Ariana Grande Is Breaking Stereotypes, Starting With the Way You Shop


But while genderless shopping is not a new concept and slowly becoming the norm for many, I learned that nearly all of Grande’s style influences are men. “I draw a lot of inspiration from my friends,” she told the group, specifically referencing her choreographer and close friend, Brian Nicholson. “I love his style because he doesn’t give a fuck—like mix and matches all the coolest things. I love people with super-distinct style who don’t follow any type of rules.” Other influences include Law, who she calls the most fabulous person she knows, as well as Pharrell Williams. “We’ve been working together a lot lately. I’ll see him wearing something, and I’ll be like, ‘Just so you know, I’m wearing that tomorrow.’ He’s like Regina George.”

Don't worry—the Mean Girl references end there. In fact, becoming a part of the Reebok family is pretty much a step in the opposite direction of “you can't sit with us” for the oft press-shy star.

“I don’t do a lot of things like this, so this is really exciting for me. There’s a personal attachment. I really love what Reebok stands for as a brand, as a huge advocate of self-expression and encouraging people to embrace who they are and the things that are different about them.” Of course, it also doesn’t hurt that Grande’s a bit of a super fan of fitness gear, as well. “I love athleisure. Looking cute while you do things that make you feel good is very important, as well, and I want to help Reebok inspire people to define fitness on their own terms, be healthy, and start from the inside. It all connects from there.”

Below, some of the pieces available today from Ariana Grande’s new—and ongoing—Reebok partnership.
