She breaks rules with her fashion and shatters glass ceilings with her music — and throughout
her 2017 pregnancy, Beyonce made some truly jaw-dropping style statements.
Combining elements from '70s glam, to Y2K grunge, preggo Bey stood out on the world
stage of art, fashion, and style.
Here are a few of her raddest pregnancy looks!
The big reveal
On February first, 2017, Beyonce broke Instagram, announcing her pregnancy, and showing her
budding twin bump in satiny, jewel-toned lingerie, all of the hair, and a vintage-style veil.
The Lemonade star captioned the image, writing, "We would like to share our love and happiness.
We have been blessed two times over.
We are incredibly grateful that our family will be growing by two, and we thank you for
your well wishes.
— The Carters."
Her words spelled joy and happiness, but her bold stance and demure expression showed her
strength.
And would you expect anything less?
Fly girl
Just six weeks after her announcement, Bey showed off her twin-tummy in this striking,
monochrome, '90s-esque outfit, carrying a studded Gucci handbag.
Bey sure proves that pregnancy duds can be totally badass and sexy.
According to Harper's Bazaar, Beyonce put this outfit together to attend her stepfather
Richard Lawson's 70th birthday.
But we’d party with her in this outfit anytime!
Spring fling
In a more traditionally soft, feminine look, Beyonce stepped out right before the first
day of spring in a long, luscious, cream dress, under a full length, popped-collar trench
coat — in a shade Glamour UK referred to as, quote, "dusty pink.”
To be pregnant with twins and still rock those heels...you’ve gotta be bold!
Trophy queen
The 2017 Grammy Awards might as well have been called "The Beyoncé Awards," as noted
by Refinery29: Queen B performed at the event, and was nominated in nine categories.
For her onstage performance of, "Love Drought" and "Sandcastles," the golden goddess stunned
in a dress by Peter Dundas.
The dress even featured a gold-sequin portrait of Bey’s face, symbolizing the mother's
desire to watch over her future twins.
Dundas told Vogue, "The dress took…50 people working on it constantly [to embroider].
It mixed Gustav Klimt influence, Art Deco motifs...and lyrics from Beyonce's song 'Love
Drought.'
Sun rays symbolize the African goddess Oshun."
He continued, saying, "It was a fun way to celebrate the moment for her."
We know those twins are feeling the couture love!
Queen of our hearts
Although Bey skipped the Grammys red carpet, when you're nominated in nine categories,
you'd better show up with your style game on-point.
Of course, the queen did not disappoint.
After her performance, Bey changed into another Peter Dundas gown, this time, a long, red,
sequined bodycon dress with a luxuriously classic "old Hollywood" feel.
Hand-fulls of Grammys shows just who runs the world.
And don’t even get us started on that after-party glam!
Family time
Beyoncé and her OG mini-me, daughter Blue Ivy, posed together in special white Easter
dresses and matching braids.
Bey's gown perfectly hugs her bump, billowing into a loose, '70s bohemian style neckline
and sleeve.
As Romper noted, this photo marks the last year Blue Ivy will celebrate Easter as the
only child, so it looks like Beyoncé went the distance to make sure she had fun.
Scarlet queen
In a look by Michael Costello, Bey’s powerful stance and slightly mischievous smize say,
"I'm carrying the future and I know it."
Bey shared the stunning picture on her website and Instagram, in April, with the caption,
"Inaugural Wearable Art Gala in support of WACO Theater Center."
InStyle reported that the event was hosted by Tina Lawson, mom to Beyoncé, and of course,
her sister Solange, at the California African American Museum in Los Angeles.
Jewelry by Lorraine Schwartz bedecked the singer's ears, but what really charmed fans
was her towering "ornamental floral headpiece" by the Leticia M Studio — on trend for Coachella
season!
Whip it, girl
Queen Bey's signature hair whip may take center stage in her Instagram photo shoot from early
May (Seriously, how could "Becky" have better hair than her?), but her belly is the understated
star of her edgy, nearly all-black outfit, which showcases and celebrates her bump.
In what Allure reports is a Gucci blazer, and matching Gucci brocade handbag, the singer
unapologetically adorned herself with pieces from the Spring/Summer 2017 menswear collection.
People reported that Bey was seen wearing the outfit on a date with hubby, Jay Z, courtside
at a Clippers game.
She shoots, she scores!
Low key mama
In a bit of a departure from her recent string of high-fashion maternity looks, Beyoncé
shared a streetwear look that seemed to be inspired by late '80s, early '90s style.
InStyle reported that her cheeky top, was just $23 from ASOS.
While Blue Ivy's mom is clearly capable of serving up high fashion maternity fierceness,
she hasn’t lost her sense of humor.
Pretty in pink
Bey has certainly been all about the Gucci during her pregnancy this spring.
In an outfit-of-the-day image she shared on May 7, the award-winning performer rocked
three new Gucci pieces.
Stealherstyle pegged her Heritage Flower Bow Jacquard Jacket, the Oversized Square-Frame
Sunglasses, and the Embroidered Bird Earrings — all by the Italian designer.
She paired all that Gucci with Topshop denim, a Dior bag, and Saint Laurent blush sandals.
And no, our Queen isn’t above a little wear-and-repeat...
Double-take
Even Beyonce repeats a dress sometimes!
The cute "cutout LBD" Bey wore in a May 9 post seems to be the exact match from her
March 14 post — only this time, her tummy fills out the dress for an even more striking
look.
To top off all that ‘70s glam, Bey served up even more Gucci style, with a black velvet
and chain handbag.
Clearly her pregnancy didn't make Bey even think about toning down her high-fashion looks,
and we loved it!!
