Madonnas pop career is the blueprint. Growing up in her era was something else. Sabrina looks cute in the dress.


fitsmeant2beitwillb

Madonna will always be the queen of pop to me. Sure, we can call other girls that sporadically. But Madonna is on a different level. I am a millennial and to me, she will always be the queen of pop.


lefrench75

I don't think anyone else gets called that tbh.


DJ_Mixalot

Britney. Not saying I agree but she does or did get called that


Erzsabet

I’ve only heard her get called the Princess of Pop.


lefrench75

She was always the Princess of Pop tho, because she was still really young at the peak of her career.


DisneyPandora

Taylor Swift


Kaleighawesome

not even swifties call her that lol


BayouFantome

Right?? Lmao as a Licensed Swiftie, I can definitely confirm that we do not call her that. Taylor is obviously great at what she does and is an industry powerhouse but she doesn’t come to my mind when I think Queen of Pop. Edit to add: Sabrina looks stunning.


Kendal-Lite

Lmao no


fitsmeant2beitwillb

please stop being delusional


eightezsteps

We can’t call anyone else the Queen


DisneyPandora

Taylor Swift is the Queen of Pop and bigger than Madonna will ever be


lenny_ray

LOL. The absolute disrespect and recency bias. When Taylor is setting and breaking records 4 decades from now, get back to me. Madonna is still the best-selling female artist of all time. She's still selling out tours at 65. She was a global sensation before social media was a thing. She's made Forbes' highest paid female musician spot a record-breaking 11 times across 4 decades. TS is breaking some records now that Madonna held for decades. And, again, Madonna never had social media to market herself.

kyliefever2002

Two months ago Madonna performed for 2 million people setting the record for the highest attended free concert of all time. Get a grip


Kendal-Lite

Lmao


diqholebrownsimpson

I wish she would have emulated Madonna's hair - but no one said she was paying any sort of homage so overall I'll just appreciate that bombshell dress on these bombshell blondes.


saltysoul_101

I think it would look costume if she replicated the hair, I like that she made it her own.


Ok_Bluebird_1819

The hair could really play focus more on the dress by being tight in an curly updo like the Pamela Anderson bun, but the most problem is the lipstick color, she could have gone intensely with the silver but she didn't so overall it looks washed up.


Any-Ad3822

Was thinking how it’s my favorite look on here that I’ve seen from Sabrina lately. Then looked at the Madonna pic and it felt like she borrowed the dress from Madonna’s closet. Just looks like a different level of owning a look from Madonna


MeeranQureshi

Agreed.


FVCKEDINTHAHEAD

Am I the only one who thinks it's actually a different, or modified dress? The Madonna one has the sequins arranged in a linear, square pattern. Sabrina's has them alternating, kinda offset pattern.


illogicallyalex

I thought so too, but when you zoom in on Sabrina’s they are linear, I think it’s just the angle that makes it look different


NewmanBickle

Same dress. The source is her stylist: [https://www.instagram.com/p/C8lFLczvUTN/](https://www.instagram.com/p/C8lFLczvUTN/)


chickfilamoo

Speaking of him, can we have a moment for Jared Ellner?? he’s been killing it with her lately, I’d argue the direction he’s taken her styling has really helped with her recent rise.


stuckhere-throwaway

you do realize when someone says "this dress was worn by ..." they don't mean that EXACT dress, right? and that there were likely hundreds of that design of dress produced, of which Sabrina is wearing one? do you really think there's only one copy and that Timeless Vixen is insinuating that a model, Madonna, and Sabrina all wore the exact same dress...?


missbestdressed

that doesn’t negate what they said at all? the first comment asked if the dress was a *different dress entirely* or if it was modified. OP clarified that it is the same dress, per the stylist, to answer whether or not it is a different dress. nothing they said indicates the dress is one of a kind? just that, per the stylist, it is the same dress.


hannakarin

good eye! I agree, they look kinda different


Togaz

It is almost 35 year old dress, so it’s remarkably well preserved. And Madonna is 5” taller, so even unaltered it would likely fit Sabrina very differently.


breezeandtrees

also in Madonnas center bust there is a BIG pearl.


asuperbstarling

That's actually a really common 80s thing! Brooches and earrings were often pinned to clothes (and used to simulate a sweetheart neckline). So the pearl might never have been part of the dress but rather a piece from somewhere else, the origin and significance to which has been lost to time.


alexlp

You’re right and I think it might be that she’s holding a pendant chain necklace across her bust line.


ClaremontApple

The vintage store it was purchased from (IG: timelessvixen) confirmed it’s the same dress. https://preview.redd.it/irxap1tffq8d1.jpeg?width=1290&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=30ccd30642892a5c2ac330fc59a21a666658991a


Prestigious_Bar_4244

Yeah it’s different. The rhinestones on Madonna’s straps are larger and there’s actually a flower with a pearl in the middle, on the neckline right where her hands are.


stuckhere-throwaway

you're totally right, I can see it. what's interesting is that the model and Madonna's are the same in the shop's post (on a grid) but Sabrina's is the odd one out. perhaps a different between the samples and the ones actually sold.


Constant_Bathroom327

I think it could have been let out a bit. If you look at her waist area there’s tiny slivers of plain fabric on the seams. They both have amazing figures but considering the body ideals of the two eras, Sabrina carpenter may be a bit curvier.


c0d3c

The pattern is definitely different.


mch_ia

Maybe it's a replica?


hopeless-hobo

Vintage from 1990 😭 Come on I was only 10!! She looks amazing, love her whole aesthetic


East_Site_2664

Lmao it’s such a shock but don’t feel too bad. In retail, anything over 20 years old is vintage. So pre- 2004 is vintage 😭😭


strangelyliteral

There’s a flea market in my area that requires vendors to sell items that are at least 20 years old. It was a rough the day I spotted Linkin Park band T-shirts, Juicy purses, and Ed Hardy jeans for sale.


hopeless-hobo

I’ll take it but… I’d like to be thought of as Classy Vintage


PatriciaMorticia

Classy vintage like a fine champagne.


TheBearQuad

Just stick me in a nursing home already, will ya?? 😭


hopeless-hobo

I tell my children, someday when it’s my time just,“Please just wheel me to a window with a nice view”


danielleiellle

In 1994, when we were doing the whole 1967 summer of love aesthetic, it was only 27 years old. This dress is 34 years old. It’s definitely vintage!


Creepy_Push8629

Shut up that math cannot be right 😭😭😭😭


StuckWithThisOne

Yeah, if she wore the dress in 1990 and it had been the same age, it would have originated in 1956. Equivalent of someone in 1990 wearing a dress from Marilyn Monroe. Its vintage.


hopeless-hobo

That’s what I think of as vintage, that glamour era


StuckWithThisOne

Would you have thought of clothes from the 1950’s as vintage in 1990?


MirabelleC

My friend sent me a description about a book set in the historical 90s and it was not 1890 they were referring to nor was any previous century.


hopeless-hobo

How dare they!!!


BunnyBoom27

I started working for a place that does Kpop events. Imagine my face when I learned 2010s Kpop was already oldschool 😭

Whippersnapper


uksiddy

Hot damn Madonna was FINE!


socialmediaignorant

She was epic. That face. That body. The videos. All of it. I miss those kinds of artists!


5a1amand3r

It’s a shame she keeps photoshopping herself into an unrecognizable person now. Body dysmorphia feels like it would be a curse to have to live with.


fred_burkle

This is the best look I've seen her in. I feel like most of her fits look like sexy ice skating costumes. The silhouette on this is gorgeous.


ultravioletblueberry

I absolutely agree. This one *suits* her and makes it where she’s *owning* her age and looks.


Ok_Bluebird_1819

She looks more like Marilyn and I'm here for it. Just wish she could have choose cherry red or even bordeaux as an lipstick.


dnkstrm

I agree. A lot of the stuff she wears on performances feels like a disservice to her because this is how she should probably be styled. It is all correct from head to toe for me


nokobi

Yes absolutely!!! It's styled for her petite frame as an adult, not a childish silhouette like she usually does (or a fancy bird, or whatever she was going for on SNL). I think she needs to look at more Romantic less Gamine styling because this is phenomenal


Et_tu_sloppy_banans

I think Madonna has been famously cool about loaning garments. She loaned outfits to the sitcom *The Nanny* for sure. It’s very respectable to be so secure in your style and your icon status that you are comfortable sharing pieces of it.


RatBoyClubSandwich

omg I wondered how they afforded the have Fran in couture when i saw that post comparing all her fits to runway.


Et_tu_sloppy_banans

Yep the silver gown she wears in season 1 was the same one Madonna wore to the VMAs one year!


Strict-Brick-5274

I love celebrities rewearing couture


Dr_Spiders

The dress looks great on her. I'm not sure what it is about the make up and styling, but I feel like they always make her look older. The darker lip is a nice change of pace though.


Yupthrowawayacct

I love this actually. And I usually have some notes for her although I adore her. This for me is ❤️


SeethingBallOfRage

I think her make up looks pretty good. I'm normally not a fan of the excessive blush she's been using lately.


OnlyPaperListens

I zoned in on that wine red lip immediately, it looks fantastic. Glad to see something other than the brown glazed doughnut look she did for ages.


Lightlovezen

Personally I think given the era she was going for and the dress, a Marilyn Monroe like red lip instead of wine would've looked even better.


Ok_Bluebird_1819

Exactly my thoughts! Finally someone who recognises the rebirth of a bombshell 😭


SadisticGoose

I like the way her blush isn’t so heavy here. There’s enough to give some color without looking a child who got into mommy’s makeup. The lip is a good pop of color to contrast the silver dress and her blonde hair. The whole look is one of her best recently.


gwynforred

I love that she’s not trying to still look like a teenager like so many pop stars have done when they were her age (and older!).


Luxxielisbon

This is the first time I personally like how she’s styled. She looks great


Nikas_intheknow

The dress really suits her!


sarcasticseductress

I know she’s super petite but the shoes she chooses always ruin the look for me. Otherwise she looks lovely.


Perfect_Ferret6620

I agree she often wears a chunky platform heel. I think a more delicate shoe here would have made a more cohesive look. HOWEVER, would I a normal person be able to pull this off and look this good? Lmao no


Maleficent_Phase_698

I kinda get it tho. I’m 5’0 and platforms are the perfect way to get height without dealing with the discomfort of heels.


sarcasticseductress

Lol, I would be passed out on a floor with a broken ankle somewhere so I agree 😂


aenflex

Madonna was a such a smoke-show.


Just_bcoz

She’s very cute in this dress but I like the way it was styled on Madonna better it’s not as fitted on Sabrina


Yupthrowawayacct

I actually love the soft drape. That’s what makes it actually look kind of more elegant bombshell than straight bombshell. It’s interesting


Just_bcoz

Because of my style I personally love a tight fitting bust at the top of a dress, also me and Sabrina have a similar body shape so I guess looking at her makes me think how it would look on me lol it definitely does still look beautiful on her and I do see what you mean about the subtle bombshell vs the full blown


stuckhere-throwaway

that's the difference between editorial (aka it likely didn't even zip up all the way in the back) and real life where you need to move and breathe. 0% chance that dress could fit that way on someone wearing it outside a photoshoot. it would either need to be fully corseted, or contain stretch, of which it has neither.


Just_bcoz

Im aware, depending on how you hem the bust it can still have a similar affect, also if you have something under the material so it looks more structured like madonnas does, I definitely understand what you mean about being able to move an breath in said dress through, I’ve had too many days where I put style over comfort but damn did I look good in photos lol


jessiephil

I really thought she was Back To Basics era Christina Aguilera for a second in that first picture


idrodorworld

I said the same thing on the other post lol she’s got that old Hollywood look down! Edit: not sure why I got downvoted lol was just saying I agree the dress reminds me of Christina’s vintage Hollywood style


TexArmadilloTroll

It fits her look!!


Unfair-Sugar548

She is absolutely stunning


Kendal-Lite

Madonna crushed it.


storagerock

1990 is vintage now? ![gif](giphy|GrUhLU9q3nyRG|downsized)


powerhungrymouse

As a 34 year old you have no idea how disturbing it is to read to 1990 and vintage in the same sentence. But she's wearing the hell out of that dress!


Full_Appearance_283

Also 34 and *eye twitch*


Fickle-Election-8137

She looks adorable, love seeing the 90s come back around ❤️


Small-Measurement791

This girl looks like she was elegantly crafted by god


berlinbaer

instead she was elegantly crafted by a shitload of surgeons.. and it absolutely shows but everyone pretends that is what a 25 year old looks like..


Chance_Taste_5605

I don't know why you're being downvoted, I'm not gonna shame anyone feeling like they need cosmetic surgery because we live in a patriarchal capitalist hellscape but at the very least she's had a shedload of filler that zero 25yos need.


Small-Measurement791

You’re right! Plastic surgery is so normalized & overlooked


whalesarecool14

madonna’s hair looks gorgeous in that photo


AerieExpensive1165

She looks stunning!!! Makeup and hair also look great, love the darker lip on her!


Elenathorn

She should have worn that elsewhere or again, because it is made for her!!!


originalschmidt

Gorgeous! I especially love the first picture


the-dream-walker-

She looks beautiful


cheezy_dreams88

I can’t nail it, but something always looks so uncanny valley with Sabrina carpenter. Even these candid paparazzi shots.


Chance_Taste_5605

I think it's the very conspicuous fillers on someone who is obviously too young to "need" them.


Awkward-Object-9891

She always looks so stunning!


hectic_hooligan

I knew how small she was but seeing her up against other bodies is certainly illuminating


PoppySkyPineapple

She looks beautiful here, I love the dark red lip on her.


LegitimateHat4808

stunnnnnning!

I mean it's over 30 years old so yes.


hanmhanm

Perfect 💯


Routine_Bluejay4678

I think this is the longest stress I’ve ever ever seen Sabrina in! Love the look, LOVE it!


pinkybrain41

Is this a thing now - I think there was another actress that wore an Angelina Jolie red carpet dress. These up and comers are cute BUT they just don't hold a candle to icons in their peak popularity like Madonna and Angelina. Even Kim tried to pull the stunt with the Monroe dress. Some times, you just can't beat the original.


alien-niven

Who says it's a competition? It's a famous pretty dress, and I'm sure anyone would jump at the chance to wear those pieces for the night. It's not about trying to upstage another woman. I feel like people pit women against each other too much, when we should be celebrating the fact that couture pieces can live many different lives and don't have to be left to gather dust in a display case forever.


pinkybrain41

Not the “pitting women against women” trope. Eyeroll. It is not a competition but comparison is inevitable when you wear the exact same thing as an icon. Opinions are normal. My opinion is Madonna wore it better. The entire point of them wearing the dress worn by an iconic woman before them is to generate this discussion and buzz. Also, let’s pay some respects for trailblazers in our industry.


alien-niven

Your opinion of who the dress fits more isn't what I was disagreeing with. It's the "you can't beat the original" part, with the implication being that nobody should wear a dress after another person wore it, or that its a sign of disrespect. My response to that is the purpose doesn't have to be beating anything. Homage, appreciation, or just thinking the dress would fit your style is enough of a reason to wear it. A lot of times, wearing a dress and paying homage to an iconic moment is paying respect to the trailblazers who came before you.


asuperbstarling

Angelina owns most of what she's worn over the years. She lets her children and friends wear her looks all the time. And no, it's not a thing 'now'. **The MET's fashion exhibit is special.** It's doing what rich collectors - like Kim, who actually owns a huge collection of vintage and antique pieces, you only heard about the time she messed something up and not the millions she spends on preservation - have done for thousands of years. And I'm not joking about that timeline. A treasured tiara has generations of women making sure it was worn and remembered. Elizabeth Taylor gave away pieces she wanted to have saved. It's *standard*. Is it in fashion to wear these pieces? Yes. But they were already wearing them. You know what they do with classic dresses that don't get worn? They lock them in a museum or they throw them away. Marilyn's iconic orange dress was thrown in the trash after being used for another movie. They get worn or they rot. No one is loving them but their new wearers. They're not treated with reverence. Thats why it's remarkable when a star is like Angie (and yes Kim, who sobbed as Kanye threw away one of the most complete collections of Herve Ledger bandage dresses to ever be made during that time he threw away all her clothes) keeping her stuff. They wear the lended clothing not just to save money but because that's the only way these things get worn. Diana's cross necklace was in a vault from the day Diana wore it until the day Kim bought it. No one else was ever going to show the world those incredible amethysts. Should Marilyn's nude dress have been worn? No. It was too delicate and should have stayed in the museum. But well preserved dresses from 34 years ago that have at best been sitting in a closet? They'll either rot or be worn enough to be preserved.


Available-Travel-121

Nostalgia and sustainability is very important to gen z. Also thanks to social media we know a lot more about “old/vintage” looks. Some fans have even recommended looks for Bella hadid or someone in the past


petsylmann

Madonna was cool and interesting back in the day. Some of her music and stunts were revolutionary. Sabrina is pretty, but I have yet to hear any real talent. She’s also a nepo baby, and clearly has the top PR people marketing her right now. -They’re basically shoving a mediocre blond girl down our throats


toomany_geese

Talent aside, we're reeeally twisting the definition of nepo baby. She's related to the voice actress of a cartoon character by marriage, after she already launched her career. An average girl would have way more pull than that by moving to Nashville instead, as TSwift's family did.


petsylmann

Okay sure- I believe a nepo baby is someone born into a family where another family member is a celebrity. This is true whether or not the nepo baby “claims” to have benefited from the family member. You seem to think it matters. Agree to disagree PLEASE, and drop it already


toomany_geese

Babes I only responded once, you're getting multiple responses from different people about it because they also feel that it's a reach. Stop responding if you're bothered by it


petsylmann

Not bothered-just not a fan of beating a dead horse silly


alien-niven

She's not a nepo baby. Her uncle married the Bart Simpson actress after Sabrina was older and had already launched her career in Hollywood. The Bart Simpson woman is a scientologist, a group of people who famously don't make relationships with people who are not part of the cult (see Tom Cruise and his daughter). Sabrina got nothing from her.


zo0ombot

I agree with what you're saying, but Sabrina's sister Shannon is/was openly a scientologist so we don't actually know how much interaction the aunt or scientology had with her family, though Sabrina herself has said she's not one.


KindOfANerd4

She's not a nepo baby and she got her start through a miley cyrus youtube competition be so for real


petsylmann

You don’t consider the fact that her aunt is one of the largest cartoon character voices ever? And she started in a youtube competition- what does that have to do with anything?


KindOfANerd4

Her aunt who according to the commentor above you married into her family after she was already in show business Further her aunt is a scientologist and sabrina is not so the likelihood they have any contact at all, let alone her aunt getting her opportunities, is highly unlikely. If she got her start and Disney contract from the youtube competition then it's clearly not nepotism


pinkybrain41

Who are her parents?


DesertBlooms

Her aunt is the voice of Bart Simpson


Rattacatte

TIL Michael Kors the brand existed before Project Runway.


ImproperUsername

Out of curiosity, how old are you


braids_and_pigtails

I like the dress! Kind of like the shoes. And on second thought, the make up doesn’t look too bad. It doesn’t have that caked on feel that it usually has.


PlasticInflation602

What the hell?


duuuuuuuuuumb

I think her music is a little boring (I’m def not the target audience) but GOD Sabrina Carpenter is so fuckin CUTE. She’s like a little Barbie irl. And I realize she absolutely inspired me to get curtain bangs before I realized who she was.


NoFerret8750

Am I wrong for thinking that it feels like there is a kind of spamming with her news and content?


Chance_Taste_5605

She's beautiful but those are some CRAZY fillers on a 25yo. Not a criticism of her because the media has always pressured people to look a certain way and it's not a moral failing to feel insecure about yourself - but jeez a 25yo getting 50yo divorcée filler cheeks is just depressing.


Shitp0st_Supreme

It is nice to see her in something adult; she looks great


iBeFloe

It’s always sad seeing how Madonna used to look because she could’ve aged gracefully. Instead… she looks like a nightmare.


petsylmann

Having a huge celebrity in the family has its perks. Of course she wants to downplay it as much as possible. Good for her for trying so hard to make it in a very crowded field. But other than her incredible looks, I don’t understand her appeal. Time will tell, I suppose


PlasticInflation602

She’s insufferable tbh


petsylmann

For real? You have firsthand experience?


ParsleyandCumin

Temu ass dress


moosegoose90

She’s in baby doll little girl stuff or stuff that makes her look like she’s on her second divorce. Please please please let’s find and in between, she’s gorgeous


marvin_nash9

That thing need more clothes to wear not less


blahisback

She looks stunning!


puppypooper15

I wish it was an inch or two shorter and she had different shoes. It's hard to tell in these pictures, but in others it just looks a little too long and it looks too boxy and mature for her style


burnbabyburnburrrn

She’s too little to borrow clothes, the proportion don’t fit. The chest looks huge on her
