Spanish singer Rosalía stepped out in Rio de Janeiro on Sunday night wearing a sheer black lingerie-style mini dress to attend a Caetano Veloso concert. The artist left her hotel to head to the Jockey Club Brasileiro venue, where Brazilian music icon Caetano Veloso was performing alongside rapper Emicida on August 9.
Before departing for the event, Rosalía stopped outside her hotel doors to greet waiting fans. Her appearance came on the final night of the Doce Maravilha music festival, which ran from August 7 to August 9 in the Brazilian city.
Details of the lingerie mini dress
Rosalía chose a bold take on the classic little black dress for her night out in Brazil. The garment featured a short silhouette with thin shoulder straps and semi-transparent fabric panels across the body. The sheer panelling created the visual outline of a corset while revealing skin underneath.
The lower section of the dress continued the sheer aesthetic with a very short, voluminous skirt that alternated between opaque and semi-transparent fabrics. The piece combined romantic and dark elements, mirroring the provocative style choices seen in the singer's recent public appearances.
To keep the focus on the statement dress, Rosalía kept her accessories minimal. She completed the monochromatic outfit with black high-heeled shoes and wore her dark hair loose in its natural texture without elaborate styling.
Doce Maravilha festival and tour schedule
The concert at the Jockey Club Brasileiro formed part of the Doce Maravilha festival, an annual event held in Rio de Janeiro that showcases Brazilian music and collaborative performances. Veloso shared the stage with Emicida during the festival's closing evening on Sunday.
Rosalía's festival outing precedes her own headline performances in the city. The Spanish musician is scheduled to give two concerts in Rio de Janeiro on August 10 and August 11, marking her only confirmed live dates in Brazil as part of her current world tour.
