Needless to say, it was a presentation worth remembering. We’ve highlighted the most noteworthy elements of the show below. **The location and the theme of the collection were connected**: Rihanna told show attendees that her offering would be fit for “If Marie Antoinette was going to the gym and needed something to wear.” > [](https://twitter.com/VVFriedman/status/781197518835216385) **The collection consisted of athleisure with feminine accents**: The pastel-colored sweatpants and hoodie-clad models carried handheld fans and were accessorized with pearls, ruffles, baseball caps, and corsets. Fashion critic Robin Givhan thought the color scheme resembled sorority girl ensembles. > [](https://twitter.com/RobinGivhan/status/781201545224388608) **She had a star-studded lineup of models**: Riri’s models for the show included Victoria’s Secret model Taylor Hill, model heavy hitters Imaan Hammam and Lexi Boling, and Gigi and Bella Hadid’s little brother Anwar Hadid. **Even when Rihanna’s at fashion week, her core principles remain the same:** Riri might be in a palace in France, but that doesn’t mean that she’s still not about her money. To wit, she told Vanessa Friedman backstage before the show: “Let’s do this. Let’s make some money.” > [](https://twitter.com/VVFriedman/status/781201717794779136) **Rihanna thinks pink**: The Barbados beauty took her bow in an all-pink ensemble. > [](https://twitter.com/susiebubble/status/781206790570708992) ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4512155/rihanna-fenty-puma-fashion-show-paris/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4512155/rihanna-fenty-puma-fashion-show-paris/"},"headline":"5 Things You Need to Know About Rihanna's Fashion Show In Paris","datePublished":"2016-09-28T21:48:17.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:37:08.753Z","description":"Everything you should know, right here","url":"https://time.com/4512155/rihanna-fenty-puma-fashion-show-paris/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Entertainment","fashion","Rihanna","Culture"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltbae75a5ab5ab29fe/6988a7fbbc6cfc76883debc7/rihanna-fenty-puma-fashion-show-paris.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Cady Lang","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/cady-lang/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltbae75a5ab5ab29fe/6988a7fbbc6cfc76883debc7/rihanna-fenty-puma-fashion-show-paris.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"FENTY x PUMA by Rihanna : Runway - Paris Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2017","caption":"FENTY x PUMA by Rihanna : Runway - Paris Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2017","creditText":"Jacopo Raule—Getty Images for Fenty x Puma","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4512155/rihanna-fenty-puma-fashion-show-paris/","name":"5 Things You Need to Know About Rihanna's Fashion Show In Paris"}}]}] ```
