Cher turned heads at the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show in New York this week, where she arrived with her boyfriend, Alexander “AE” Edwards.
Although their affectionate entrance caught attention, it was Cher’s daring outfit that became the talk of the night.
As usual, the internet had a lot to say about her choice of clothing.
The 78-year-old icon sported a bold look from The Attico’s Spring/Summer 2025 collection—featuring a fishnet top under a black blazer, paired with oversized, baggy leather pants, and a statement belt.
Despite the outfit being daring and avant-garde, reactions were mixed online.
Some critics were quick to express their disappointment with comments like “mama what you wearing,” and “Ughhhh… yeah, not the look.”
Cher’s blonde hairstyle also became a topic of conversation, with one user jokingly saying: “Whoever dressed her needs to get fired!! How dare you!!!”
Yet, Cher’s boldness won over many fans, who celebrated her fearless approach to fashion.
Supporters rallied behind her with comments like “She looks insane 🔥” and “Cher is a true icon. I truly adore her.”
One fan summed up the sentiment by stating: “I’ll say it. Cher’s style is horrendous. But I live for every waking moment of this woman!” proving her ability to stay relevant and adored, no matter the fashion risk.
After her attention-grabbing entrance, Cher dazzled the crowd with a performance later that night, changing into sparkling oversized cargo pants and a shimmering strapless top cinched with a leather corset.
The switch from blonde to her iconic long black hair added to the transformation, and her performance of hits like Strong Enough and Believe was a major highlight of the night. As Victoria’s Secret returned to the runway after a five-year hiatus, Cher’s presence added a legendary touch to the show.
Victoria’s Secret had announced Cher’s headlining performance in September, hailing her as an “icon,” “legend,” and the “mother of fashion.” The brand posted on Instagram, “It’s a woman’s world, so it’s understood that you can’t have a fashion show without the mother of fashion herself—@Cher!”
Cher’s influence continues to defy the limits of time. In an interview with CBS in August, she spoke candidly about her approach to fashion, saying, “I always just do what I want,” highlighting that clothes hold little significance to her beyond being “pretty.”
At 78, Cher remains a trailblazer in both fashion and music, her impact as enduring as ever. We love to see it!
