Savage X Fall Winter 2018 Fashion Show for NYFW

ArianneUpdated on September 13, 2018September 12, 2018

PHHH… PHRESH OUT THE RUNWAY! No one does fashion week like a Badgal! The Savage X Fall Winter 2018 fashion show by far was the hottest ticket of New York Fashion Week. Dancers, top models and a collection of lingerie that would make anyone break a sweat. Ohhh baby!

Savage X Fall Winter 2018 Fashion Show for NYFW

Listen, business mogul, Rihanna, sure knows how to attract attention and stir up some sales! The Savage X creator not only sent a spanking new fall/winter collection down the catwalk; but she also dropped it online at the SAME TIME. Uh, can you say, website crash?

What can fans and lingerie lovers as well as consumers expect? The autumn collection is full of fun flirty colors as well as details. More lace, ribbons and barely there see-through material were incorporated into numerous fab looks.

The color scheme is vast yet alluring and steamy fun. Rich blue, bold light green, red and decadent purple all permeated the seductive designs. Nevertheless, if boisterous hues are no where to be found in your couture dictionary; you will be happy to know there are “safer” tones to enjoy as well.

Rihanna’s fall/winter garments also include some frilly, ultra fem pinks, lilac and light baby blues. Plus, numerous looks additionally utilize a very earth tone palette. Think browns, military green, and light tans. Or, if all else fails there is always classic black.

Savage X Fall Winter 2018 Fashion Show for NYFW (Continued)

One sexy element we certainly adored was the use of accessories, such as the “long hand gloves.” Since let’s face it, wearing the same old … same old intimate apparel is a total bore! The real fun is in the additions.

The gloves that extend from fingertips to above the elbows exude a very vintage, full of sass feel. Like the pin up doll era. This retro sexy incorporation is a surefire way to increase your lingerie attire’s fierce appeal. Like it really needs it though (wink, wink).

Savage X Fall Winter 2018

Like any dominant businesswoman, Rihanna ALWAYS listens to her fans and consumers. When Savage X first hit the fashion scene, many felt that they were not apart of the equation. Ladies from all over the world spoke up about the size range availability within Savage X.

Rihanna obviously got the memo and listened 100%. The autumn/winter runway showcased tons of diversity and inclusion. Thin shapes, curvy shapes and everything in-between hit the catwalk to proudly represent women of all physiques.

Rihanna’s line proves that where there is a will, there is a way to be inclusive of women of all sizes, heights and structure. The fashion industry has always leaned toward one particular look; nevertheless, with the success of Savage X other designers and owners may just take note.
