Black Girl Magic at NYFW: Slick Woods Slayed the Runway While in Labor

Photo Courtesy of Instagram/@Starrietheartist An overlooked, but seriously AMAZING moment happened at the Fenty SavagexFenty show at this year’s New York Fashion Week. Model Slick Woods walked the runway, showcasing her baby bump, then gave birth hours later. Slick Woods has been the face of Fenty since it was launched by Barbados-native, singer and actress Rihanna. The brand includes a beauty and fashion line including lingerie. Slick has done several shoots and shows since the announcement of her pregnancy, making her bump just as famous as her! Slick hasn’t had an easy road to fame, the model is often critiqued by the public for her gap and low-cut hairstyle. Despite that, she’s still a highly-sought after and highly-paid supermodel (get your coins, sis!) The awesomeness doesn’t stop there, singer and songwriter Erykah Badu, who’s also a certified doula (birthing coach) agreed to and was there to assist in delivering Wood’s bundle of joy. This is the 22-year-old’s first child. Congrats, Slick!
