With all of the designers showcasing their Spring 2017 looks, Rihanna’s own, Fenty x Puma collection has raised the bar. The debut show occurred during Paris Fashion Week and incorporated a variety of models from Imaan Hammam to Slick Woods. Inspired by Marie Antoinette, Rihanna intertwined the 19th century and street style effortlessly.
The runway was set up in a maze-like wonderland, allowing you to focus on the completed looks. Corsets, du-rags, and baseball caps were utilized most of the show. Rihanna’s “shape-shifter” expertise kicked in with baggy boilersuits, skin tight track pants, and sultry slits. Shoes included super platforms, pumps with a shoelace trim, and how could we forget about the infamous fur slides?
Overall, this season definitely sets a different tone from the last. Softer hues, ribbons, and ruffles are the complete opposite of the goth theme from the Fall 2016 Ready-to-Wear collection.
Rihanna’s advice on how to style the pieces are to either wear one item at a time, or all at once. Mix and match, create and innovate!
