This is RIANI's Autumn/Winter 2016 collection’s name, presented at the Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Berlin. The celebration of femininity is obvious, yet how well this concept and motif is actually applied is brilliant.
The designer opens the show with a singer who celebrates femininity: Rihanna and her song "Shine bright like a diamond". The audience is put in the right mood immediately. Having so many looks displayed during the show, the brand decided against exclusively size 0 models and booked oversized models as well, wearing a size 12-14 (UK), thereby representing the brand’s costumer group very well.
Overall, loving and celebrating all types of womanhood and femininity is a recurring theme through the entire collection, brought by models with tattoos, bigger or smaller clothing sizes, a septum piercing or bright green hair. This builds a bridge between the designs and every person able to watch the show, and underlines RIANI's general close connection to people.
Globally, the looks present a great variety of shapes and colours, using fabrics such as cotton, leather, PU, chiffon and wool, which also create great contrasts. Offering pieces such as a long-blazer in bright red colour with golden highlights, and then showing the same piece in a warm olive tone, give the opportunity to choose a style depending on the woman.

Showing X-, O-, and H- silhouettes, the label opens their designs for women of all shape and size and brilliantly supports feminism by celebrating - and loving - all women.
