Bette Midler & Elton John – Flower & Vampire

The version of New York Restoration Project’s annual masquerade ball in 2005 was nothing short of iconic, thanks to two of the music industry’s giants making unforgettable entrances. With her unmatched theatrical flair, Bette Midler blossomed on the red carpet as a radiant flower. The petals, the colors, the details, everything about her outfit screamed ‘divine.’

It also reminded everyone of her movie “The Rose,” where she played a self-destructive rock star. On the other hand, Sir Elton John, always one to embrace grandeur, stepped into his vampiric side, finishing up his costume with his signature flashy glasses. It was a perfect blend of spooky and stylish.
