On May 7th in Malmö, the 68th Eurovision Song Contest kicked off with its first semi-final. Tuesday evening's showcase featured 16 performers from countries including Portugal, Finland, Ukraine, and Poland. It wasn't just their vocal talents that captivated the audience; the artists' outfits also turned heads, with the Slovenian singer choosing a "nude" jumpsuit for her appearance.
The highlight of the first semi-final was Slovenian vocalist Raiven, also known as Sara Briški Cirman. She is a multifaceted talent, embodying roles as a singer, songwriter, actress, model, and harpist. The 28-year-old's Eurovision performance of her song "Veronika" was noteworthy because of her memorable outfit.
The Slovenian star's ensemble featured silver adornments over the chest and similarly designed panties, embracing the bold trend of sheer garments. Under the stage lights, the outfit dazzled, creating an unforgettable "wow" moment.
Complementing her daring attire, Raiven opted for standout makeup featuring silver shimmering eyeshadow and subtle lip gloss. This year's Eurovision showcases a significant focus on expressive gestures, amplified by artists' long, impeccably manicured nails. True to trend, Raiven's nails were painted in a silver-milky hue.
Delving into Raiven's Eurovision journey
Raiven's Eurovision story extends beyond just this Tuesday's performance. She unsuccessfully participated in her national qualifiers twice and made her Eurovision debut in 2019 in Tel Aviv. At the 64th Eurovision Song Contest, her electropop track "Kaos" earned her a second-place finish. The classically trained vocalist has released one studio album, "Magenta", which premiered in 2017.
