You Need To Know-Designer Tina Knowles.

Célestine Ann "Tina" Knowles (née Beyincé; born January 4, 1954) is an American fashion designer known for her House of Deréon brand. She is of Louisiana Creole heritage. Perhaps best known as the mother of singer Beyoncé Knowles, and Solange Knowles and the ex-wife of Mathew Knowles who currently serves as Beyoncé and Solange's manager, he also managed Destiny's Child. Tina served as the designer of costumes for Destiny's Child.

During the early days of her daughter's career when money was limited, she created outfits that the members wore on-stage and to events. They caught people's attention since they were one-of-a-kind garments. As the group grew more successful and had more access to designer fashions, they relied less on Knowles' work. Inspired by the legacy of Knowles' mother, seamstress Agnéz Deréon, she and Beyoncé decided to create their own clothing label. Their label is House of Deréon.

The clothing line draws its influences from today's hip hop scene as well as the 1970s fashions Knowles grew up with and the 1940s designs that she saw her mother create.
