BAZAAR // RIHANNA

Leave it to Rihanna to steal the show during Paris Fashion Week.

The superstar touched down in the City of Lights on Thursday, a day before boyfriend A$AP Rocky is expected to launch his debut runway show under his creative agency, AWGE.

Arriving at the famed Le Royal Monceau last night, Rihanna made a statement in a red monochromatic outfit—the centerpiece of which was a long, sweeping coat in cherry red from Dior’s Fall/Winter 2002 ready-to-wear collection. 

The holy-grail outerwear, sourced from Archive Vintage, was more cutout than coat, with columns of meticulous diagonal shreds lining the front and back, as well as on the ends of the sleeves. The Fenty Beauty founder appeared to wear little else underneath other than a nude bodysuit, white Loewe pumps, and a flashy diamond necklace. She continued the red theme with her other choice of accessories, including oversize scarlet sunglasses from Linda Farrow × the Attico and a Fendi maroon shoulder bag with an oxblood snakeskin strap.

With Rocky’s highly anticipated collection set to launch today, we can likely expect another major Rihanna style moment, too.

The rapper recently teased his show in an interview with GQ, revealing that he has been working on the collection “for quite some time.”

“It started around last year. But it’s never over until it’s over, though, right?” Rocky told the magazine. “No matter what, you’re still making tweaks and changes; it’s so similar to the mixing and mastering stage of an album. Near the end, that’s when you got miracles and buzzer-beaters and stuff.”
