Nicole Scherzinger wore a custom Gaurav Gupta Couture creation while performing at the FIFA World Cup 2026 Closing Ceremony alongside Robbie Williams and Laura Pausini. The trio debuted Desire, the official FIFA anthem, during a globally watched performance.
Designed specifically for the occasion, the electric blue couture ensemble featured a high-neck silhouette, a sheer corseted waist, hand-draped detailing and Gaurav Gupta’s signature sculptural pleated accent at the hip. Styled by Michael Philouze, the look was completed with a dramatic flowing train and matching electric blue tights, allowing ease of movement for the stage performance.
Commenting on the collaboration, Gaurav Gupta said, “Nicole has an extraordinary stage presence that is both powerful and effortless. We wanted to create a silhouette that felt sculptural yet alive in motion, allowing the couture to move with her performance. It was an honour to see this custom creation become part of such an iconic global celebration.”
