Dsquared2's Wonder Twins Creating a Costume For Beyoncé's Upcoming Tour

Dean and Dan Caten of Dsquared2 are the latest designers to create an onstage look for Beyoncé.

Dean and Dan Caten of Dsquared2 are the latest designers to create an onstage look for Beyoncé.

The singer will wear at least one costume created by the designers during her Mrs. Carter Show tour, which begins on April 15 in Belgrade, Serbia and ends on August 15 in Brooklyn. The look is inspired by some of the more glamorous pieces in the Catens' '90s-fueled Spring 2013 collection, and a representative for the brand told Vogue UK that the outfit is "a unique outfit created exclusively for her."

But Beyoncé isn't the first diva to have a major fashion house design a tour wardrobe. Gucci's Frida Giannini created looks for Florence Welch to wear on tour in 2011, and Riccardo Tisci of Givenchy designed the looks Rihanna is wearing on her Diamonds Tour.

An idea of what Mrs. Carter's costume might look like, here in the gallery.

DSquared2 Fall 2013

Imagine what the patrons of a glamorous '40s-era Parisian jazz club would wear, and you're not far off from the Fall 2013 collection from DSquared2.

Imagine what the patrons of a glamorous '40s-era Parisian jazz club would wear, and you're not far off from the Fall 2013 collection from DSquared2. Designers Dean and Dan Caten sent out a series of looks that ran the gamut from masculine (Cara Delevingne walked the runway in a double-breasted suit with full-cut trousers) to ultrafeminine, like the silk gown trimmed in ostrich feathers that opened the show.

If that doesn't sound luxurious enough, there was plenty more.

amfAR Cinema Against Aids Gala Brings Out Dolce, Gabbana, Natasha Poly, and a Little Bit of Twi-Hard in Carine Roitfeld

>> This evening's amfAR Cinema Against AIDS gala in Cannes promised the appearances of chairs Donatella Versace and Carine Roitfeld, and it more than delivered.  Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana, who are hosting their annual blowout tomorrow night, have officially docked their "mirrored floating disco" yacht, according to T's Stefano Tonchi, and joined in on the fun.  Natasha Poly, who needed the help of two women to get into her Cavalli gown yesterday, reappeared in a leopard dress.  Claudia Schiffer made her first red carpet appearance of the festival.  And Carine Roitfeld made the rounds, stopping to chat with Twilight's Robert Pattinson.

The duo just wrapped taping on a new show for Bravo, Launch My Line, a fashion competition series for which they perform hosting and judging duties.  The premise follows 10 fashion designers paired with pop-culture notables who all want to launch their own clothing line.  They told Teen Vogue:

Dan and Dean are getting real in America! We think it's a way for the American market to learn who we are as designers — now, for the first time, they'll be able to see us and hear us. Most people here think DSquared2 is all about jeans and T-shirts. Yes, that's our bread and butter . . . but we can cut a beautiful jacket, too!

They have a new radio show, too »

Charlie's Angels at Dsquared

Dean and Dan Caten may be twins but it seems like they would prefer a threesome with the way they paired up models Esther Canadas, Fernanda Tavares and Nadege du Bospertus for a little bit of Charlie's Angels action at DSquared.

Dean and Dan Caten may be twins but it seems like they would prefer a threesome with the way they paired up models Esther Canadas, Fernanda Tavares and Nadege du Bospertus for a little bit of Charlie's Angels action at DSquared. That kind of pop cultural repurposement meant we were in for a bit of a boring show, fashion wise at least, if not sheer entertainment value. A sporty, slinky day time wardrobe combined with a va-va voom let me show some leg jersey dress eveningwear is just the sort of thing we would like to see some angels in. Sorry Charlie but that's all you get.

Dsquared designers Dean and Dan Caten will supply their fashion expertise for season 10 of America's Next Top Model.

The duo will style the finalists for the show's promotional ad campaign poster, exclusively wearing Dsquared, with the theme of "Marlene Dietrich goes gangster gone wild; Bonnie, Bonnie, no Clyde," as Dean explained.

The designers will also be featured in an episode soon — no surprise, since in season 2, the final two candidates walked in a Dsquared fashion show in Milan.
