Beyoncé saved her sexiest dress for the second annual Wearable Art Gala [1]. The Lemonade singer showed up for the gala, which was organized by Bey's mom, Tina Knowles, wearing a gold dress [2] that fit perfectly with the evening's theme of WACO to Wakanda. (That's the name of the organization behind the gala plus the fictional world in which Black Panther [3] takes place.)
According to WWD [4], Beyoncé chose a custom gown by Indian design house Falguni Shane Peacock [5] that took more than 10 days to create. "We wanted to create an art statement, taking inspiration from the Nubian warrior queen [Amanishakheto]. We felt it was the perfect inspiration when designing for such a strong woman like Beyoncé," designers Falguni and Shane Peacock said. Her stunning dress [6] featured metallic cutouts and a long gold train.
Bey's daughter, Blue Ivy, also made an appearance and totally upstaged her mother wearing a matching gold dress and wig [7]. During the evening, Beyoncé switched into a second gold dress while taking the stage to receive the 2018 WACO Theater Humanitarian Award. Read on to get a glimpse of Bey's amazing dresses.
