Madonna’s son David Banda, 16, just paid tribute to one of his mother’s most iconic fashion moments. 

On Saturday, May 29, Banda wore a look from the upcoming Adidas x Gucci collection (launching on June 7) to the WBA World Lightweight Championship in New York City. For fans of Madonna, the ensemble rings a bell.

Banda wore a red long-sleeve maxi dress with a V-neck and white stripe details, plus, of course, the Adidas logo. Banda styled the look with black sneakers with white soles, layered gold necklaces, yellow-framed sunglasses, and a black bag. 

Gucci honored both Banda and Madonna in a post on Instagram that explained the look’s significance. “David Banda wore an adidas x Gucci dress in a past-meets-present moment—his mother, Madonna, was captured in 1993 wearing the dress it was inspired by. The archival original was part of an official collaboration between the sportswear brand and Laura Whitcomb of Label NYC and re-envisioned by Alessandro Michele within his Exquisite Gucci collection,” Gucci wrote in the caption.
