Rihanna is the type of megawatt star who can pull off just about anything in terms of fashion. A rich granny aesthetic? Yes! Lingerie and baggy jeans? Sure. She has the innate ability to connect the most juxtaposed pieces together – and somehow the end result always to work. This weekend in New York City was no different: the singer and entrepreneur stepped out in a statement look with cool basics from a mix of decades. So let’s dive in, shall we?
The star’s going-out look centered around her zebra-striped faux fur jacket. (Fantastic, right?). The piece, according to @rihannastyleguide, is by 1990s Turkish designer Rifat Ozbek and sourced from Archive Vintage. Sure, the outerwear may be from over thirty years ago, but leave it to Rihanna to provide the feel terribly 2024; it was all in the way she styled it. She paired the coat with a black mini dress, Gianvito Rossi pumps, Kaleos sunglasses and a Gucci’s Horsebit shoulder bag – a reinterpretation of a Tom Ford-era design used by fellow trendsetters. like Kendall Jenner love too.
There’s nothing like an It bag to make a look feel completely current. But it also helps if you drip diamonds in it. As usual, Rihanna piled on the jewelry, including glittering Briony Raymond pieces. Would it be a Riri ensemble without diamonds? Cue her song!
