Tyla's latest accessory? A glitter tattoo advertising her new album
The biggest talking point in Tyla's London party look wasn't her denim skirt or sparkling heels, it was the glittery APOP* tattoo across her lower back
Singer-songwriter Tyla turned her album rollout into a Y2K fashion moment at the exclusive A*POP record release party held on Thursday at 77 London in Central London. Hosted for a select group of fans, known as Tygers, and music industry insiders, the singer debuted a glittery temporary lower-back A*POP tattoo that doubled as a stylish teaser for her second studio album, due on July 24.
Leaning into early-2000s nostalgia, Tyla paired the sparkling ‘tramp stamp’ with a white criss-cross bralette, a low-rise stone-wash Gucci denim skirt and crystal-embellished Christian Louboutin heels. Slicked-back hair, barely-there accessories and body glitter ensured the temporary tattoo remained the centrepiece of the look.
The 14-track A*POP features previously released singles CHANEL and SHE DID IT AGAIN, a collaboration with Zara Larsson, and marks the Grammy-winning South African star’s sophomore album following her 2024 self-titled debut. The fashion-forward reveal aligns with the Y2K aesthetic that has become central to Tyla’s personal style and the visual identity of the new era. HTC
