Lookbook from Beyoncé's Black Is King Visual Album

Beyoncé's visual album, Black Is King, highlights the African diaspora—its culture, traditions, and styles. From the sweeping cinematography at picturesque locations across the globe (including Nigeria, South Africa, Ghana, Belgium, London, New York, and Los Angeles) to the cast that includes an array of celebrities to the incredible number of costume changes, Queen Bey made a profound statement.

Working with stylist Zerina Akers, Beyoncé showcased a miles-long parade of ensembles that was a feast for the senses. From Riccardo Tisci at Burberry and Olivier Rousteing at Balmain to Alon Livné and Loza Maléombho, Akers corralled designers both big and small to help bring Beyoncé's incredible vision to life.
