Some fans were hoping for the designers to be credited.

Beyonce is easily one of the biggest artists in the entire world. Overall, she is one of the best-selling artists of our generation. Moreover, she has won a whole slew of Grammys, and she continues to rack up accolades. Now, she is currently on the RENAISSANCE WORLD TOUR which is currently overseas. Over the weekend, Beyonce did two shows in Amsterdam which is located in the Netherlands. Both of these shows were immense as she showed off a plethora of incredible outfits that had social media very excited.

As it turns out, every single one of these outfits was from black designers. Unfortunately, black designers have been under-represented in the fashion industry for a very long time. However, Beyonce and others are trying to make sure that this is no longer the case. The megastar even took to Instagram last night, where she subsequently revealed that her collaborations with black designers were for Juneteenth. Juneteenth takes place today, and Beyonce wanted to take the occasion to celebrate black fashion and design.

Beyonce Takes To Amsterdam

"In honor of Juneteenth, everything I wore for RENAISSANCE WORLD TOUR tonight was created exclusively by Black designers," she wrote on the social media platform. Although this was an amazing idea, Beyonce is catching some flack for it. This is due to the fact that she didn't tag the designers in the post. While the outfits are incredible, her fans still don't know who designed these garments. "But I’m confused why you didn’t write the designers or at least tag them, our social media manager is not doing their due diligence with this one queen," one person wrote. "Why aren’t they tagged?" asked another.

Hopefully, the artist revises her post and gives these designers their proper shoutouts. After all, Beyonce looked amazing, and a lot of it had to do with these stunning fashion pieces. Let us know what you thought of the looks, down below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for more news from around the music world.
