Leave it to Cardi B to make one of the most dramatic entrances of Paris Haute Couture Week—and somehow upstage the show itself. The Grammy-winning rapper, fashion risk-taker, and queen of viral moments rolled up to the Rahul Mishra Fall/Winter 2025 runway event and instantly shut it down. And no, it wasn’t just the couture—it was the live crow on her arm.
Yes, really. A crow. At Paris Fashion Week. Welcome to Cardi B’s world.
🖤 Cardi’s Couture Entrance Came with a Guest Star (Feathers Included)
Cardi arrived outside the Petit Palais in a sculptural pearl-covered Schiaparelli gown that shimmered from every angle. But what really caught everyone’s attention? The glossy black crow perched calmly on her gloved hand.
Like a true diva, Cardi asked photographers to lower their voices so the bird wouldn’t be startled. The moment instantly went viral—and just like that, Cardi reminded the fashion world that couture isn’t just about clothing. It’s performance, it’s storytelling, it’s a whole mood.
💎 The Mishra Moment (That Happened Without Her)
For the Rahul Mishra show, Cardi changed into an opulent deep burgundy gown embellished with rhinestones and oversized floral motifs—a signature Mishra blend of nature and craft. Paired with a glittering diamond necklace, chandelier earrings, and a slicked-back low bun, Cardi looked like a walking piece of art.
The only catch? She showed up 75 minutes late and completely missed the show.
But when you’re Cardi B, being late doesn’t matter—you become the show anyway.
💇 Beauty Notes: Sleek, Sharp, and Sculpted
Her second look featured a sleek, high-fashion bob styled with a deep side part and slicked finish. With soft glam makeup and minimal accessories, Cardi’s team kept the focus where it belonged: on the couture and the crow (because, let’s be honest, that bird had presence).
🎶 Foreshadowing Her Next Era?
The whole moment felt like more than just fashion—it felt like a teaser for what’s next. Cardi’s upcoming album, rumored to be titled Am I the Drama?, now has a visual theme: dark, theatrical, and totally unapologetic. Whether intentional or not, this Paris appearance doubled as an album-era soft launch.
Fashion and music? She’s syncing the rollout like a pro.
🗣️ In Her Own Words
As Cardi recently told press: “Great outfit. Every time.” And she’s not wrong. From feathers to fringe, this was pure fashion theater—and we loved every second.
Final Thoughts
Cardi B didn’t just attend the Rahul Mishra show—she redefined what a fashion week appearance can be. Between a couture bird companion, late arrivals, and two unforgettable looks, she proved (yet again) that she isn’t just showing up—she’s making statements.
In an industry full of predictable moments, Cardi is the chaos we crave. Always bold, always original, and always a little too much—which is exactly why we can’t get enough.
Need the look? You can’t. But you can watch, take notes, and remember: fashion isn't about following rules—it’s about rewriting them. Cardi B just did that, with a crow on her wrist and couture on her shoulders.
