Beyoncé’s one of the stars we always watch out for during award season. Aside from her notable career and personal accomplishments, the singer has a fierce presence that can be felt whenever she arrives on the scene. Over time, as Beyoncé has cemented her status as one of the IT women in Hollywood, her style has evolved.
While her look will always bear a hint of sexiness(namely, a plunging neckline here and there), Beyoncé has used fashion to make more than just a glamorous statement. The star’s ensembles have come to express deeper meaning, like her 2018 Grammys look, which was inspired by the Black Panther movement. The award show has become a place for her to experiment with self-expression by rocking special pieces, and they’ve all been truly unforgettable. Read on to see her past red carpet outfits at the Grammy Awards.
