Cardi B made a dramatic entrance at the Schiaparelli Fall 2025 couture show on Monday, arriving with a live crow perched on her hand and dressed in a custom black velvet gown, turning the steps of the Petit Palais into her theatrical runway.

The rapper and fashion icon, 32, wore a one-of-a-kind Schiaparelli design featuring sculptural shoulders, cascading black fringe, and strands of pearls — but it was her feathered accessory that stole the spotlight. In videos from the scene, the bird calmly fluttered its wings as Cardi posed for a flurry of flashing cameras.

A viral clip on X (formerly Twitter) showed the “Bodak Yellow” artist gesturing at paparazzi to quiet down to avoid startling the crow. “Lmfaoo Cardi B telling paparazzi to quiet down so they won’t upset the crow,” one amused user posted.Cardi B: Credit Instagram
Another added: “Cardi brought a live crow on leash with her to the Schiaparelli show… she’s always fully committing to a look, love that.”
Many fans speculated the live crow was a nod to her upcoming album Am I the Drama?, whose cover art also features Cardi holding a crow — reinforcing her knack for blurring the lines between high fashion and performance art.
