I'd like to start off by saying I've never seen such fierce mannequins in my life! Roostein and The Blonds are perfection together pairing their almost life like mannequins with Phillipe Blond's exquisite and iconic fashion ensembles. It was truly beautiful and amazing to be able to be so close to the designs and actually take in and notice all the details and admire the time and effort that was made for each look. As you may have notice in all her glory below, mannequin Queen Bey was there (Beyoncé)! Thanks MAO PR for including me in such a wonderful night filled with fashion and champagne, I couldn't ask for more...

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.”
