For over two decades, Beyoncé has been a staple in both the music and fashion industry. Not only does she continually break records with her empowering, catchy music, but she always arrives in style, fully embracing her confident spirit and curves.
Beyoncé has said in the past, specifically to Vogue UK, that “fashion was a place of escape” for her, especially during quarantine, when she and her kids would do “Fashion Fridays.” Great style, she’s explained, is fluid and doesn’t fit into one box. “You can be both elegant and a provocateur,” she told Harper’s Bazaar. “You can be curvy and still be a fashion icon. I wish this freedom for every person.”
On Feb 1, Beyoncé announced that she will be going on her first world tour in seven years, ahead of her history-making performance and appearance at the 2023 Grammys. Now we know 2023 is going to be all about Beyoncé, and we can hardly wait. To celebrate all of this, let’s take a look back at her boldest, most fabulous fashion moments from her Grammy appearances over the years.
