Her Fall 2019 Savage x Fenty Fashion Show released on Amazon Prime Video on Sept. 20, and it has the internet in complete awe. The show, which took place on Sept. 10 during New York Fashion Week, was not your typical Fashion Week runway. In true Rihanna fashion, she featured gorgeous models of all sizes and abilities. She had transgender models, amputee models, plus-size models, and so many more represented on the runway, ensuring that every single person can see themselves in her lingerie. Rihanna rewrote the standards of what a runway show should look like, and in doing so, she's setting the bar incredibly high for the fashion industry. Not only was there an immense amount of diversity and inclusion at her show, but the show itself was an applause-worthy production. With performances by Normani, Big Sean, Halsey, and more, it was a 50-minute work of art. For her second-ever Savage x Fenty lingerie show during New York Fashion Week, Rihanna has the internet in awe. Fans are praising her shattering of industry standards, inclusivity, and overall dedication to the brand. See what everyone is saying about the show ahead.
