Cardi B’s royal purple Gaurav Gupta design made its debut on the catwalk just five days ago at Paris Fashion Week
From runway to red carpet! Cardi B’s 2023 Grammys red carpet look just made its debut on the Paris Fashion Week runway.
The “Up” rapper, 30, showed some skin in a royal purple draped gown featuring dramatic sculptural hooded and statement shoulders. The form-fitting gown, designed by Indian couturier Gaurav Gupta, made its debut on the Paris Fashion Week runway just five days before the Grammys. The design highlighted Cardi’s figure and showed off her abs with an exposed front cutout, plus a deep plunging neckline. The rapper accessorized with sparkling hoop earrings and rings for some major bling.

She wowed with her hair, which was worn in a short rose gold pixie (thanks to her hair pro Tokyo Stylez, who dyed and styled her wig using Joico products). “I felt it would be better to go with short hair off the shoulders so the wardrobe stands out for the performance,” Stylez told PEOPLE at the time. “We did the same hairstyle in black the night before and Cardi loved it, so we did the same thing but in rose gold for the Grammys.”
The 2023 Grammy Awards are airing live on CBS and Paramount+ Sunday night from the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles.
