Beyoncé’s color-changing ‘Renaissance’ tour outfit revealed
Let there Bey light.
This week, Beyoncé kicked off her Renaissance world tour in Stockholm and fans went wild for her multiple costume changes throughout the 37-song set.
Perhaps the most show-stopping look, though, was a white bell-sleeved Anrealage coat that, when exposed to UV light that slowly moved down her body, turned into a kaleidoscope of colors.
After the coat’s transformation, the singer cooly took it off to reveal a pearl-embellished Balmain bodysuit underneath.
Social media observers went wild for the futuristic fashion, hailing her as “the queen of AI” and “BeyoncéGPT” — in a nod to ChatGPT.
But there was no artificial intelligence involved in the high-tech stage high jinks.
Rather, it appeared to be the handiwork of Tokyo designer Kunihiko Morinaga, who wowed fashionistas at Paris fashion week in March by making similar fashion magic.
There, Morinaga integrated his light-dependent polychromic technology into faux fur, velvet, lace, knits, jacquards and satins, according to Vogue.
For the garments, he reportedly uses photosensitive fabrics and materials that change color when exposed to UV rays and direct sunlight — bathing once-colorless togs into a sea of vibrant patterns and colors.
Once the photochromatic areas are no longer exposed to UV rays, the ensembles return to their original color after about three minutes — allowing Beyoncé to remove the coat before the colors faded away.
Representatives for Anrealage did not respond to The Post’s request for comment about its reported work with Beyoncé.
The luminescent look was one of nine costume changes Beyoncé made throughout the night — all of them playing on light and color.
Her other stop-and-stare ‘fits included an optical illusion Loewe catsuit that made it appear that hands were covering her body; an iridescent bodysuit with a matching biker jacket and detachable skirt by Georgian designer David Koma; and a yellow-and-black striped Mugler number that she paired with an antennae headpiece in a tip to her #BeyHive fan base.
