Janet Jackson made a rare public appearance on Monday, October 9, to celebrate her friend, designer Thom Browne, at his event in London.
The singer, 57, was spotted at Thom Browne's 20th Anniversary celebration with Phaidon at the Victoria and Albert Museum, and looked almost unrecognizable.
From head to toe, she was dressed in the brand, sporting a gray sweater vest with a white button down and tie with wide-legged office pants and chunky black high heels.
The main attraction was the elaborately striped tweed gray overcoat with gold accent buttons and artistically frayed stitching. Her hair was styled in voluminous curls and she accessorized with a pair of glasses to pull the preppy look together.
She took to Instagram after the event to share a selfie and wrote: "So excited to be celebrating the launch of my friend Thom Browne's first monograph marking the 20th Anniversary of his incredible brand tonight. Congratulations! What a talent."
Fans gushed over the pop star's new look, leaving comments like: "Queen dressed up like a professor so she can teach the girls how it's done," and: "Alllll kinds of YES! I'm signing up for your class!"

Janet was most recently spotted at New York Fashion Week, attending her friend Christian Siriano's SS24 show in another head-to-toe ensemble, this time in skintight leather.
