Madonna has never been one to shy away from outrageous costumes and fashion statements, but the new designs for her upcoming "Sticky and Sweet" Tour (starting this August) are above and beyond. According to WWD, offering a sneak peak, "Givenchy’s Riccardo Tisci designed two outfits, while Tom Ford provided bespoke suits for the band. Three pairs of shoes have been custom-made by Miu Miu, there are thigh-high boots courtesy of Stella McCartney, sunglasses from Moschino, and other outfits and odds and ends from Yves Saint Laurent, Roberto Cavalli, and Jeremy Scott." Um, can we have some?
Apparently, the concert is broken up into four stages: "gangsta pimp and Art Deco," "Old School . . . with vintage Keith Herring prints," "gypsy" and, finally, "futuristic rave" with Japanese influences. Like a prayer? More like a dream come true. [WWD]

Madge looks like some sort of fleeing secret agent in black trench and Chanel's 'Chaine' sunglasses. Of course, the metal, plastic and lambskin shades have a Chanel price tag to accompany at $530, which, per PR, are available at both the Rodeo Drive and Robertson Boulevard boutiques. We like the security guy behind her, who looks utterly unamused by the whole situation. Get a closer look at the glasses after the jump. [Racked Inbox]

Oh, Sellebrity! Whether famous peeps are designing something-or-other or simply lending their faces to sell merch, the celeb/fashion mash-up is sometimes genius, at times hilarious and always on our radar.
1) Madonna: This is what you call serious product placement. Having created a necklace for the pop queen for her 2005 Confessions On A Dance Floor performances, Chopard has stepped up again for Madonna's Hardy Candy album cover, being released April 28. Check the "M-dolla" knuckle ring with "258 brilliant cut white diamonds with a Chopard signature mobile diamond in the flourish of the letter 'M,'" per the press release. How many M-dollas is that worth? [Racked Inbox]
2) Nicole from The Pussycat Dolls: Because who cares what her last name is. First, for a bastardized version of Duran Duran's "Rio," click here. This phonic blasphemy—not even defending Duran Duran here, it's just generally horrendous—was created in the name of Caress Brazilian Oil Infusions Body Wash, per PR Newswire. Watch Nicole in the recording studio with Caress conveniently located behind her, just in case she has to take an emergency shower. [PR Newswire]
