It’s the penultimate episode of Kylie: Behind the Seams and O & Joe are going out with a splash! In this episode, they’re discussing one of Kylie’s most iconic stage shows, the Aphrodite Les Folies tour, with a deep dive into the bedazzling Beaded Swimsuit Costume.

Designed by Dolce and Gabbana, this costume was made specifically for the encore of the Aphrodite Les Folies tour in 2011. This beaded dress sits over a golden body suit, complete with a bejewelled swimming cap and cape.

You can view the memorable encore performance from the Aphrodite Les Folies tour here.

The Beaded Swimsuit costume from the encore of the Aphrodite Les Folies tour is preserved and cared for in the Australian Performing Arts Collection at Arts Centre Melbourne. You can view the costume in the online catalogue here.

Let’s get to it!
