Backstage Beauty: Savage X Fenty Spring/Summer 2020
Smoky eyes, bright shimmers, bold lips— this is next level beauty.
Rihanna’s Savage x Fenty show was a one-of-a-kind show the industry has never seen before. There were quite a few moments that had us gagging, quaking and everything in between. Now that everything has calmed down a little and we all came to terms with what a badass businesswoman and entertainer Rihanna is, we are ready to give you a step-by-step breakdown of five savage looks that Fenty Beauty artistry team made up for the fierce and fearless celebration confidence and inclusivity.
Priscilla Ono & Hector Espinal, Fenty Beauty Global Makeup Artists, explain: “Each look exudes bold, sexy glam with an irreverent edge. No two exactly the same, the looks are empowering and confidence-provoking as a celebration of diversity and individuality. All of the looks were designed to match the essence of each performance and the landscape of the show.”
The Fenty Beauty artistry team used all Fenty Beauty products to create all looks that appeared on the runway that night. Each of the looks was tailored to each model, their unique features and personality—something that is seldom seen in the modeling industry still. Buckle up: we got all the details you need here.
