Style & Beauty: The Blonds Dress Beyonce For Her Mrs. Carter Tour

Phillipe and David Blond, the designer duo behind The Blonds are proud to announce that Beyonce will be wearing a custom made outfit for her Mrs. Carter tour.  The Blonds have dressed Beyonce in the past various times, including her Upgrade music video, promo shots for her album 4 packaging and various performances throughout the past 5 years.

 David Blond: “Beyonce exudes confidence, glamour and sensuality, so we created something that would express those things in every way. A couture look that would not only be stunning, but also reflect her personality and the music from this segment of the Mrs. Carter Tour.”

Phillipe Blond: “Our original inspiration came from Tamara de Lempicka's paintings of the female body.  It is also meant to give the illusion of being covered in crystallized honey.

David Blond:  “To start, Phillipe hand-painted the suit on Beyonce to achieve the correct shading.  Then the piece was hand embroidered with approximately 30,000 Swarovski crystals that took over 600 hours to apply.”

Phillipe Blond:  “It was a close collaboration with Beyonce, Tina Knowles and Ty Hunter to finish what would become one of the most glamorous and provocative looks that she's ever worn.”
