A look at the newly engaged star's knockout style.
By Celia L. Smith · Updated October 28, 2020
01
Leather Bound

Ciara got the party started right clad in leather with a flannel shirt tied around her waist at the 9th Annual Paper Nightlife in New York City.

Highlight

While folks sported black tie at the Elton John AIDS Foundation’s 12th Annual benefit gala, the singer shook things up in a bright yellow, beaded Emilio Pucci hooded dress with her favorite Christian Louboutin “Monicarina” thigh highs.

Black & White Affair

Ciara attended Paris Fashion Week’s Valentino show wearing the haute couture designer’s black and white lace, bead and leather concoction that was beyond sophisticated for the singer.

Givenchy Chic

Ciara’s Givenchy’s #1 fan, so it was only befitting for the singer to sit front row and fabulous in one of Riccardo Tisci’s frocks at Paris Fashion Week.

Read All About It!

Cece plays up her love for the paparazzi in Bernhard Wilhem’s “Post” sweater dress and Louboutin’s thigh-high boots at New York Fashion Week.

B-Girl Stance

The fashion industry darling heads out to yet another New York Fashion Week event donning her “Monicarina” thigh-grazing boots and a KYE sleeveless top with mesh netting beneath. Appropriately street chic for the occasion.

Tomboy Chic

Ciara was rocking sporty looks even before it was a trend; just check out the singers bustier and bomber matched with cool kicks at the Easy, Breezy, Brooklyn event.

Nude Night

At the MTV Video Music Awards Ciara gave them something to talk about: a barely-there Givenchy Couture gown with appliqués and feathers covering her lady parts.

Here Comes The Bride

If the newly engaged star’s bridal style is anything like the off-white Givenchy gown she wore to the Tate Americas Foundation Artists Dinner, it will be fabulous!

Pretty Prowl

Cece’s no stranger to walking on the wild side, but here she does it demurely in a leopard print Versace dress.

Slim Fit

The singer stuns on the red carpet (yet again) in a less-is-more leather ensemble. The singer’s Saint Laurent bandeau and pumps, Dominic Louis pencil skirt and Lorraine Schwartz jewels might be her best look yet!

Art of Style

Ciara steps out of the box and has fun pushing boundaries in a conceptual ensemble by Givenchy at Haze Nightclub in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Black Power

A little black dress is so much more when’s Ciara sporting it. An asymetrical neckline, body-hugging fit paired with matching platforms takes it next level.

Givenchic

Givenchy muse Ciara suppported her favorite designer Riccardo Tisci at his Fall/Winter 2013 runway presentation in Paris covered in a conservative-chic peplum number complete with split and sheer panels

Euro-Star

Ciara keeps it Euro-chic in Givenchy without question at BBC Radio One in London, England.

Star Studded

Clad in Givenchy (of course!), Ciara puts a nifty spin on comfort with a studded white sweatshirt, leggings and pointed pumps for that extra sexy touch.

Black Girls Rock

“It was so fun because it was sort of risky in a sense,” Ciara told us about this look. ” It definitely had the elegance too but it also had the attitude.”

Stage Presence

“I wore the Givenchy neckpiece he sent me fresh from the runway,” explained Ciara. “The look that I wore on the carpet had a gold clutch that went on the actual outfit. I liked the piece and placed it on here; but my outfit isn’t Givenchy. My stylist actually made it from scratch, but I still put a Givenchy clutch on there.”

Sheer Beauty

“This was really fun. I love this look,” Ciara said about this beaded Givenchy beauty at the MOMA. “This was one of my favorite things from him.”

Ruffled Feathers
“I liked taking a risk with this look. Again, pull back the hair sleek and still have the tomboy-chicness to it with the shorts and the tall boots that I wore with this. And it just really felt cool and different.”

Rock On!
“It was like just doing something, pushing myself, going for something different, and having fun! The Grammys is rock ‘n roll, you know what I mean? It’s the place to try and have fun,” said Cece about her rocker-esque look designed by Riccardo Tisci.

Sleek & Chic

“I really love the dress because it was so sleek and still gave edge. I was still able to be the tomboy that I am. I could be that and still have the sleek, kind of sexy edge to it.”
