On Monday (4.24,) Madonna took to her Instagram account and shared several photographs of her most beloved career looks. Having rediscovered the images in her extensive storage space, the Queen of Pop captioned a series of photos alongside her most iconic throwback pieces of clothing.
Born Madonna Louise Ciccone, the legendary songstress’ slideshow features a number of Jean Paul Gaultier-designed cone bras that she donned throughout her 1990 Blonde Ambition tour.
“When I was a little girl I remember my mother was always cold. Partly because she was sick but also because she never had a coat,” wrote Madonna. “She always spent what little money we had on our coats and I remember standing outside waiting for the schoolbus With my mother shivering in the cold in the middle of winter!! Years later when I became successful my mother’s sister said to me, ‘Now You can buy all the coats your mother couldn’t buy for herself!’”
“The journey from the memory of my shivering mother in Winter to me shivering in the over air-conditioned storage space where all my costumes are stored is quite remarkable! I am overwhelmed with gratitude. Every time I put on an incredible coat I think of my Mother. I hope she likes my taste in costumes but most of all i hope she’s warm!”
Paying homage to her 40 years of hits, Madonna is less than three months away from kicking off her Celebration Tour on July 15 at the Rogers Arena in Vancouver, and a complete list of dates can be found here.
