14 DAY TRIAL // Beyonce was one of the most spectacular appearances on the red carpet and on the stage at the 2014 Grammy Awards, which took place on Sunday at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, and aired live on CBS. Literally dripping in diamonds also helped her look this amazing.
For her live performance, a duet with husband Jay Z which opened the festivities, Beyonce wore a Nichole de Carle lace bodysuit with Stuart Weitzman shoes, Saint Laurent crystal tights, a custom bra, and a La Perla collar.
She didn’t wear diamonds but, considering that she had about $10 million (€7.3 million) worth of them on the red carpet and during the awards show, she didn’t need to overdo it.
Us Weekly reports that Beyonce accessorized her gorgeous see-through dress by Michael Costello with jewelry from her good friend and frequent collaborator Lorraine Schwartz, who also designed the engagement rings of some of the most famous stars out there.
“Among the pieces that made Beyonce a Grammy style star: Jaw-dropping chandelier earrings and statement cocktail rings worn on each finger of her right hand, including a ruby stone on her pinky finger that perfectly matched her manicure. Bey also added a diamond-shaped cocktail ring on her left hand to go along with her massive 18-carat engagement ring from Jay-Z, also designed by Schwartz,” the publication says.
The cost of all these pieces was in the vicinity of $10 million (€7.3 million), the e-zine says. We assume the engagement ring, which she owns, was not factored in, but just the items she had on loan for the big night.
To prove that they’re good friends, Schwartz posted a photo of herself and Beyonce dripping in ice on her Instagram, with the caption, “My muse, my friend, my bling queen – my true gem” and hashtags like “my friend,” “family,” “the one and only,” “superstar,” “beyond talented,” “love her,” and “my bling queen.”
Clearly, Schwartz loves Beyonce.
