Whether onstage or off, Madonna is dressed to kill – and now she's getting a little help from clothing retailer H&M, which has struck a deal to outfit the singer and her touring troupe with its 2006 line.

In a statement, Madonna said the partnership with H&M is "like a perfect fit," the Associated Press reports. "The dancers and I are excited to go shopping together."

All members of her "Confession Tour" – including the band, dancers and crew – will wear H&M designs.

The clothier said it was looking forward to seeing what the members of Madonna’s team did with its styles.

"Aside from being great fans of Madonna's music and fashion sense, we admire her ability to always be ahead of the trends in everything she does,” an H&M spokesperson said on Thursday.

As part of the cross-promotion, H&M will be selling a specially designed Madonna tracksuit, due to hit stores in August. She and her singers will also appear in ad for the company.

Madonna's worldwide "Confessions Tour" opened May 21 and runs through Sept. 3.
