Two pop icons of a generation have been oscillating through Paris for the last few days: Beyoncé, on her mammoth Cowboy Carter tour, and Miley Cyrus, as she continues to promote her latest album, Something Beautiful. (All while offering the City of Light streets a succession of vintage looks). And last night, Beyoncé and Miley Cyrus shut Paris down with a surprise joining of forces—with gold and gilded matching looks to boot.

Last night (June 19), and more than a few songs deep into Bey’s show at the Stade de France, the artist introduced Cyrus to the stage. “I love y’all so much. I’m super excited because I wanted to do something very special for your guys,” Beyoncé said. “Give it up—I’m so grateful to sing with you, Ms. Miley Cyrus.” The duo then performed “II Most Wanted” from 2024’s Cowboy Carter, which won them the Grammy for best country duo or group performance. Crowd, of course, went wild.

Both Bey and Miley wore sparkling, sequin gold looks: Bey wore a fringed golden bodysuit with a bauble-studded scoop neck and embellished buckle belt, with matching heeled golden cowboy boots. Cyrus chose a similarly shimmering crystal and rhinestone-studded catsuit with stiletto boots. The mega artists’s shared style memo? Go glitzy, glam, as gold as you can.

The Cowboy Carter tour has been alight with big brands putting their spin on Bey’s glamorous cowgirl aesthetic. The tour’s Western couture, as styled by Shiona Turini, Ty Hunter, and Karen Langley, has seen Bey in a bright white Mugler bodysuit and fringed chaps (with an added diamond bolo die), and Burberry with a twist on their iconic plaid with sequins, also in chaps form. Turning to Roberto Cavalli, Bey went for an all denim-printed catsuit with a giant gold belt and fringed sleeves, and with custom Schiaparelli, she slipped into some leather pants adorned with rows and rows of Western buckles. Blue Ivy, a dancer for the show, has also been styled in stage-ready rodeo wear and more glam dresses: One draped golden gown with a caped top and flowing maxi skirt, and a custom green Burberry Check bodysuit and green zip trousers with Swarovski crystal-embellishments to match her mom’s.

While it may not be immediately apparent, Beyoncé and Miley Cyrus’s sartorial formulas hit much of the same rhythms. Glamorous, Western-coded, gilded and maximal. While Bey looks to Mugler, Ferragamo, and Burberry, Cyrus often opts for Alaia, Valentino, and Versace. Both find a stylish meeting point with Schiaparelli and Roberto Cavalli.

Beyoncé has now reached over the halfway mark of the massive world tour. After Paris, she’s back in the United States for shows in her hometown of Houston, Washington D.C., Atlanta, and Las Vegas, wrapping things up on July 26. After Miley’s appearance as the tour’s first ever guest performer, we may have more to hop for when Bey hits stateside again—with more matching glitzy fashions incoming.
