Rihanna Gives a ’90s Coat a Totally 2024 Feel

Rihanna is the type of megawatt star that, fashion-wise, can pull off just about anything. A rich grandma aesthetic? Yep! Lingerie and baggy jeans? You bet. She has that innate ability to pair the most juxtaposing of pieces together—and somehow, the end result always works. This weekend in New York City was no different: The singer and entrepreneur stepped out in a statement look that included cool staples from a mishmash of decades. So let’s dive in, shall we?

The star’s going-out look centered around her zebra-striped faux fur jacket. (Fab, no?). The piece, per @rihannastyleguide, is by the Turkish designer Rifat Ozbek from the 1990s, and was sourced from Archive Vintage. Sure, the outerwear may be from over three decades ago, but leave it to Rihanna to make it feel very 2024; it was all in how 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, which fellow trendsetters like Kendall Jenner love, too.

There’s nothing like an It bag to make a look feel entirely current. Though, it helps when you’re dripping in diamonds as well. As usual, Rihanna piled on the jewels, including shimmering pieces by Briony Raymond. Would it be a Riri ensemble without diamonds? Cue her song!
