Shakira Handmade Her ‘Xena: Warrior Princess’ Outfit From the 2001 MTV Awards: ‘What Am I Wearing?’

Getting crafty! Shakira has had some pretty iconic looks through the years and as it turns out, she’s actually had a hand in making some of them.

Flashback to the 2001 MTV Music Awards, and the 44-year-old singer showed up in quite the interesting outfit. Complete with low-rise black leather skinny jeans, a feather-embellished crop top and a ready-for-battle headband, it was a look for the books.

As such, it’s no surprise that Vogue Mexico included the ensemble in Shakira’s My Life in Looks episode, which aired on Wednesday, June 22.

When looking back on her style choice, the singer has a few choice words about the getup. “I look a bit like Xena: Warrior Princess. What am I wearing? A top covered in feathers and a tiara and some leather trousers,” she recalled in Spanish.

While the outfit may not have stood the test of time in her eyes, it was exactly what she wanted back then. In fact, she even remembers designing the look herself.

“I think I made [it] myself,” she revealed. “Sometimes I design my own things to get myself out of a tight spot. When I can’t find what I want, it’s down to me. I fix them with the fitter or the dressmaker, whoever’s around. I don’t know what I was thinking there.”
