Exactly a month after giving birth to her twins, Sir Carter and Rumi, Beyoncé posted a photo on her Instagram account of her wearing a dazzling floral print cape made by 24-year-old Spanish designer Alejandro Gómez Palomo. Known for her masculine designs with feminine touches, at her young age Palomo has already received praise from publications such as Vogue and W, and especially the attention of the famous singer of 'Lemonade'.

Palomo has made an impact since the first fall collection she presented at Men's Fashion Week, where most of the garments stood out for having feminine details. "I am trying to give men haute couture," the designer told WWD.

As you can see in the photo below on the Instagram account of Palomo Spain, the designer uses male models to wear feminine airwear.

Palomo had already started to make his mark in the fashion world, but the photo shared by Beyoncé, who in less than 12 hours has accumulated more than 7 and a half million likes, has catapulted her to fame.

“He is a vintage silk organizer from a very old sewing textile store in Córdoba, Spain, which is where I live. It's from around the 50s or 60s,”the designer told Vogue, about the cape that was originally designed for men. I thought, 'Oh my God, I'm so in love with this fabric.' It had a mid-century quality, but we changed that. It's exquisite… And I can't find it again, of course.”
