After wearing a nostalgic slip dress to support the release of A$AP Rocky’s fourth album, Rihanna decided to revive another popular style trend. On Friday, January 16, the Fenty founder was photographed in New York City pairing 2025’s rugby shirt trend with last year’s white heels trend.
Rihanna—who was styled by Jahleel Weaver—wore a Vaquera rugby sweatshirt with an oversize gray peacoat from the label. She layered her top with a pinstripe navy blazer, and wore a pair of black knife pants from Balenciaga.
For footwear, the singer opted for a pair of crisp white Amina Muaddi pointed-toe pumps featuring an ankle strap. The designer’s Anok 105 Patent Leather Pumps in White usually retail for $1,035.
