First it was Hailey Bieber, then Kim Kardashian, and now Queen Bey: It seems you can’t bat an eye these days without one style icon or another flaunting butter yellow, the uncontested shade of the season. On Tuesday night in New York City, Beyoncé leaned into the trend in Sergio Hudson separates at Glamour’s 2024 Women of the Year Awards, where the Cowboy Carter singer was in attendance to see her mother—a.k.a. Miss Tina Knowles—accept a group award alongside Selena Gomez, Billie Eilish, and Travis Kelce’s mothers for “raising this generation’s superstars.”
As Miss Tina took the stage, telling the crowd at the Times Square Edition hotel that of all her life’s achievements and responsibilities, “the best job that I’ve ever had is being a mother,” Beyoncé could be seen sweetly looking on, visibly moved. (Beyoncé is, of course, a doting parent in her own right, sharing three children—12-year-old Blue Ivy and seven-year-old twins Rumi and Sir—with husband Jay-Z.) While there’s really no look Beyoncé can’t pull off, the flipped-up, blonde-bombshell coif and pastel shade she sported on Tuesday night felt pointedly, playfully feminine, perfectly suited to the night’s mission of honoring the power of mothers everywhere.
