10 years later, Beyoncé has reinvented her iconic “revenge dress.”
A decade after “Lemonade,” the singer celebrated the milestone anniversary of her sixth studio album among family and friends in Beverly Hills, paying homage to the past while potentially teasing future music.
Sharing a captionless carrousel of images to Instagram on Sunday night, Beyoncé wowed in a voluminous, purple Saint Laurent gown.
The ruffled confection boasts oversized puff shoulders that give way to cascading sleeves, with her curly hair mimicking the dress’ shape as it waterfalls down her back.
In one pic, Bey even pulled the neckline down below her bust, revealing a matching purple lace bra.
It recalls the tiered yellow Robert Cavalli gown — and the same crimped hair — she paired with a Louisville Slugger branded with the word “hot sauce” in the Sept. 2016 “Hold Up” music video.
She accessorized with pleated satin slingback heels, a large pearl Cult Gaia orb bag ($498) and a coordinating pearl drop necklace from Julietta ($287).
Over the weekend, Beyoncé celebrated the “Lemonade” diamond anniversary with a more casual social media post, standing in the middle of a vacant beach, with a bottle of her SirDavis whiskey in one hand and three lemons in the other.
“Cheers to ten years! With love and deep gratitude 🙏🏽🍋🐝,” she wrote.
She shared a photo of food from the evening as well, with her matching purple phone case also visible — leading fans to believe the color palette could be significant.
“SHE IN HER PRINCE ERA,” commented one fan, while another echoed, “Okkk Mrs. Purple rain!”
Speculation has been running rampant that the third act of her album trilogy, which includes 2022’s disco-forward “Renaissance” and 2024’s country “Cowboy Carter,” will be in the rock genre and heavily influenced by Prince.
Whether an announcement of more music is imminent or not, Bey is getting ready to make a big statement on the red carpet.
The singer will appear as a co-host of the 2026 Met Gala on May 6, marking her first appearance at the annual event since 2016.
Could the timing be a coincidence? We’ll have to wait and see.
