Beyonce was joined by her husband Jay Z, daughter Blue Ivy and her mother Tina Knowles at the New York fashion event. Accepting the award, the "Sorry" singer looked at her daughter and said, "I feel the love that the audience has for me and I feel very proud. I don't know how to say it, but fashion is a part of my life. Ever since I was born, I've been wearing beautiful 'outfits' because my grandmother was a true seamstress.
Although my grandparents did not have enough money to pay for my mother's school fees, in return, she often sewed clothes for priests, nuns and even school uniforms as an exchange. Later, she passed on the sewing profession to my mother and taught her how to sew beautifully.
"So, what I'm saying now is that I want to prove to everyone that fashion has been a part of my life since I was a child. Therefore, I feel so happy to win this prestigious award" - Beyonce affirmed.
Last year was a successful year for Beyonce. She not only achieved many successes in her music career but also proved her own charm on the red carpet of events as well as in public appearances./.
