In honor of Juneteenth yesterday Beyoncé wore outfits that were solely created by black designers during her renaissance tour.
“In honor of Juneteenth, everything I wore for RENAISSANCE WORLD TOUR tonight was created exclusively by Black designers,” the ‘Break My Soul’ singer wrote on Instagram after her second of two back-to-back shows in the Netherlands capital city.
In the post, Beyoncé shared a few slides with the outfits she wore and tagged the people who were behind the fits. Oliver Rousteing praised the singer on Instagram after she wore full body snakeskin piece that was designed by him. “In the industry where we have to all fight, I want to thank you [for your] support last night all the black designers that had created their own space in this tough industry. This was THE CELEBRATION.”
Rousteing continued, “The Renaissance world tour is about freedom, expression, and LOVE. Your support, your vision and your strength to not create an evolution but making a REVOLUTION, will and is, part of the History. Thank you for reminding us that fights are not over and let’s keep pushing for a better world for the next generations.”
In her latest post she also pointed out while wearing clothes created by black designers she also included her own ivy park collection into the mix. “I started designing this collection over a year ago,” she wrote in the caption. “I was so engulfed in all things RENAISSANCE and was inspired by Studio 54, Bob Mackie and the disco era.”
She continued, “I wanted to do a modern twist using the signature IVY PARK neon and bring disco to the beach in this swim collection. I’m so happy to share this with you and even more proud to launch it for the first time on the RENAISSANCE WORLD TOUR.”
“I’m proud to be among the very talented Black designers featured in last night’s show to celebrate Juneteenth,” she concluded.
