Breast Cancer Awareness Month is in full effect, and brands have been empowered to give back in really big ways.

Rihanna's popular Savage X Fenty lingerie brand has jumped on board by launching limited edition styles that celebrate breast cancer survivors.

The popular label has come together with the Clara Lionel Foundation to release limited-edition Savage X Thrivers special styles to stand together with a lesser-known group of young women living with aggressive forms of breast cancer.

"I want to raise awareness for under-served breast cancer communities and the Savage X Thrivers VIP Box represent young women of all walks of life living and thriving with cancer," Rihanna said in a statement. "The easiest way for people to get involved and make a difference is by shopping this box and collection."

The $60 Savage X Thrivers VIP Box includes an assortment of pink styles, and is available in a wide range of sizes that include 32A to 42H in bras, and XS to 3X in everything else.

In addition to the exclusive breast cancer-themed box, Savage X Fenty will also be highlighting Thrivers and sharing their unique stories throughout the month.
