At the most recent Fenty X PUMA collection launch party in Barbados, Rihanna's exquisite dress once again made the headlines. At the heart of her wardrobe was the company's most recent shoes, the new Avanti LS in a startling slime green color. The design combines flare with agility, her approach was a vibrant mix of girlie fun and sportswear.

Along with the tropical Avanti LS sneakers, Rihanna donned an odd yet striking juxtaposition between sporty streetwear and a playful, laid back style. She wore a neon bikini top and a white baseball jersey, finishing it all with a lush, transparent, ruffled tutu dress. This created an almost deconstructed, unearthly impression, but vibrant.

Wearing a Sabyasachi diamond necklace, Rihanna gave the usually subdued accessories some red carpet glitter. She selected a loose but deliberate hairdo—a messy bun that accentuated her typical carefree cool, and bright makeup to finish her appearance.

The Fenty X PUMA Avanti LS Sneakers

Avanti LS is an updated version of Puma's original athletic designs. Inspired by the venerable Speedcat line, the shoe combines sleek, modern design with subdued cleat-inspired accents. The cleated heel accents and textured overlays foster a sensation of athletic agility.

Designed with good quality materials, the sneaker's top radiates refinement and durability. Its formstrip, fading overlays, and exposed stitching create a visually striking narrative of evolution and reinventions. The co-branded elements are subdued rather than ostentatious, therefore the design gets the main highlight.

The collection also has a pair of jelly flip-flop cleat sandals based on the Avanti LS. These vibrantly colored sandals draw attention as they mix the typical Puma design language's structural features with the carefree attitude of jelly shoes. Mini pocketbooks in lime and orange accentuate these items.

The Fenty X PUMA range extends to gear and accessories to finish the urban athleisure ensemble. With minimal co-branding and tropical-inspired color accents, the line includes bomber jackets, elegant tracksuits, and other casual clothing. Modern tailoring in these pieces corresponds with technological performance materials.


Attending the Fenty X PUMA launch party in Barbados, participants were able to see the future of sneaker culture—where tradition and innovation coexist in perfect harmony of form and function. Rihanna's presence at the event in her unique attire, paired up with the Avanti LS sneakers was a style statement in itself.
