Here's a challenge: find a woman in the UK who doesn't absolutely idolise Beyonce?
Yeah, we thought not.
A few days ago this amazing behind-the-scenes footage emerged of Beyonce's tour wardrobe, and unsurprisingly the clothes are as beautiful as the woman herself.
Stage outfits are known for breaking conventional fashion boundaries, due to their "showgirl" quality and glamorous nature. However, add to this that they are worn by one of the world's most famous performers - who is known for her vigorous, fast-paced choreography - and suddenly things are a lot more technical. Beyonce's stylists had so many factors to consider: they needed outfits that were inkeeping with her tour songs, well-made so as not to fall apart during a hip thrust, not too restrictive for Bey to wiggle around in, and on top of all this keeping up her overtly sexual and glamorous aura. Mission impossible, right?
Somehow, it's been achieved. And with pieces designed by Versace no less (but what else could you expect for Queen B?!)
The materials and textiles used are as extravagant as their wearer. From jewel encrusted to suede fringed to leather panels to diamond embellished to metal buckles and straps. The artistry and dedication from the team behind the wardrobe is astonishing - it took 300 hours to make that beautiful Versace dress! However, STITCH's favourite look has to go to that beautiful sparkly polka dot jumpsuit. It's got movement, versatility, and incredible sparkly dots that glitter perfectly as Bey flies across the stage, and matching sparkly heels to boot. An outfit fit for a Queen indeed...
And that's why we've decided to award her tour wardrobe with the coveted #WCW (Wardrobe Crush Wednesday) crown.
