Beyonce has quite a crazy outfit as part of her costumes on her “Mrs. Carter Show” tour, and it took a LOT of time and energy to make it. Get the 411 below!
The designers The Blonds say:
We proposed several different options and this was the one that won. Beyonce exudes confidence, glamour and sensuality, so, we created something that would express all of those things in every way. Our original inspiration came from Tamara de Lempicka’s paintings of the female body.
To start, Phillipe hand painted the suit on Beyonce to achieve the correct shading. The piece was then hand embroidered with approximately 30,000 Swarovski crystals that took over 600 hours to apply. It was a close collaboration with Beyonce, Tina Knowles and her stylist, Ty Hunter, to finish what would become one of the most glamorous and provocative looks she’s ever worn.
