So, what can we expect from Parkwood Topshop Athletic Ltd? In a nutshell, it's a 'global athletic street-wear brand that's going to encompass clothing, footwear and accessories across dance, fitness and sports categories ensuring a dynamic fusion of fashion with the highest levels of technical performance.' That might sound like a mouthful, but basically it'll deliver seriously cool sportswear with an urban edge; the kind of attire that has practically become Bey's uniform when she's off-duty. And, when they say global, they mean global. The range will be stocked in Topshop stores the world-over as well as being made available on Topshop.com, making the line accessible for pretty well everyone, no matter where they're geographically based. Speaking about the new venture, Topshop's head honcho, Sir Philip Green, revealed: 'We have been looking at this category as fashion inspired fitness develops, and know that this is right in our customers' heartland. Creating a partnership with Beyoncé, one of the most hard-working and talented people in the world, who spends many hours of her life dancing, rehearsing and training is a unique opportunity to develop this category.'
