Get ready to see Beyoncé everywhere the next few weeks and months, because ever since the Super Bowl, she’s already been making moves. Most recently, she debuted her Ivy Park collection with Top Shop and ELLE got to talk to her about the inspiration behind the line and what she wants to accomplish with it.
In her cover story for the May 2016 issue, Bey explains the thought behind the name and why it means so much to her. She also speaks on empowering women and making them see why each has a purpose and how they can become better by the way they think about themselves and eat.
“It’s really the essence: to celebrate every woman and the body she’s in while always striving to be better. I called it Ivy Park because a park is our commonality. We can all go there; we’re all welcomed. It’s anywhere we create for ourselves. For me, it’s the place that my drive comes from. I think we all have that place we go to when we need to fight through something, set our goals and accomplish them.”
The new issue of ELLE with the full interview will hit newsstands in select cities on April 6 and nationwide on April 19.
