Adele debuted a new style in Las Vegas last weekend, performing at the Colosseum in a 'stunning' polka dot dress by British-American designer, Harris Reed. 

It's no secret that the British superstar has been serving up killer outfits ever since Weekends with Adele kicked off last month, and it looks like she's not about to disappoint her fashion admirers any time soon. 

Adele took to the stage of the Colosseum at Caesars Palace on Friday in a gorgeous black dress by Harris Reed for the French fashion house, Nina Ricci, for the fifth installment of her soldout Vegas residency. Fans were quick to admire the velvet gown's gorgeous details, which included an off-the-shoulder neckline and billowing sheer sleeves in black tulle embroidered with polka dots. 

The Easy on Me singer completed the dramatic look, which was made all the more special by a sprinkling of Swarovski crystals, with a knotted hair bun, glittering hoop earrings by YESSAYAN, and glossy black nails. The knockout ensemble comes just a week after Adele celebrated a 'divorce party' on Weekend Four of her Las Vegas residency.  

The custom-made gown was quite the change from the 34-year-old's previous Vegas dresses, most of which have featured opaque sleeves. 

Its designer, Harris Reed, took to Instagram after the show was over to share his excitement about the dress's debut. The 26-year-old said he was "honored" Adele had chosen to wear his gown, before hailing his celebrity client as "somebody that completely embodies, magnifies and shines with true femininity.

"It’s hard to put into words what this moment means to me. It often feels as if the entire culmination of my life’s work has led to this moment." 

Reed, who was appointed the Creative Director of Nina Ricci in September 2021, is best known for his gender-fluid identity and for challenging gender norms with his innovative designs. He graduated from Central Saint Martins in London in 2020, and in 2021, he received the accolade of "Breakthrough Designer" in GQ magazine's annual Men of the Year awards. 

Reed's dress for Adele has received mostly positive feedback, with many people taking to his Instagram to compliment the design and congratulate him on his career milestone. 

One impressed follower called the gown, "Dress of my dreams", while another said it was "gorgeous, especially the sleeves."
