High school teen slays in Beyoncé inspired prom dress

Luther Vandross was outed as gay after his death.

A St. Louis high school senior named India Ross saw BeyoncĂ©’s epic Met Gala dress last year and drew some serious inspiration from it. Now, her prom night pictures are going viral as she put together a dress that absolutely nails BeyoncĂ©’s look.

Ross’ gorgeous dress perfectly captured the BeyoncĂ© look, complete with an epic high ponytail.

Of course, the perfect images drew a bit of criticism from the internet for not being exactly like BeyoncĂ© or for “stealing” Queen Bey’s look, but Ross knows just what to do with haters. She wrote a response on Instagram that we think is just perfect:

The fact that people think I let ignorance ruin me, let’s make this clear, I do not think I’m BeyoncĂ© but she’s my inspiration. I think somebody is confused on an inspiration. Just because she has on a #Givenchy dress [doesn’t] mean [I’m] supposed to have a million dollar dress on. I still look so god damn fine in my Walmart, eBay, Michaels, cheap looking #givenchy dress ??? #islay I sure hell did a good job. Give credit when due #crownus #blackmagic And you’re never [going to] find a pony NAILED as mine #prom2k16 please save all your negative comments off my page ?”
