Rosalía’s fourth studio album, ‘Lux,’ represents a significant artistic evolution from her 2022 release ‘Motomami,’ embracing a fusion of 13 languages and frequent accompaniment by the London Symphony Orchestra. This ambitious project challenges mainstream, algorithm-driven pop culture by merging pop music with religious and transcendental themes.
Alongside the music, Rosalía’s fashion choices during the promotion of ‘Lux’ reflect a similarly sacred and transcendent motif. At recent fashion weeks, she maintained a celestial white color scheme, wearing custom pieces from Dior and Schiaparelli with delicate, ethereal qualities. The album cover features Rosalía styled by Chloe and Chenelle in a nun’s veil and a constricting top from Alainpaul’s Spring 2025 collection, evoking the image of religious ecstasy.
In music videos and promotional appearances, Rosalía continues this thematic fashion narrative. For the video of the gothic pop and avant-orchestral single “Berghain,” she dons archival pieces including a black dress and jacket from Alexander McQueen’s Fall/Winter 2002 collection, emphasizing romantic and powerful femininity. These rare fashion selections, sourced from London’s West Archive and Barcelona’s Algo Bazaar, include rosary bead sandals and a pleated pink silk dress from Nicolas Ghesquière-era Balenciaga’s Spring 2004 line.
Her onstage performances also carry this dichotomy between the divine and the earthly. At the LOS 40 Music Awards in Valencia, Spain, Rosalía wore a cream tulle and black overskirt gown from Dilara Findikoglu’s Fall 2024 collection, a design intended to convey divine feminine power that transcends time and reality. On the red carpet, her look included a feathered black cape by Balenciaga Spring 2026 and crystal-accented sunglasses, blending angelic and ethereal aesthetics.
Additional vintage pieces integrate into her wardrobe, such as Olivier Theyskens leather ensembles recalling the spiritual yet sensual styles of the late 1990s. Rosalía’s affinity for contrasting softness and structure continues with other items like a Vivienne Westwood bridal boudoir gown and a Thom Browne Spring 2026 skirt, reflecting both solemnity and playfulness.
At a listening event in Barcelona, she wore a sheer cream gown by New York designer Colleen Allen, which honored the female form with subtlety and reverence. Subsequent appearances have seen Rosalía adopt bold stylistic elements including a ruffled Chanel skirt, patent black pumps, Margiela knee-high boots, and a graphic “God Complex” T-shirt, illustrating her ongoing exploration of spiritual and stylistic contrasts.
The overall vision of the ‘Lux’ era is inspired by medieval mystics and saints, as well as figures who combined artistry with spirituality. Rosalía’s fashion and music together form a narrative of divine ascendance and earthly empowerment, establishing a distinctive aesthetic and sound that continues to evolve.
