The singer’s black dress, flat black hat and long, diamond-shaped earrings was all about her support for the Black Panther Party, Beyonce’s make-up artist Sir John told People.
“It started with Super Bowl last January, and here we are a year later,” Sir John explained. “If you look at the beret from yesterday, the turtleneck part of the dress tonight–its sculptural silhouette. It was a really strong, powerful moment. This is something that is representative of love and solidarity for her people.”

Sir John also gave some details about how he did the make-up around Beyonce’s eyes to fit her choice to wear sunglasses to the Grammys.
“I created a cat eye using a black liquid eye liner, and added a rose gold eye shadow on the centre of her eyes. And underneath the eye I used a brown kohl, because brown is less aggressive,” he said.
