- Madonna has made a public plea for the "safe return" of her vintage costumes worn on stage at Coachella.

- The superstar appeared alongside Sabrina Carpenter to perform classic hits alongside a new song set to appear on her album *Confessions II*.**

- "They are part of my history," Madonna said of the garments in a statement.

Madonna has called for the "safe return" of her material, girl.

Days after taking the Coachella stage alongside weekend headliner Sabrina Carpenter, the pop icon implored fans to help her track down several items from her personal fashion archive, which she said "went missing" following the headline-making moment when she shared the spotlight with Carpenter at the California music festival.

"Still flying high since Friday night at Coachella. Thank you to Sabrina and everyone who made it possible," Madonna wrote Monday on Instagram, adding that "Bringing *Confessions II *back to where it began was such a thrill," in a nod to the music event where she launched the upcoming album's predecessor, *Confessions on a Dance Floor*, in 2005.

"This full circle moment hit different until I discovered that the vintage pieces that I wore went missing- my costume that was pulled from my personal archives- jacket, corset, dress, and all other garments," Madonna continued. "These aren't just clothes, they are part of my history."

Her impassioned message continued, outlining that "other archival items from the same era went missing as well."

Madonna wrote that she's "hoping and praying that some kind soul" will "find these items and reach out to my team," and provided an email address, infomaverick2026@gmail.com, for anyone with information to reach out to.

"I'm offering a reward for their safe return," she finished. "Thank you with all My Heart."

During the set, Madonna pointed out that the clothes she wore were the original pieces she wore to the festival in 2005, where she performed a history-making set promoting *Confessions on a Dance Floor *inside the festival's Dance Tent space.

In an Instagram grid post, Madonna shared a photo of herself hugging Carpenter, writing that the set "was such a thrill" and "a moment in history" she "will never forget."
