New York—Diamonds Do Good (DDG) announced another award that will be presented at its annual fundraising event during the JCK Las Vegas show.

Shiona Turini, Beyoncé’s stylist, will receive the “Diamond Influence Award” for her contributions to shaping and influencing diamonds in the cultural landscape, said DDG.

Turini is a consultant, stylist, and costume designer with nearly two decades of experience.

“Shiona’s tireless work ethic and distinctive personal style have been widely acclaimed by her peers in the fashion and entertainment industries,” according to the biography provided by DDG.

She started in fashion editorial, later working in commercial styling, music videos, and red-carpet events.

She worked with Solange Knowles, Beyoncé’s sister, on her 2016 music videos “Don’t Touch My Hair” and “Cranes in the Sky,” which led her to work as a stylist on Beyoncé’s “Formation” music video the same year.

In 2023, Turini served as lead stylist on Beyoncé’s “Renaissance World Tour” and was the costume designer for "Renaissance: A Film by Beyoncé."

Tiffany & Co. was the official jeweler for Beyoncé’s Renaissance World Tour. 


For Beyoncé’s latest album, “Cowboy Carter,” Turini has worked on styling visuals for album covers and personal styling for the star’s new country music era.

The Hollywood Reporter recognized Turini this year as one of Hollywood’s top 25 stylists.

As a costume designer, she handled wardrobe for seasons three, four, and five of HBO’s “Insecure” series, created by Issa Rae.

She also led the costume design for the upcoming Apple TV series, “Lady in the Lake,” starring Natalie Portman, debuting this summer.

Turini has worked with several notable luxury brands, including Audemars Piguet and Tiffany & Co.

Additional awards will be presented to the Gemological Institute of America, London Jewelers, and Lisa Bridge, president and CEO of Ben Bridge Jewelers.

The DDG Awards will be presented to the honorees at the organization’s gala on Thursday, May 30, the night before the JCK Las Vegas show opens, at 6 p.m. in the San Polo Ballroom in the Venetian.

Founded in 2007, Diamonds Do Good, formerly known as the Diamond Empowerment Fund, was inspired by Nelson Mandela's work to raise awareness about the positive impact of the natural diamond industry. Today, it supports programs that develop and empower people in natural diamond communities.
