Last night, Beyoncé graced New York’s fashion scene with her presence in a surprise visit to Bushwick, Brooklyn for Luar’s Fall/Winter 2024 runway show. Imagine sitting next to the editors, writers, and content creators you’ve been seeing for five days straight in a Bushwick warehouse with dim lighting and rumors buzzing around Queen Bey’s arrival. With everyone’s eyes fixated on each exit to see who is going to walk in and several attendees unable to stay seated, the growing anticipation was confirmation something out of this world was about to take place. The Grammy-award winning singer walked into the venue and basically broke the internet for New York’s fashion scene.
Accompanied by her mother Tina Knowles and sister Solange, Beyoncé wore a metallic silver full look from Gaurav Gupta’s latest collection with an iridescent version of Luar’s Ana bag. Continuing to lean into her yeehaw aesthetic, she wore a beige cowboy hat to top off the look. In addition to accessorizing with a cowboy hat, she was draped in a bedazzled balaclava that sent crystals down her chest. With this being her fourth cowboy hat moment within the month, the singer is clearly sending us the message to channel our inner cowboy and continue wearing silver for 2024.
While her bedazzled knee high boots and matching blazer captivated the crowd, she was attending the show in support of her nephew, Daniel “Julez” J. Smith Jr., for his runway model debut. Smith was the second look in the show, wearing a leather suit with a double breasted closure, exaggerated shoulder pads, and fur cuffs for an added touch of drama. While smith’s debut was a success, designer Raul Lopez was also surprised to see Queen Bey sitting front row at his show sharing with various publications backstage, “I didn’t even know. I didn’t know. I just found out.”
