Rihanna’s maternity wear remains an inspiration. On Friday night, the Fenty beauty founder showed off her pregnancy physique while attending the Gucci afterparty during Milan Fashion Week. The 34-year-old, who is expecting her first child with boyfriend A$AP Rocky, was wearing a vintage Gucci sheer black mini dress with cut outs across her torso and looking incredibly sexy.
The dress was accessorized with a Gucci beaded purse, and a pair of Gianvito Rossi custom “Montecarlo” sandals. As usual, Rihanna was wearing a number of stunning jewelry pieces, including a Lang Antiques diamond cross pendant on a long chain. Her shaggy lavender coat hung open, and was matched by glittering purple eye shadow.
During the show itself, Rihanna wore the same purple coat, but underneath was a leather crop top and satin slacks with a red dragon pattern up the leg. She wore a pair of pointed red shoes and gold headdress.
Rihanna’s style has been a big topic since she revealed she was pregnant on the last day of January 2022. Her photos with Rocky showing off her baby bump featured a hot pink Chanel coat and strings of jewels. Since then, every outfit has been sleek and form-fitting. She recently told Refinery29 that this is a very deliberate choice, especially after months of hiding her pregnancy.
“Right now I’m really into pushing the idea of sexy,” Rihanna explained. “When women get pregnant, society tends to make it feel like you hide, hide your sexy, and that you’re not sexy right now [but] you’ll get back there and I don’t believe in that sh-t. So I’m trying stuff that I might not have even had the confidence to try before I was pregnant…The strappiest, the thinnest, and the more cut-outs the better for me.”
