Stella McCartney launched a limited-edition T-shirt inspired by a custom look worn by Beyoncé Knowles-Carter during the final London performance of her “Cowboy Carter Tour” on June 16. The T-shirt features two blackbird embellishments on the front, referencing Knowles-Carter’s rendition of “Blackbird” — a song originally written and performed by Paul McCartney of The Beatles in 1968.
Knowles-Carter wore a custom iteration of the shirt along with custom fringe chaps to perform the song in London.
