Talk about being fashionably late.
Rihanna arrived at the launch of her Fenty pop-up shop at The Webster in New York City on Tuesday a cool three hours after she was scheduled to do so.
But good things come to those who wait, and when the 31-year-old pop star finally showed up, she did so in a never-before-seen look from her label’s second, forthcoming release.
The “Wild Thoughts” singer wore a strappy, hot pink minidress with ruching up the side and an open back, paired with matching rhinestone-accented heels, David Webb “Grand Girandole” chandelier earrings ($585,000), a David Webb aquamarine stud cuff ($145,000), a number of large diamond bracelets, a David Webb “Cubist” ring ($54,000) and another David Webb diamond ring ($49,000). The Grammy winner-turned-designer also debuted a new hair look, sporting red, waist-length braids.
Just as headline-making, however, were the new Fenty designs, including two new T-shirts — one that reads “immigrant” and another emblazoned with “no more music.”
Great news for fans of her fashions, not so great for those who’ve been patiently waiting for that new single to drop.
