The “Wanna Be” rapper, 31, returned to the fashion event on Sept. 25 for not one but two shows just 18 days after welcoming her third child, a girl, with estranged husband Offset on Sept. 7. The two also share son Wave, 3, and daughter Kulture, 6.
For her surprise comeback since her last appearance in 2023, the mom of three made two outfit changes that were fierce, fabulous and Cardi B-coded.
The Grammy winner’s first stop was the spring 2025 ready-to-wear Rabanne show. She lit up the audience in a plunging metallic gold dress that featured a fringe skirt that swooshed with her every step. Gold heels, a large statement necklace and ring plus and a teased honey blonde wig added to her gilded glamour.
Cardi’s next stop was the Balmain spring 2025 ready-to-wear show, where she sat front row next to France’s first lady, Brigitte Macron, per Instagram account StyleNotCom.
She put on a leggy display in a furry, belted emerald green coat that was styled as a dress. She also traded out her stilettos for a pair of towering black platform heels, which required Cardi to hold onto two men, seemingly bodyguards, as she walked around.
For her hair, she ditched the blonde and went for a sleek, black ponytail accessorized with a headband. The updo showed off her gold shell earrings.
Since giving birth earlier this month, Cardi hasn’t wasted any time getting back to the things she loves doing, like working out.
On Sept. 15, she updated fans on her postpartum exercise routine, which includes a 30-minute go on the stair master machine.
Though she was just being real about her post-pregnancy fitness journey, Cardi ended up clapping back at comments criticizing her lifestyle habits.
“This is my third baby and postpartum is a little different from my first two… I’m not doing heaving lifting, no muscle straining, squatting none of that… just cardio,” she wrote in response to a user on X (formerly Twitter). “Sometimes to avoid postpartum depression you gotta keep your mind busy and for me that’s work and staying active…”
“But you know what’s funny?? Y’all dragged me down when I gained 15 pounds because I was 5 months pregnant but now yall fake concerned and wanna talk about pressure??? Y’all said I was pregnant to avoid working now that you see I’m still at it it’s something else??” she added.
