Over 93 hours, 2,880 hand-set crystals and Gaurav Gupta’s signature sculptural style beautifully matched Adele’s power-packed performance, when the Grammy and Oscar-winning singer walked on stage in the Cosmic Black Saturn Orbit Gown.
Returning to the Colosseum at Caesars Palace for the opening night of her 2024 “Weekends with Adele” residency, Adele looked ethereal in the exquisite custom gown designed by Gupta. This performance not only signifies the start of a highly anticipated residency but also marks the first time Adele has ever donned a creation by an Indian designer, making it a milestone in the global fashion landscape.
Blending the artistry of Indian couture and celebrating it with the globally-acclaimed international singing sensation, Gaurav Gupta expresses, “Dressing Adele for the opening night of her Las Vegas residency is an extraordinary honour and a defining moment for us. Her voice, presence, and grace align perfectly with the cosmic, timeless beauty we aim to capture in our couture. This gown is not just a creation; it is a celebration of art, music, and the magic of global couture.”
Adele’s gown featured a sculptural asymmetric off-shoulder drape adorned with intricate three-dimensional bugle bead embroidery and 2,880 hand-set crystals. The piece of art reflected Gupta’s signature architectural style. Crafted over 93 hours by a team of five artisans, the gown’s 244 varied crystals add a sophisticated luminosity that matched the grandeur of Adele’s stage presence.
“This collaboration is a dream fulfilled and a testament to the power of vision, with a dynamic global icon donning an Indian design on one of the world’s most prestigious stages-marking a pivotal achievement in fashion and setting a new benchmark for cross-cultural elegance and artistic expression. Partnering with stylist Jamie Mizrahi, whose expertise brought this vision to life, was an exceptional experience that further underscores the spirit of creative excellence,” says Hema Bose, founder of Maison Bose.
Gaurav Gupta’s collaboration with Adele is not only a celebration of cross-cultural artistry but also a testament to the expanding global recognition of Indian couture. By taking centre stage at one of the world’s most iconic venues, this partnership represents a significant achievement for Gupta.
