Interview about the clothes and concept of the tour.
Quote:
True to form, the modern-day bombshell opens nights on her epic, lately mounted Anti world tour wearing a Craig Green coat in stark white canvas atop a bodysuit. It’s an unexpected move, one of the stripe that’s made pop’s foremost style star the subject of so many fashion blogs and Instagram accounts. “It’s the opposite of what I did with her on her last tour,” Ottenberg tells Vogue.com
Ottenberg works closely with the tour’s choreographers and creative director, Willo Perron, talking about the dance moves entailed, and the larger aesthetic concept behind the show, while developing looks. But long before the lights go on to packed stadiums, Ottenberg had whiled away hours researching in the stacks at the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Anna Wintour Costume Center. There he set his eyes on images like those of Irving Penn’s of the ’80s. The resulting looks run the gamut from almost post-apocalyptic sex appeal (a second-skin lace-up bodysuit, courtesy of Adam Selman) to full-throttle opulence (Armani Privé’s glittering getup and chocolate brown cape).
“Craig made this white coat, and I really wanted to start in something with canvas, with no decoration or beading or anything, sort of as a fresh start. To me, it was anti what any pop diva would ever be wearing to open her concert
Wikipedia isn't a good source. 15k is probably for center-stage concerts.
Sold-out shows at this arena usually attract about 11.5k or 12k people, not more.
