(JTA) — Beyonce was wearing a wedding gown created by an Israeli designer when she presented at the 58th Grammy Awards.
The white and silver tulle gown by designer Inbal Dror of Tel Aviv received about a minute of air time Monday while Beyonce made the Record of the Year presentation. The singer did not walk the red carpet or sit in the audience during the show.
The dress, which reportedly cost $12,980, was high necked in the front and backless, with sheer tulle insets that began at both thighs.
Beyonce wore a red outfit created by Israeli designer Alon Livne for her 2013 world tour, according to the Times of Israel.
She is scheduled to perform in Tel Aviv in August as part of her Formation world tour.
