Beyoncé came to slay with her iconic 'Phoni Braxton' Halloween costume

Halloween is almost upon us, which means the world is eagerly awaiting the annual costume reveal of one Beyoncé Giselle Knowles-Carter.

Every October (into early November,) Queen Bey graces her Instagram followers with a flurry of Halloween-themed posts in which she reveals her extraordinarily elaborate and thoroughly impressive costumes. It's a true blessing for all.

On Tuesday, Beyoncé got a head start on the holiday and dropped three photos of her 2018 costume: singer Toni Braxton...or should we say Phoni Braxton?

"Sending love and adoration to one of our talented legends," Beyoncé captioned her first post. "Thank you for the countless bops. Your tone, your beauty, your range, and your God-given talent is treasured. Loving you always. Have a Happy Halloween my Kings and Queens."

The costume pays homage to Braxton's debut album cover. The lipstick, short hair, white tank top, light-wash jeans, leather jacket, and chain belts were absolute perfection. She nailed it.

As loyal fans know, Beyoncé and the Carter family take Halloween very seriously. Last year Bey and Jay paid tribute to iconic rap duo Lil' Kim and Notorious B.I.G. for their pal Kelly Rowland's Halloween party.

As Beyoncé is known for donning multiple costumes over the course of Halloween week, we wouldn't be surprised if she keeps rolling out other iconic Phoni Braxton looks in the coming days.

After all, she did unveil a whopping five Lil' Kim costumes last year, so the bar's pretty high. But even if this is Bey's only costume, she's already made Braxton proud.

Who runs Halloween? Bey.
