During her Renaissanceworld tour (which has been described as a "once-in-a-lifetime" experience), Beyoncé decided to shine a spotlight on Black designers to honor Juneteenth, the federal holiday which commemorates of the true end of slavery in the United States.
At her Amsterdam show at the Johan Cruijff Arena on Sunday, the eve of Juneteenth, Beyoncé wore exclusively Black designers in celebration — including stunning new designs from her own Ivy Park collection.

The looks were largely custom and commissioned, like the silver, shattered glass catsuit designed by Smith.

Fitting the immaculate dancefloor energy of the artist's latest Grammy-winning album, a sequined, neon-pink custom look, she said, was inspired by Studio 54, legendary American designer Bob Mackie, and the 1970s disco era in America.
