Bey hit the stage in two custom-made creations by the iconic Italian designer this weekend, both of them designed in the typically over-the-top glitzy and diva-inspired style Donatella has become known for.

Gaga even wrote a song about her fashion idol; the designs Donatella crafted for Beyoncé are much more (shall we say) subtle than those she’s made for Gaga and other pop stars. Check them out below!
