Taylor Swift protege (and superstar in her own right), Sabrina Carpenter, is taking the European stage by storm. And, while her tour performances are undeniably stunning, it’s her with her Short n’ Sweet wardrobe that’s got everyone talking. From the UK’s O2 arena to the streets of Instagram, the Espresso singer’s outfits have become the talk of the town. In fact, Google searches for “Sabrina Carpenter Outfit Inspo” have skyrocketed by over 90%, according to influencer marketing agency Socially Powerful. And, we can totally see why – her stage costumes are nothing short of jaw-dropping! So, what’s the real cost behind Sabrina Carpenter’s Short n’ Sweet Wardrobe? Let’s break it down. Spoiler alert: It’s a small fortune!
Custom Victoria’s Secrete corset bodysuits
First up, Sabrina’s stunning monochrome corset bodysuits, each designed by Victoria’s Secret, feature rhinestone details, custom garter belts, and even cheeky phrases like “Taste me” and “I’m working late” on the tights. These bodysuits come in colours like butter yellow, pale pink, and fiery red – setting the stage for a truly unforgettable performance. The price tag for each piece? Between AU$15,000 and AU$22,800! Talk about couture on stage.
Black lace capri catsuit by Jean Patou
Next, we have Sabrina’s show-stopping second-act look – a custom black lace capri catsuit by French couture house Jean Patou. This outfit screams elegance with its crystal-covered opera gloves, bow-adorned neckline, and sequined lace that took a whopping 60 hours to create. The price of the luxurious look ranges between AU$22,800 and AU$30,400. And, prove that lace, bows, and a little sparkle can go a long way.
Swarovski crystal-embellished Ludovic de Saint Sernin two-piece
And, for the grand finale, Sabrina turns heads in a custom two-piece ensemble by Ludovic de Saint Sernin. Complete with Swarovski crystals and custom-made crystal-encrusted ultra-platform Naked Wolfe boots. With colours ranging from pink to blue to black and red, these outfits sparkle from head to toe – literally. At an eye-watering price range of AU$30,400 to AU$38,000, this look is definitely one for the fashion history books.
Fashion v finances …
Louisa Rogers, Trend Analyst at Socially Powerful, points out that the value of these high-end tour costumes often appreciates over time. Especially if they’re associated with iconic performances or cultural moments. Just look at how Chappell Roan’s vintage sequined outfit from her “Hot to Go” music video sold for AU$133,000 at a charity auction!
Sabrina Carpenter’s Short n’ Sweet Wardrobe may cost a small fortune. But, with her jaw-dropping performances and iconic looks, it’s clear these outfits are worth every penny.
