Despite racking up an impressive eight nominations for the 2023 Grammy Awards, Beyoncé has kept a low profile in recent weeks. The singer stepped out on Sunday night for a date in the infamous Giorgio Baldi celebrity enclave with rapper husband Jay-Z. She kept things pared down for the occasion, wearing a navy pleated tennis skirt, strappy heels and a long-sleeve t-shirt from the Whitney Museum merch store.
While Bey is one to set trends, not chase them, the look fits in with fashion’s lifelong obsession with tennis. This year, Miu Miu, who gave away court-ready skirts extensively, took over a tennis club. What’s great about this tonal look is how Queen Bey pairs preppy attire with a more streetwear screen-printed tee from one of America’s finest and most enduring museums. It’s the perfect blend of high and low.
Eagle-eyed fans noticed the star wasn’t just wearing any Whitney Merch. The t-shirt is a rare and hard to find piece online featuring a 1976 skull design by Andy Warhol. Honestly, I had an embarrassing time trying to find the same tee online today with no success. Someone online spotted Jay-Z wear the same t-shirt in another older photo, suggesting it may be a wonderful “What’s yours is mine” moment for the couple. Stars! They are like us.
