Wardrobe malfunctions weren’t even the remotest possibility when Madonna took the half-time stage last night at the Super Bowl. Not when she was dressed by Riccardo Tisci in head-to-toe Givenchy Haute Couture, starting with a cape hand-embroidered with gold metal pieces, studs, crystals, sequins and paillettes, followed by a black gladiator-style mini-dress with a leopard print short cape, and ending with a black silk coat embroidered with black sequins and micro pearls. (The over-the-knee boots, with heels personalized with the letter “M” framed by two gold metal crowns, are custom Miu Miu.)
