Madonna performs with Sabrina Carpenter at Coachella on Friday, April 17, 2026. Kevin Mazur/Getty Images Madonna‘s victory lap following a buzzy surprise Coachella appearance with Sabrina Carpenter has hit a snag just three days after the show, as the pop superstar shared Monday that the garments she wore during the set are nowhere to be found, and she’s asking anyone with knowledge to help her get them back.
“This full circle moment hit different until I discovered that the vintage pieces that I wore went missing,” the superstar wrote in an Instagram story published on Monday. “My costume that was pulled from my personal archives — jacket, corset, dress and all other garments. These aren’t just clothes, they are part of my history.”

Madonna said Monday that other archived pieces from that same era have gone missing as well, writing that “I’m hoping and praying that some kind soul will find these items,” further encouraging anyone with leads to reach out to her team at [email protected].
The archived pieces in question include a light purple corset as well as a darker purple jacket. “I’m offering a reward for their safe return,” Madonna said. “Thank you with all My Heart.”
Madonna’s surprise appearance with Carpenter was one of the biggest highlights across both weekends of Coachella this year, with the two pop stars performing several songs together including “Vogue,” “Like a Prayer” and Madonna’s “Bring Your Love” from her upcoming Confessions II album.
Madonna expressed her gratitude to Carpenter in her post, starting it by saying “Thank you to Sabrina and everyone who made it possible. Bringing Confessions II back to where it began was such a thrill.”
Madonna’s surprise performance came days after the star had announced Confessions II would release this July. A sequel to her critically lauded 2005 album Confessions On a Dance Floor, it will mark Madonna’s first album since 2019’s Madame X.
As Madonna referenced, this Coachella performance was particularly symbolic given that she performed Confessions on a Dance Floor tracks in America for the first time at Coachella 20 years ago.
“And that was such a thrill for me, so you can imagine what a thrill it is for me to be back 20 years later in the same boots, the same corset, the jacket I had on earlier, the same Gucci jacket,” Madonna told the crowd on Friday night. “So, it’s like a full circle moment, very meaningful for me.”
