JayZ ,Beyonce and their daughter Blue Ivy attend the 2016 CFDA fashion Awards in NYC

 Beyonce won the fashion award atthe 2016 CDFA in New York on monday. Accompanied  by her husnand and daughter, all looking fabulous.




The singer was introduced by CFDA President Diane Von Furstenberg, who called her “today’s biggest superstar.” The crowd gave her a standing ovation as she took the stage to her song “Formation” in a sparkly, striped Givenchy suit. “As long as I can remember, fashion has always been a part of my life,” she said. “Its effect on me actually started before I was born. Most of you guys don’t know this, but my grandmother was a seamstress.” She went on to say that her grandmother made clothes for clergy members in exchange for her mother Tina’s Catholic school tuition. Tina learned her mother’s sewing skills, and was instrumental in creating iconic looks for Destiny’s Child. But those looks weren’t easy to pull together. “When we were starting out in Destiny’s Child, high-end labels, they didn’t want to dress four black, country, curvy girls,” the singer explained. “And we couldn’t afford designer dresses and couture. My mother was rejected from every showroom in New York. But like my grandmother, she used her talent and her creativity to give her children their dreams.”

Her mother and her uncle Johnny “designed all of our first costumes and made each piece by hand … putting so much passion and love into every small detail,” she said. “When I wore these clothes on stage I felt like [Game of Thrones queen] Khaleesi; I had an extra suit of armor. It was so much deeper than any brand name.”
