Ciara unveils timeless 'Jackie' album artwork, announces spring tour

Ciara has been spending more and more time in the world of high fashion—check out her Instagram for pics with her Givenchy designer pal Riccardo Tisci)—and in the gorgeously understated artwork for her latest album cover, it shows.

On Instagram today, the “1, 2 Step” singer unveiled the cover art for Jackie, her sixth studio album, which shows the beauty lounging topless in distressed Levis. Vogue Italia editor-in-chief Franca Sozzani was the shoot’s creative director, and Francesco Carrozzini photographed it. Ciara worked with Sozzani and Carrozzini for Vogue Italia‘s February issue.

Her upcoming tour, which kicks off May 3, will be the singer’s first in six years. Check out the tour dates and the video for Jackie‘s first single “I Bet” below.
