Beyoncé’s 3 epic Renaissance looks from Indian fashion designer Gaurav Gupta: the singer stunned at her world tour in sari gowns and bodysuits that took the haute couturier 1,500 hours to make

Gaurav Gupta is a celebrated haute couture designer who hails from India, and his designs are loved by celebrities and ultra-wealthy clientele on a global scale. The designs, a mix of custom and haute-couture runway pieces, have been featured in three of Beyoncé’s US tour shows.

Gupta spoke with us about how these looks, which took hundreds of hours to create, came together for the Renaissance tour.

1. Infinity Crystal bodysuit in North Carolina

“The outfit took about 538 hours to make from start to finish. There was complete freedom given to us. We sent sketches for Beyoncé; out of them, a few were selected; we made them and sent them to Paris where a body double had fitted them,” Gupta told us of the first of their looks worn by Beyoncé on August 9.

2. Athena sari gown in Atlanta, Georgia

The second look for the Atlanta opening number on August 11 was a proud moment for Indians all around the world.

“This placement marks a significant relevance of cultural appreciation of India’s traditional design,” Bose said in the statement to us.

The neon green Athena sari gown was actually first seen at Gupta’s Paris Couture Week runway show in July, Gupta said.

“After the stylist selected them off the runway, we made those pieces in Beyoncé’s size and shipped them to LA for fittings, and then they took a call for when she should wear it during the tour … the outfit took around 320 hours to make,” Gupta told us. “It was so heartwarming to see her wear the sari gown, especially for her opening look.”

The sari has a long history in India and wider South Asian traditional wear. “I have always been fascinated and enamoured by the history of the sari and the more than 600 different ways it is traditionally draped,” Gupta said.

3. Moondust Crystal Encrusted Orbit gown in Atlanta, Georgia

The third look of Gupta’s that the “Halo” singer wore coincidentally fell on India’s Independence Day, August 15. Gupta told us it took over 700 hours to make: “It is hand sewn with over 20,000 crystals, 40,000 sequins and multitudes of glass bugle beads.”

This piece, called the Moondust Crystal Encrusted Orbit gown, was picked off of the Paris runway, like the Atlanta opening night outfit, he added.

“To wake up to such glorious visuals, on the day of Indian Independence Day, is another example of how Mrs. Carter and her team continue to be expanders for others,” Bose said.
