Thong jeans are so last season.
Mugler’s spring 2022 collection video dropped Wednesday, starring Megan Thee Stallion and some barely-there blue jeans sure to make you blush.
In the clip, the “Body” rapper twerks and twirls in a cutout denim catsuit that bares her famous booty, along with her legs and abs, for that matter.
Known for his inventive (and incredibly revealing) takes on the humble dungaree, designer Casey Cadwallader’s latest version incorporates nude illusion tulle for a naked effect, along with a built-in butt lift of sorts.
“The jeans have always had this strap that goes under the bum that’s like a body-shaping, lifting mechanism,” the designer said.
“We left the denim part under the bum, because if you’re going to show off your butt, you have to lift it up. We made one pair and when we saw them in the fitting and everyone was just like, ‘Oh my god, are we doing this?’ And I was like, ‘Yes we are.’”
And the Grammy winner’s just the first of many famous faces featured in Mugler’s vid; here’s also Bella Hadid in a nearly-naked LBD with strategically placed stars over the chest, Lourdes Leon in a strappy nude bustier, Chloë Sevigny pulling poses in ombré mesh, and supermodels Shalom Harlow and Amber Valletta smooching on the hood of a stretch limo.
Mugler’s daring designs are a huge hit with celebrities, particularly the sheer, strappy jumpsuits, which have been spotted on the likes of Irina Shayk, Dua Lipa, Beyoncé and Billie Eilish, to name but a few.
The brand’s also played a prominent role in brunette bombshell Megan Fox’s fashion reinvention; who could forget the scandalous black dress she wore to the 2021 Billboard Music Awards, or the completely see-through nude number Fox chose for the VMAs later that year?
