Grammy-winning R&B singer and New Orleans native Ledisi took the stage at Caesars Superdome in New Orleans for a “Lift Every Voice and Sing” performance ahead of the 2025 Super Bowl. The Greater New Orleans High School Choral Collective backed her.
Ledisi wore a 831MINHLE structured white suit with a tailored jacket featuring sharp lapels, a cinched waist and a draped peplum detail. The ensemble styled and conceptualized by Mikey Freeman incorporated a flowing floor-length skirt overlay attached to high-waisted pants, creating a dramatic silhouette that moved fluidly during the performance. The wide-leg trousers extended to the ground, subtly covering her shoes.
Her accessories included gold rings and a delicate pendant necklace. She wore white nail polish that coordinated with her overall look. Her hair was styled in voluminous, side-parted curls and swept to one side.
