Rihanna has topped a list of the 10 most powerful celebrity fashion influencers of 2017. The popstar has turned into a fashion and beauty mogul over the last few years, working with brands like Puma, Chopard, and Manolo Blahnik, as well as launching her own cosmetics line, Fenty Beauty, in September. According to online retail shopping tool Lyst, she also sent searches soaring for brands like Gucci, Off-White and Puma after donning pieces from them, including the studded Gucci bodysuit she wore to Coachella earlier this year.
Hot on Rihanna's heels is fellow popstar Selena Gomez, who also has a sideline career as Coach model. Louis Vuitton, Sandy Liang, and Rouje benefited from the "Selena effect" as well.
