Beyonce and Topshop Team Up to Launch Activewear

bey2Many consider Beyonce, 33, a style icon. From her red carpet looks to concert costumes and her laid-back, everyday sense of style, it seems as though Bey can do no wrong. Now, one of her favorite stores, Topshop, has joined forces with the star to help create a brand new line for Topshop inspired by Beyonce’s active lifestyle. If you want to get your hands on the new activewear line, however, you are going to have to wait until fall 2015!

Bey not only looks good on the stage and red carpets, but also during her workouts! Popular London-based company Topshop has been a favorite of Beyonce’s over the past few years, and Topshop was smart not to let their biggest costumer pass them by. While the store is known for its more contemporary and trendy looks, it has yet to get into the activewear game — and who better to help them launch a new line than Queen Bey herself?

Beyonce is all about creating new and innovative ideas — and this isn’t your typical collaboration, it’s actually a whole new brand! “This not a collaboration. This is about building a brand and building a business — a separate, proper business, with separate overhead and a separate office,” Topshop owner Sir Philip Green told Women’s Wear Daily in an interview on Oct. 27.

The brand will offer styles that range from dance and fitness to sport categories. The collection is targeted toward women who go to yoga or to the gym — and it also works for women who want to look comfy and casual!

The partnership has been in the works since February, although it was kept under wraps — and now Queen Bey and Topshop are moving full speed ahead with the new line. The store is known for being on top of all the latest trends and Beyonce is known for setting all the trends. This partnership has the workings to be extremely popular — and stylish!

Independent journalism doesn't fund itself.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
