Rihanna’s Big, Big Hat and Teeny Tiny Corset Is Her Best Look of the Year

Not since 2014, when Rihanna arrived on the CFDA Awards in a very sheer Adam Selman robe and matching headpiece, has the 36-year-old made this a lot of a splash whereas arriving at a style get together. On December 2, the multi-hyphenate walked the pink carpet of The 2024 Fashion Awards in a flashy classic Christian Lacroix ensemble from the model’s fall/winter 2002 assortment.

RiRi’s associate, A$AP Rocky, was there too, wanting dapper (although a bit informal by comparability) in an impeccably tailor-made Bottega Veneta ensemble, which he accessorized with a leather-based tie.

But Rihanna, clearly, is the true showstopper right here. With the assistance of her longtime stylist, Jahleel Weaver, the style plate modified the runway look, styling the electrical blue coat over a corseted physique swimsuit and swapping opaque pink tights for sheer black stockings. Her black leather-based opera gloves tie the entire thing collectively, and play properly off Rocky’s leather-based tie. The full look is giving Moulin Rouge meets Sully from Monsters Inc., and I imply that in one of the simplest ways.
