacy of bold, unforgettable fashion continues. Whether it’s on stage, in music videos, or dominating the red carpet, Mugler’s impact on celebrity fashion is unmatched—and it’s not slowing down anytime soon.
