Paloma Faith Packs a Punch in Latex

BY admin on September 4, 2014

Adored for her signature rockabilly style, singer Paloma Faith wow-ed the crowd at a recent performance at the Roundhouse in London with a designer latex outfit. A former singer in a burlesque cabaret and sales assistant for Agent Provocateur, an iconic lingerie store based in London, Faith is no stranger to eye-catching fashion picks. Storming the stage with her pin-up worthy pout, Paloma had jaws dropping with her Jessica Rabbit strut.

Clad head to toe in black and white, Faith rocked out with a flirty peplum top paired with black latex leggings. Perfect for every shimmy and shake across the stage, the shirred detailing at the waist added volume and a wavy, three-dimensional texture. Her styling choices included a boxy, oversized bowtie and studded buttons, sealing the deal on her retro-chic inspiration. Those shiny, high-waisted leggings clearly amped up the volume on this edgy outfit, giving her an extra dose of sexiness and glam.

This mezzo-soprano diva paid homage to 1940’s, otherwise known as the “golden age” of Hollywood, by re-creating the classic looks of starlets such as Rita Hayworth and Veronica Lake. Staying true to her retro-inspired roots, Faith completed her look by sweeping her hair into an enviably gorgeous victory roll. (Yes, you can add it to your board on Pinterest. We’ve been there.)

Other key accessories included sky high platform pumps and a miniature beret amidst her voluminous curls. Her soulful chart topping singles, “Only Love Can Hurt Like This” and “Can’t Rely on You” were guaranteed crowd favorites, but Faith surprised the crowd with some well known classics. As she belted out her rendition of Chaka Khan’s classic, “I Feel For You” we have to agree, her monotone latex outfit was anything but boring! Who doesn’t like to stand out from the crowd? Faith leads the pack with a little va-va-voom, creating a fresh, tux-inspired outfit with a feminine twist.
