In the plethora of vintage pieces owned by Rihanna, one designer pops up more that once in her collectio—John Galliano. During Paris Men’s Fashion Week, the singer made a stylish appearance at the launch of her boyfriend A$AP Rocky’s creative agency AWGE. She turned heads as she arrived at Le Royal Monceau in a breathtaking vintage red Christian Dior coat from Galliano’s Fall/Winter 2002 ready-to-wear collection.
Sourced from Archive Vintage, the floor-sweeping coat with loose-fitting sleeves revealed more than it covered, with intricate diagonal shreds on the front, back and sleeves. Paired with a nude bodysuit, the outfit was accessorized with white Loewe pumps, red Linda Farrow x the Attico sunglasses, a dark maroon Fendi snakeskin bag, and a diamond necklace. The star wore her dark brown hair straight with a side bang and a red brown lip.
In an interview with GQ, Rocky discussed the upcoming collection, saying he’s been working on it “for quite some time.”
“It started around last year. But it’s never over until it’s over, though, right?” Rocky said. “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.”
