Description

Prince makes wardrobe changes for his 1990 Nude Tour

Handwritten list in pencil of wardrobe changes from the 1990 Nude World Tour, written entirely in Prince's hand, who signs within the text, "Prince," on a lightly lined 8 x 10.5 sheet of notebook paper. Addressed to his costume designer Helen Hiatt, the list reads, in full: "Helen: The Dancers: Tony, Damon & Kirk should have 4 changes: 1. Normal starting outfits, 2. Black P. j's (change during Purple Rain), 3. White P. J.'s (change during Dr. Feelgood), 4. English Eccentrics (change during Nothing Compares). Prince Changes: 1. Normal starting outfit, 2. (2 be announced), 3. White P. j.'s (change during Dr. Feelgood), 4. Rolling Stone vibe from last gig (change after Nothing Compares 2 U)." In fine condition, with intersecting folds and scattered creasing. The Nude Tour was a greatest-hits concert tour that ran from June to September 1990, and played shows in Japan and Europe exclusively. The tour's incredible 21 stops in England likely inspired Prince to add a certain "Rolling Stone vibe" to his wardrobe. From the collection of costume designer Helen Hiatt and accompanied by a letter of provenance.
