Mariah Carey and her heavy dress!

Mariah Carey wore a stunning gold Dolce & Gabbana dress for her Apple TV+ holiday special. 

She is an American singer, songwriter, actress, and record producer. Carey achieved worldwide success with follow-up albums Music Box (1993), Merry Christmas (1994), and Daydream (1995). These albums had some of her most successful singles, including "Hero", "Without You", "All I Want for Christmas Is You" and others.

She looked stunning in the gold gown she wore. There was the other kind of a problem, the dress was far from comfortable.

Carey appears in Mariah's Christmas: The magic continues,". The premiere is on Friday, in a floor-length Dolce & Gabbana dress with a plunging neckline, thigh-high slit, and train.

Speaking to Vogue's Christian Allaire, Carey said the dress weighed 27 kilograms and took 250 hours to bead.

"The beading is not your average beading. The stones themselves were gigantic, but they still looked beautiful and shined," she told for Vogue. "It was magnificent, but it hurt like a mother to wear it."

Carey added that she had six men carry the train just so that she could walk to the stage for her performance. 

"Everybody was like, 'Oh, she's exaggerating,' until they held it for two seconds," she told for Vogue.

The challenge also was to sing in such a dress.

"When something's super tight in the middle area, it's hard because you have to get your breath and sing," she said. "But I'm used to that."

For the holiday special, the singer and her stylist DiAndre Tristan wanted her outfit to be glamour and perfection. So, they achieved it.

"It went with the backdrop of New York and the Chrysler Building. It has a bronze, gold, copper feel that's very festive, but not in your face," the singer told Vogue. "I live for all the traditional Christmas colors — the reds, greens, whites, and silvers — but this was different."
