Beyoncé's 45th birthday offers an opportunity to revisit the fashion eras that have defined her career.

Her earliest style identity developed during her years with Destiny's Child. The group frequently appeared in coordinated outfits, matching colors and unified silhouettes that presented the three members as one visual unit.
