Beyonc Wears Nipple Tassels in New 'Renaissance' Album Art

Publish date: 2024-05-28

Beyoncé's Renaissance is set to drop tomorrow, July 29, but to further heighten the anticipation, today the singer shared new album art that features stunning images of her in a series of flaming-hot outfits.

In one shot, Bey channels Madonna in a black-and-gold spandex bodysuit with a built-in cone bra, which she styled with sheer black polka-dot tights and oversized gold-and-diamond drop earrings.

In another, she wears an oversized cherry-red puffer jacket while sitting on a desk with an "On Air" sign—seemingly representing a media moment—and clasping her gold-manicured hands together.

A third image of Queen B is more casual but no less glamorous—it shows the singer lounging back in what looks to be an old-school bar booth, sipping a brown spirit, while wearing a skintight long-sleeved black dress with a plunging metallic bodice and spikes that raise over her shoulders. Her hair is styled into a messy beehive updo—because, of course.

The looks certainly don't end there. In one bizarre shot, Beyoncé is portrayed as part of a work of art in front of what seems to be a rundown chapel with Venetian-inspired stained glass windows. Bey sits in the forefront of the picture in an oversized red turtleneck dress with squared shoulders embellished with multicolored stones—her hair up in a superglued, diagonal Leaning Tower of Pisa-style updo.

In one of the dreamiest close-ups of the bunch, Beyoncé smokes a bedazzled cigarette, looking luxurious in a forest green tulle fascinator with a black sheer veil in the front, and donning a deep red lip.

In yet another image, Bey gives a nod to stylish villain Cruella de Vil, wearing a furry, abstract zebra-print bodysuit with leather opera gloves in the same pattern, matching sunglasses, sheer black tights, and black-and-white feather earrings.

Bey also took the sultry route in a black sheer bodysuit worn over polka dot tights—elevated with a pair of black and silver nipple tassels and a black velvet fascinator. She accessorized with silver hoop earrings to match the delicate chains on her tassels.

And because it's always stylish Halloween in the Beyhive, the "Break My Soul" singer also posed in a sexy cowgirl ensemble consisting of a plunging black bodysuit with feathers on the long sleeves, black pointed-toe pumps, and an oversized cowboy hat turned up at the sides and into a high curve.
