Beyoncé was fashionably late to the 2023 Grammys, but her statuesque look more than made up for lost time. The living legend and winningest woman in Grammy history donned a silver-and-gold Gucci corset gown with a sweetheart neckline and a high-ruffled slit for the occasion. For added glamour, she finished the metallic look with slinky leather opera gloves and jewelry from Lorraine Schwartz.
Moments after arriving, host Trevor Noah presented her with the Grammy she won for best R&B song while she was stuck in traffic. “I’m surprised that traffic could stop you,” Noah joked as he handed the award to Knowles. “I thought you traveled through space and time.”
This year’s Grammys are shaping up to be a particularly meaningful night for Queen Bey. The songstress is nominated in a whopping nine categories, and in three of those categories—including best R&B song for “Cuff It”—she’s already won. Currently clocking in at 31 wins, Beyoncé is tied for most Grammy awards with classical music figure Georg Solti, but she could surpass him by the end of the night.
