Beyoncé‘s “Cowboy Carter” styling streak continues.
On Tuesday, the superstar songstress shared a new post on Instagram, wearing a dark-wash denim skirt suit from Alexander McQueen‘s spring 2024 collection. Featuring a corseted waist, lace-up details and a micromini hemline, Beyoncé accessorized with oversize aviators and a black cowboy hat.
Tooled leather Givenchy Shark Lock boots and a blue leather “Jolene” purse by Ozias completed Beyoncé’s Western-inspired ensemble.
“We made it,” designer Marc Ozias wrote on Instagram. “I told my mom a very long time ago that Beyoncé would wear my bag. Please never give up on your dreams.”
The pop star wore her blond tresses in bouncy curls, while her makeup consisted of a bold red lip and shimmery champagne eye shadow.
Beyoncé’s handbag references her cover of Dolly Parton’s “Jolene,” which appears on “Cowboy Carter.” Parton also lent her voice to an interlude titled “Dolly P” and is featured on “Tyrant.”
Beyoncé’s latest album marks her first full-length foray into country music.
“This album has been over five years in the making,” Beyoncé wrote on Instagram last month. “It was born out of an experience that I had years ago where I did not feel welcomed…and it was very clear that I wasn’t. But, because of that experience, I did a deeper dive into the history of country music and studied our rich musical archive.”

Beyoncé’s statement seemingly referenced her appearance at the 2016 Country Music Awards, where she performed what was then her only country song, “Daddy Lessons,” alongside The Chicks. Before the show aired, some country fans called for a boycott of the CMAs on social media, and afterward, the CMA’s website neglected to mention Beyoncé’s performance at the ceremony.
Beyoncé began incorporating Western wear into her wardrobe with the release of her 2022 album, “Renaissance.” In promotional images for her recent world tour, the pop star sported a mirrored cowboy hat akin to a disco ball. Meanwhile, at the 2024 Grammys, Beyoncé accessorized her Louis Vuitton skirt suit with a Stetson chapeau.
