Madonna’s long-awaited MDNA tour kicked off few days ago, and for the creation of the clothes for her concert, a real show, the Queen of pop asked for the cooperation of some of the most famous designers. In addition to the stylistic creations by Alexander Wang, Hervé Léger, and Jeremy Scott, Madonna asked Miuccia Prada to create footwear with a heel for the male dancers.

But one of the most outstanding leaders of the wardrobe in question, is a reassessment of the iconic cone bra corset by Jean Paul Gaultier worn by Madonna in the eighties. Unlike the original, the corset for MDNA is a rigid structure, which resembles a cage, that Miss Ciccone wore on a male suit.

"We played with the ideas of a suit and a corset. But the corset is now like a cage”. "Jean Paul Gaultier explained to WWD magazine. "What I have done this time is a nod to the conical bra corset of the Blond Ambition tour but reinterpreted in 3-D, in patent leather on the outside with metallic leather on the inside. It's all about masculine and feminine, Madonna and Jean Paul Gaultier classics reinterpreted for 2012." In the photogallery are the first pictures from the MDNA tour.
