‘Pretty on fleek’ isn’t just a lyric for Beyoncé Knowles-Carter, it’s a daily embodiment for the Queen Bey and mother of three.
Whether it’s Beychella in the Palm Springs desert or the 100thanniversary celebrating Nelson Mandela’s legacy in South Africa, when Mrs. Carter she slays a stage, it’s ‘Flawless.’
Over the weekend, while the world was watching the annual Victoria’s Secret fashion show, citizens of South Africa were treated to a special OTR II concert by none other than Bey and hubby Jay Z, as part of their Global Citizen Festival– Mandela 100 show.
With her return to the stage, the superstar diva gave us with multiple fashion looks that rivaled her already-stunning costumes from this year’s OTR II tour. Reflecting on one of Beyonce’s earlier visits to the continent, her mother Tina Knowles-Lawson designed a special dress for the occasion.
“I had 45 minutes to put this dress together,” Knowles-Lawson said of the dress. “It was nothing but God.”
Among this weekend’s array of outfits were an embellished, floral-print bodysuit that represented 54 African countries, a sleeveless mini-dress that incorporated thousands of African handbeads, and a feather-sleeved, hieroglyphic-print top paired with hot-shorts designed by Balmain’s Olivier Rousteing—a piece which Mama Tina describes as a, “Balmain masterpiece.”
