On Friday night, the Carters stepped out in New York for the black tie gala, which celebrated the 20th anniversary of the foundation which Jay-Z and his mother, Gloria Carter, founded in 2003 to provide scholarships and educational support for more for youth and families from disenfranchised communities. For the star-studded evening, both Beyoncé and Blue looked lovely in rare evening ensembles.
The "Cuff It" singer channeled both Old Hollywood and '80s glamour with her custom Valdrin Sahiti gown, which was comprised of a curve-hugging black silhouette, a hip-high slit, and a sculptural bodice made of oversized swirls of ruffled silver fabric, which formed a plunging neckline at the middle of the torso. The star wore her hair in a whimsical top knot with curly face-framing tendrils, and completed the look with black opera gloves, strappy stiletto sandals, an array of diamond jewelry including earrings and a necklace, and futuristic triangular sunglasses with diamond-adorned frames.
In addition to sharing a series of outfit pics and some selfies taken inside the venue, Bey also shared a video montage, jumping on the popular "My Husband" trend on TikTok. She timed the viral audio clip—in which the singer says, "I am on to see my husband. I'm happy, I'm happy, to see my husband"—to show photos of a tuxedo-clad Jay-Z at the end of each phrase.

The multi-hyphenate also highlighted her daughter's luxe ensemble on Instagram. In the sweet pic, Blue Ivy extends the flowy pleated skirt of her emerald-green A.L.C. maxi dress, which featured a one-shouldered neckline and a circular cutout at the hip. The 11-year-old paired the gown with a pair of black-and-white platform Converse Chuck De Luxe heels, and her accessories included a rectangular silver clutch and dangling emerald earrings. She also wore her braided hair pulled back in a low ponytail.

Meanwhile, Blue wore an off-the-shoulder denim dress by Reformation, which she paired with a long gold chain necklace and brown Fendi sunglasses.
