Shakira’s 200k-crystal Cavalli moment lights up World Cup final

Shakira headlined the World Cup final halftime show wearing a custom Roberto Cavalli two-piece look covered in more than 200,000 hand-applied Swarovski crystals over about 120 hours. The sunset-inspired, Ray of Sunset-print ensemble—featuring a plunging lace-up neckline, cutouts and a draped, moulage skirt—echoed her 2010 World Cup Waka Waka moment while delivering a bold, color-packed statement amid the Spain–Argentina final and a message of peace, love and unity.
