Singer Lorde flaunts her midriff in a racy purple co-ord at Parklife Festival in Manchester

Lorde looked every inch the quirky pop star when she hit the stage at Manchester’s Parklife Festival on Saturday. 

The 21-year-old New Zealand-born star sported a racy midriff baring co-ord ensemble with sheer detailing as she belted out her catchy tunes on stage. 

The unusual outfit flaunted the singer’s cleavage and midriff, while the ornate sheer detailing gave fans a glimpse at her bare pins.

She completed her look with purple eye-shadow and opted to wear her raven hair down and in a straightened style. 

The singer, whose real name is Ella Marija Lani Yelich-O’Connor, looked in high spirits during the performance. 

At times, she busted out quirky dance moves as she performed a number of her classic hits like Royal and Tennis Court.

At other times, the singer got chatty with the ramped-up crowd, getting down on one knee while on the stage.  

Enjoying a mild 22 degree day, the much admired singer performed alongside other acts such as N.E.R.D, Jessie Ware, A$AP and Chvrches. 

It’s been a big week on the festival circuit for Lorde, with the hit-maker performing at Primavera Sounds Festival in Portugal earlier this week.

During the captivating 15-song set, Lorde cheerfully engaged with the Portuguese crowd and invited dancers fill the stage.

She told the crowd: ‘I like to think that you have heard me for some time and have been keeping all these intense and complicated emotions so that we can dance them today.’  

It comes just months after Lorde was the only woman nominated for the Album of the Year category at the Grammys.

Lorde will return to Australia in July to perform at Splendour in the Grass.
