Signifiers



Signifiers - Beyonce (Best Thing I Never Had)

  • The colour white represents her innocence and purity, and the rose may also represent the love she once had for her lover.
  • The clip in the video signifies a time in her past that she is now over.
  • The crown the man is wearing could possibly suggest that at the time he thought he was the more powerful one - 'the king' in the relationship.
  • The costume she is wearing at the beginning which is quite revealing, suggests that she wasn't complete in comparison to the end of the video where she is wearing a full wedding dress.
  • The lifting up of the bridal veil represents a new person.
