The 2nd annual Wearable Art Gala took place on Saturday (March 17) in Los Angeles, California, but Beyonce Knowles has only just released the images of her custom piece by luxury Indian design house Falguni Shane Peacock.

As the singer was honoured with the humanitarian award at the event, she was expected to make an impact. And that she did just that in this sheer, gold embellishment gown which furled into a dramatic train.

While some might be retrieving their eye balls from the back of their head at the predictability of the sheerness and body-con construction, this was a jaw-dropper for me. I particluary liked how the metallic cutouts on the sheer gold dress are strategically placed to mimic the shape of an armour.

I adore the ‘Nubian Warrior Queen’ vibe. It was bang on theme, especially with those Jean Paul Gaultier couture earrings, plus she looked breath-taking.

Blue Ivy also got into the golden girl action with her tiny gold dress with poofy skirt with a matching gold wig.

JAY-Z kinda let the side down in this dark suit.
