DUBAI: Pop icon Madonna has been spending time in Morocco, sharing a series of images that document a richly layered visit across the country, blending culture, fashion, architecture and ritual.
On Instagram recently she shared glimpses of the trip with her 20.1 million followers. The visit appears to span several locations and moods. In one set of images, Madonna is seen exploring local markets lined with rows of leather goods stacked floor to ceiling.
Dressed for winter, she wears a long fur coat and matching hat, carrying a large woven tote, blending into the earthy tones and textures of the space.
Another moment highlights Morocco’s famed hospitality, with a traditional mint-tea service captured mid-pour. A server in ceremonial attire pours tea from an ornate silver teapot into colorful glasses, set against an intricately tiled interior.
Architectural details feature prominently throughout her photo series. Several images focus on elaborately decorated interiors, from carved plaster walls and geometric zellige tilework to arched ceilings and mosaic floors.
One wide shot shows a grand seating area lined with patterned cushions beneath an ornate archway, showcasing the craftsmanship and symmetry that define traditional Moroccan design.
A dramatic candlelit dinner scene adds another layer to the journey. Set under tall arches, the long dining table has candelabras, crystal glassware and traditional dishes, while a white horse stands calmly at the far end of the space.
Madonna also shared a close-up portrait taken in soft light, wearing statement sunglasses, diamond earrings and a fur-collared coat, offering another fashion moment within the travel narrative.
In the final images, Madonna is photographed lighting candles inside what appears to be a historic religious or sacred space.
She captioned the post: “Moroccan Holiday.”
The singer also offered fans a look at her festive celebrations, sharing images from a photoshoot with her boyfriend, Akeem Morris, and her 13-year-old twin daughters, Stella and Estere.
Posing in front of a red backdrop decorated with a Christmas tree and disco balls, she wears a white satin mini dress with lace-trimmed short sleeves, square neckline and playful hemline, styled with fishnet tights, gold satin opera gloves and her signature glamour.
