Cardi B Is Our 2018 Style Icon, And Here Are Her Best Looks

Cardi B is the most relevant, dynamic, and gag-worthy artist out there. Because everything she touches turns to gold. From her raps, to her collabs, online content and music videos, she is flawless.

And Bardi is in that peak pop-star phase where everything she does makes news. But if everything about her right now is iconic, nowhere is that more evident than her looks. Cardi’s personal style is eclectic, distinctly her own and game-changing.

Recently, she turned up to New York Fashion week to capture every bit of attention there is. So it feels like the perfect time to take a look back at the last year of Cardi B pics that demonstrate her trend-setting style.

Cardi B has to have the best coat collection on the planet. Being a Bronx girl, you need coats to protect you from New York’s blisteringly cold winters. Here Cardi’s fur is embellished with newspaper-type headlines.

She is like a glam ransom note, and who doesn’t love a good remixed fashion piece.

This 1940s-inspired pantsuit, fur, and glasses ensemble was worn at the Christian Sirano show at this year’s New York Fashion Week.

Here Cardi gets points for how incredible the overall look is, while getting bonus points for how incredible each separate piece is.

The glasses alone would land this look on the list, but then add in a white-fur stole, mint-green suit, and her signature nails, and you have an all-time classic.

At Marc Jacobs

How Cardi turned out as many instantly iconic New York Fashion Week looks is beyond me. There isn’t a dud in the bunch; every single one slays.

While she went 1940s at Christian Siriano, at Marc Jacobs she is embodying Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany’s glamour, and it is an all luxe success.

Cardi B makes the snowswept streets of New York a brighter place. Diverging from the New Yorker uniform of black, on black, on black, Cardi B shatters the antiquated rule of ‘no white after Labor Day’ to stand out from the pack.

The pops of color and white pants/fur combo are enough to make winter bearable for a few more months.
