If Your Life Motto Is "Be More Beyoncé," Follow Her 13 Go-To Style Moves
Anyone who loves Beyoncé will be familiar with her art-directed outfit pictures on Instagram, where she creates mood boards, flashing videos, and collages of her latest looks. Beyoncé is hugely private and rarely photographed anywhere except the red carpet or on stage, so her Instagram gives us an insight into what she wears when she isn't in performance mode or spectacular Givenchy by Riccardo Tisci Met Gala gowns. In 2016, Beyoncé launched her own athleisure label, Ivy Park, and on Instagram, you're as likely to see her wearing ripped jeans and a hoodie as you are a ruffled Dolce & Gabbana gown. Keep scrolling to see 13 of Beyoncé's go-to style moves.
Style Notes: Beyoncé is just one of many celebrities to love streetwear brand Off-White, but she shows that athleisure can be sexy, wearing a fitted body-con skirt with a cropped hoodie.
Style Notes: When it comes to accessories, Beyoncé's approach is often more is more—here she wears blue lipstick, oversized sunglasses, one statement earring, an anklet and a round straw bag.
Style Notes: Beyoncé often works with a colour palette, such as here, where she blends muted neutrals.
Style Notes: Anyone who has seen her yellow Cavalli gown in the "Hold Up" video will know that Beyoncé loves ruffled maxi dresses.
Style Notes: Beyoncé (and her daughter Blue Ivy) are big fans of Gucci—and here she wears a rose-embroidered black velvet Marmont bag with "Loved" in capital letters.
Style Notes: During her second pregnancy, Beyoncé wore a "preggers" slogan tee from ASOS, and unsurprisingly, it sold out in mere hours.
Style Notes: Here Beyoncé wears Elle Woods–level pink, in her Gucci metallic skirt and sugary pink leather jacket. She's also into the return of retro designer logos, such as this Gucci cap.
Style Notes: At the 2016 MTV VMAs, Beyoncé showed her support for under-the-radar designers by wearing a sequined blue gown by Mischka Aoki, complete with feathered wings.
Style Notes: There's no way to make a statement like wearing prints head to toe.
Style Notes: At the 2016 Met Gala, Beyoncé wore a latex nude gown by Givenchy by Riccardo Tisci, covered in pearl and floral embellishments.
Style Notes: Here Beyoncé shows that sometimes nothing beats a figure-hugging dress.
Style Notes: Beyoncé certainly has fun with fashion, such as here, where she wore a sequined red Chicago Bulls jersey with a leather miniskirt. The diva spin on athleisure.
Style Notes: Beyoncé is the queen of the Met Gala, and in 2015, she wore a sheer gown with carefully placed floral sequins by Givenchy by Riccardo Tisci. This might well be the most celebrated naked dress of all time.
