As Beyoncé dazzles audiences around the world with her Renaissance World Tour, one of her standout ensembles is a custom Louis Vuitton jumpsuit, crafted by none other than her friend and Louis Vuitton Men’s creative director, Pharrell Williams. In a recent Instagram video, the multitalented artist, aged 50, shared insights into the design process behind the jewel-studded black jumpsuit, which Beyoncé pairs with an oversized silver hat during her performance of “Formation.”
Pharrell Williams begins the video by praising Beyoncé’s rare and powerful spirit, emphasizing the deep connection he shares with her. As he delves into the creation of the custom look, Williams keeps Beyoncé’s body and silhouette at the forefront of his mind. His goal is to create an outfit that not only complements her shape and form but also aligns with her spiritual essence, allowing her to feel free and empowered while performing.

The jumpsuit, designed with the intention of empowering a true and royal spirit, highlights Beyoncé’s dynamic movements on stage. Williams’s attention to detail and thoughtful craftsmanship result in a look that honors Beyoncé’s spirit and allows her to fully express herself during her performances.
In addition to designing Beyoncé’s show-stopping ensemble, Williams extends his creativity to custom coordinating looks for Beyoncé’s 11-year-old daughter, Blue Ivy Carter, who occasionally joins her mother on stage, as well as for her backup dancers. This dedication to creating a cohesive and visually striking stage presence demonstrates Williams’s commitment to elevating the entire production.
Pharrell Williams took on the role of creative director for Louis Vuitton in February, following the passing of designer Virgil Abloh two years earlier. His first runway show in June focused on camouflage-inspired prints, drawing praise from a star-studded front row, including Beyoncé and her husband JAY-Z, Jared Leto, Kim Kardashian, Rihanna, and A$AP Rocky.
Meanwhile, Beyoncé’s Renaissance World Tour continues to captivate audiences with her awe-inspiring looks. Notably, Tiffany & Co. is the official jeweler of the tour, and Beyoncé recently debuted a specialty diamond-encrusted in-ear monitor, adorned with 4.5 carats of diamonds. Furthermore, the singer made a powerful statement on Juneteenth by exclusively wearing outfits from Black designers, including her own Ivy Park fashion label.
As the tour unfolds, Beyoncé’s remarkable style and performances, combined with Pharrell Williams’s creative vision, promise to leave an indelible mark on the world of fashion and entertainment.
