youngpopariana Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 (edited) I'm sure most of y'all are familiar with Shakira's brown two piece that she famously wore in the music video for her debut english single 'Whenever, Wherever' back in 2001. The sexy attire is definitely one of the most memorable looks in Shakira's long career. But would it be accurate to say it's an iconic pop girl outfit ? I was watching the MV on YouTube earlier and started wondering about this topic. Can pop stans let alone the GP easily identify the ensemble ? Does Shakira have more iconic outfits ? Has it stood the test of time ? Can it be put in the same vein as those well known pop girl outfits : Britney's red latex jumpsuit from the Oops music video Beyonce's black leotard from the Single Ladies's music video Madonna's cone bra Cher's yellow two piece outfit Gaga's red leotard with the hoodie from The Fame era Aaliyah's grey and black two piece outfit Britney's BOMT school girl outfit Miley's teddy bear bodysuit/beige latex two piece from the 2013 VMAs Gaga's meat dress Katy's California Gurls MV candy outfit Xtina’s leather pants + bra look from the Dirrty music video Kylie's white jumpsuit with the hoodie Madonna's white dress look (Like A Virgin) from the 1984 VMAs Rihanna's dress from Work MV Beyonce's Formation black dress with the braids and hat Katy's Superbowl two piece outfit (during California Girls) Shakira sporting brown low rise pants with a belt and a brown bikini-ish top while exploring Earth's natural wonders in the visuals for Whenever, Wherever. A simple yet very pretty look. It's an unsual outfit when you realize is Shakira wearing it while exploring the Earth's wonders lol. Have y'all ever seen someone use that look for a Halloween costume ? Has any celeb ever referenced it ? I think that would help answer my queston. You can now start discussing below !

None of them were snuck in. They’re all pretty legit tbh. Spoiler ok I’ll admit the Katy ones + Rihanna’s “Work” dess and Gaga’s red leotard examples are not like the others… Edited April 21, 2022 by youngpopariana Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spartan528 Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 (edited) Obviously. One of the most iconic music videos ever in pop culture. Have you seen the views on youtube?

This is the look I had in mind, Cher wore it at the 1973 (edited ; previously 1993) Oscars. As you can see, she was with her late ex husband Sonny Bono during that evening. Kim Kardashian and her friend Jonathan Cheban recreated the Cher/Sonny look for Halloween 2017 Edited April 30, 2022 by youngpopariana Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
