During Vogue World 2024, Cara Delevingne Revived the Conical Bra to Paris.
When Madonna debuted on stage for the first time in 1990, she was wearing a pink satin corset with oversized conical cups below. She was wearing a neatly fitted pinstripe blazer. After the performance, she became an overnight sensation and a cultural icon, known for the conical Jean Paul Gaultier cone bra that she wore for 34 years. It was the garment that catapulted her to new heights.
Simone Rocha immersed herself for months in all of the Breton stripes, sailor hats, and ribbons in l’enfant terrible’s archive before creating an even spikier version of the piece that was the focal point of the “playfully provocative” haute couture collection she guest designed for Gaultier this year. “Like rose thorns!” she exclaimed to Vogue’s Sarah Mower about those upturned tips.
Shortly after, during the 2024 Met Gala red carpet unveiling, Vogue declared a resurgence of bullet bras. Stars like Kylie Jenner, Charli XCX, and Paloma Elsesser were spotted wearing gowns that emphasised their nipples, without trying to be too subtle about it.

After bringing Simone’s couture thorns to the Cannes Film Festival (saying, “I won’t lower the tone by going on about my horny dress”), Alexa Chung brought the collection to Vogue World: Paris, where model Cara Delevingne delivered a nautical yet classy outfit that included killer conical points.
For the occasion, former Vogue cover girl Cara donned look 15, from the spring couture collection, which features a playful, intricately laced corset paired with frilled shorts and a matching sailor-inspired hat trailing creamy ribbons. Cara hosted the livestream tonight, which tells the story of Vogue World’s expansive celebration of French mode, sport, and downtown Paris.
