When Beyonce made a sensational appearance on the red carpet with Jay Z wearing the tightest dress in the world (as in so tight she couldn't walk unaided..for real..!!) at the 2011 MET Costume Institute Gala on the 2nd of May 2011, the corseted dress was entirely embellished with intricate beading and sequins..
Fashion critics hailed the dress by the Italian designer, Pucci, as chic, elegant and seriously glam...

| The dress was so skin tight, she was helped up the stairs..now that's some ...DIE HARD FASHIONISTA..move! |
...and then the dress came to Lagos. Here Maryam Elisha dubs the style but without the beading instead she goes for authentic african style embroidery but still the dress got the attention of the paparazi (albeit a different type..LOL!) on the red carpet at the Most Beautiful Girl in Nigeria 2011 Pageant...
