The fitting of the sportswear looked quite appealing, keeping up with the athletic fashion statement. Nevertheless, netizens also went bonkers and appreciated the singer’s new athleisure wear collection. “Rihanna nails it every time” and “Oh wow! Yes @savagexfenty ! Get the track girlies in your stuff! 🙌🏾” were some of the many affirmations in the comment section.

RiRi announced her expansion into sportswear last year on social media. To make her Savage x Fenty collection a grand success, she roped in her longtime collaborator Adam Selman as the brand’s Executive Design Director. The 35-year-old had expressed in a press release that she desired to push boundaries in sportswear.

RiRi also added, “We think of sport as how you move through your life. I want people to feel sexy, carefree, and powerful when they put these pieces on and Adam is the perfect designer to carry out that vision.” Later on, the collection was dropped on November 9, 2022.
