The history of Madonna's cone bra
Madonna first wore the cone bra on her Blond Ambition tour in 1990, kicking off one of the most controversial and beloved eras of her music, which paved the way for her to become the icon that she is today.
The cone bra was designed by Jean Paul Gaultier, and was one of the main outfits she wore on tour, with her first wearing a pinstripe suit and shedding clothing items until she uncovered the cone bra suit underneath. Madonna's version was pale pink and was a part of a corset that was styled with a belt.

“When Madonna first called me in 1989, it was two days before my ready-to-wear show, and I thought my assistant was joking,” said Gaultier in an interview with The New York Times. “I was a big fan. She knew what she wanted—a pinstripe suit, the feminine corsetry. Madonna likes my clothes because they combine the masculine and the feminine.”
