When has Rihanna ever played by the rules? She always finds a way to go above and beyond—but never too far—when it comes to her work, always delighting and surprising her adoring fans. Most recently, it was with the launch her long-awaited makeup line. Then, at the Spring 2018 show for her Fenty x Puma collection during New York Fashion Week (scheduled for the same week as the Fenty Beauty launch, by the way), Rihanna once again pulled out all the stops by hosting one of the most heart-pounding spectacles we’ve seen this season. No, really—she brought motocross to Fashion Week.

Instead of taking the traditional bow on the runway at the end of her show (as designers tend to do), Rihanna opted for a drive-by, cruising into the Park Avenue Armory in New York on the back of the motorbike, clad in new Spring 2018 Fenty, waving to the audience gathered in the bleachers. Take a look:

That wasn’t even the most unexpected part of the event: Rihanna’s Fenty show opened with motorbikes flying over the pink sand-filled runway. Then, model Slick Woods rode past the front row on the back of bike. Casual.

Then, after all of the models (which included Adriana Lima, Kaia Gerber, Joan Smalls, Stella Maxwell, Adwoa Aboah, among others) walked the runway, the motorbikes came back out with their aerial tricks for the finale.

At any other Fashion Week event, we may have had to pick up our jaws from the floor after watching this display—but this isn’t just any NYFW show. This is Fenty.

So, roll into this workweek with the gusto of a Bad Gal at the end of her latest collection debut. It’s what Rih would want.
