Beyonce in Custom Gold Monogram Latex

A full custom collection in gold monogram latex — a catsuit, a bomber, bodysuits, bra sets, a head wrap, and a belt — hand-cut and built for Beyonce on tour.

Some commissions are a single piece. This one was a wardrobe. For Beyonce's tour, styled by Marni Senofonte, we built an entire collection in a gold house monogram — every logo hand-cut and appliqued in latex, rendered across a run of coordinated pieces so the whole story reads as one.

It starts with a sketch

The look was drawn first — the oversized monogram bomber, the deep-V bodysuit, the web-striped belt, and the monogram leggings, all mapped before a panel of latex was cut.

The monogram, by hand

There is no printing here. The monogram is built — the interlocking logo cut from latex and laid up across the gold ground, plus the signature web stripe in green and red. It is painstaking, repetitive work, and it is what lets a latex piece carry a designer monogram convincingly.

The catsuit

The centerpiece: a monogram latex catsuit — a deep-V, long-sleeved bodysuit over monogram leggings, cinched with the green-and-red web belt and layered over fishnet. Head to toe in the same gold monogram.

A wardrobe of pieces

Around the catsuit, a full set of coordinating pieces — the ruched monogram bomber with striped rib trim, a monogram bodysuit, a bra-and-thong set, and a high-waist bottom. Each one built in the same gold monogram latex to mix and rematch on stage.

And in brown

A second monogram, in brown latex — a matching bralette-and-bottom set built the same way, logo by logo.

Down to the details

The extras finish the story: a gold monogram head wrap, the web-striped belt, and a ruffled monogram skirt — the accessories that tie a whole tour wardrobe together.

On stage

And then it moves. Under the lights, on Beyonce, the whole collection reads exactly as intended — the monogram catsuit, the bomber thrown over it, the head wrap catching color.

Why This Way

A monogram, built not printed

Reproducing a house monogram in latex means cutting and laying up every logo by hand across every panel — then doing it again for each piece in the collection. It is the slow, exacting way, and it is the only way to make a latex monogram read as couture under stage lights.
