All The Looks From Fenty x Puma

After the Yeezy extravaganza at Madison Square Garden yesterday, the next hot celebrity ticket of the week—Rihanna’sFenty x Puma debut—was a relatively subdued and intimate affair. There was no art installation, no cast of thousands, and the only reason the show was held up by 15 minutes was because Rihanna’s pal, supermodel Naomi Campbell, was running late. Not that the Barbadian superstar is known for being timely herself: The long wait for her new album release left fans wondering if Anti would ever come out at all.

Overall, the collection had less to do with athlesiure and more with the kind of subversive streetwear rumblings that have been coursing through fashion lately. “I’m inspired by attitude more than anything,” said Rihanna. “Literally from my album to my collection, everything has been stemming from what makes me feel something, what moves me.” Of course, Rihanna has attitude in spades. She has never been afraid to take a risk on a new designer or styling trick in her wardrobe; in fact, if there’s anyone who could pull off both the women’s and the men’s looks here, it’s Rihanna.

In that sense, the clothes synthesized the trends driving a disruptive streak on the runways—not new, per se, but right now. And you could argue that sneaker culture has upended the very notion of an It shoe, given the prices that certain styles fetch on the resale market. Rihanna’s fans will be most eager to get their hands on the shoes, which ran the gamut from wedged stompers to spacey laceless booties, and kicks will be available as soon as the end of next month for less than the price of her sellout creepers. If the heels that Rihanna wore to take her bow are any indication, though, the odds on a stiletto revival just got a little bit higher.
