“Joy was the sleep I got after releasing secrets from my bones. Joy was telling the truth. Joy was making a song that I didn’t care ever saw the light of day. Joy was taking a trip alone, and just sitting and staring at the water and seeing my reflection and thinking to myself, ‘Damn I’m fine.’ Joy was having nothing on my calendar, and choosing what to do with my time. Joy was having a friend who didn’t care how ugly I cried, always inviting and encouraging me to just be, however that looked that day. Joy was discovery.” At the link in our bio, read #SolangeKnowles’ reflections on stillness, joy, and the year that changed everything for our fall digital cover story. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Photographer: @naimagreen ⁣⁣ Hair: @kendalldorsey1⁣⁣ Makeup: @mmiiggss⁣ Entertainment Director: @whatisnojan⁣ Fashion Features Director: @kerrypieri⁣ Fashion Editor: @kiadesireegoosby⁣ Accessories Director: @kathyglee⁣ Set Design: @tfer21 ⁣⁣ Shoot Assistant: @saintcurt⁣⁣ Stylist Assistant: @juliocesardelgato⁣⁣ Special Thanks: @homeunion⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Solange (@saintrecords) wears @telfarglobal boots and @sophiebuhai jewelry
