Rihanna’s Savage x Fenty Show Celebrated Womanhood And Inclusivity

Rihanna closed out New York Fashion Week with a boundary-breaking fashion show for her size- and skintone-inclusive lingerie line, Savage x Fenty, at the Brooklyn Navy Yard Wednesday night.

It was a catwalk coup that lasted nearly thirty minutes as models made their way around an oblong lush green runway decorated with gigantic fronds, waterfalls and spinning spherical cages. In addition to casting runway vets including Joan Smalls, Bella Hadid and Gigi Hadid, Rihanna had a slew of professional dancers, plus-size models and proud pregnant ladies showing off her sexy wares.

Their runway walks were far from somber: Models pulled out modern-dance moves and yoga poses, and at times broke out into playful prances and jubilant leaps, eliciting whoops and cheers from the crowd.

All were scantily clad, but the devil was in the Rihanna approved-details, which included heart-shaped nipple pasties, feathery day-glo boudoir slides and fresh orchids pinned to negligees.

Within a flash at the finale, there she was, the woman of the night, sauntering down the runway in a clingy brown dress and stiletto heels, waving to her fans as Elvis’s “Love Me Tender” played.

If you’re dying to channel the singer’s cast of writhing catwalk characters, she’s made it easy. All the looks shown are currently available on the brand’s site — and they’re affordable; Think $30 bralettes and $19 briefs.
