Did you catch USHER lighting up the O2 Arena this past Saturday? The past EBONY cover star officially kicked off his highly-anticipated Past, Present, Future tour, and let me tell you, he came through dripping—literally.
USHER stepped on stage in two jaw-dropping custom outfits that were nothing short of a fashion moment. The first look? A dramatic floor-length coat paired with a matching hat that had us all feeling like we were in a whole new galaxy. Designed by the talented Robert Wun—a name you might recognize from the Swarovski Global Young Talent program—this ensemble was not just an outfit; it was a work of art.
Picture a sleek black fabric backdrop adorned with 4,871 dazzling Swarovski crystal beads, sparkling like the night sky. And it only took 480 hours of hand embroidery to bring this masterpiece to life. Talk about dedication!
But USHER didn’t stop there. To celebrate a whopping 30 years in the game, he switched it up in a custom crystallized suit by Marni that was pure fire. Crafted at the Swarovski Manufaktur Atelier, this suit featured 4cm strips of sew-on crystals running down both arms and pant seams—making it the perfect fit to showcase USHER’s undeniable charisma and confidence.
From the outfits to the energy, USHER reminded us why he’s a living legend. This tour is not just a celebration of his past hits; it’s a powerful statement of where he’s headed next. If this opening night was any indication, we’re in for a wild ride! So, if you haven’t already, you better grab those tickets and witness the magic for yourself. USHER is here, and he’s shining brighter than ever!
