Singer, actress, designer, businesswoman. There are many facets to the multi-talented Rihanna but one thing that is constant – especially in the last year or so – is her love for monochrome outfits and nearly always in white.
It might sound monotonous but there’s one thing that has been obvious about the Barbadian artist over the years and that is she is never boring. Ever. Because Riri is a trendsetter and she knows just how to get the most out of a look. When it comes to the lightest shade on the scale, she manages to combine it in different textures and silhouettes to create myriad, interesting outfits.
In white she’s found a perfect unifying thread, a canvas on which to project her many roles: from Sexy Rihanna through to Couture Rihanna, here you have all her looks.
Total score
The marble tones in this patent Alexander Vauthier trench coat plus the chalk white pants from her
Fenty line creates a bright outfit that Rihanna topped off with a simple t-shirt and the Peekaboo Iconic bag by Fendi. Way to stand out at a Los Angeles Lakers game!
Shining bright
The tube-like midi strapless dress in white vinyl by Alex Perry fits the Work singer like a glove, letting her silhouette do the talking. She coordinated its shiny, ruched fabric with a mini white bag and square toe T-heels by Fenty.
Impeccable landing
Over a completely white base comprised of sweatpants and a simple top, she wore a very light beige jacket by Acne with a lambskin gillet by Celine for the perfect just-landed, airport look.
Style queen
You only need to take a quick glance at her Instagram feed to see that her The Pouch purse by Bottega Veneta is one of her favorites - and it’s no surprise that she has a version in white. For this look she lets the purse take the lead in the monochromatic outfit with her Xenia top by
Frankie Shop, completing the look with a leather mini skirt by Fenty.
Girl boss
The Diamonds singer headed up a Fenty Beauty conference in Korea dressed like the coolest boss in town. She gave her oversized tailored suit by Jacquemus a sexy twist with Savage Fenty lingerie, just visible beneath the jacket.
High and low
Rihanna isn’t afraid of mixing high fashion with fast fashion. In this off-white combo, she rocks a classic Chanel tweed jacket with a jogger and hoodie from Palace Skateboards.
Female power
Launching her Fenty line in one of the outfits from the collection – this time her take on the masculine power suit in the form of a mini dress. In her favorite hue, the blazer dress has the close-fitting silhouette of corsets to give the look a very seductive twist.
Take a bow
Total white looks have been a firm favorite of the singer for a long time – we only have to see how she’s incorporated it into her own line to see how fundamental it is to her look. And back in 2018 at the Diamond Ball, she gave us a hint of the style direction she was going in with this white lace catsuit with a huge bow ball skirt over the top, by Alexis Mabille.
