Few stars have harnessed the powers of style transformation quite like Rihanna. Throughout her career she has rocked a plethora of statement looks – from Met Gala 'omelette' gowns to nailing the naked dress trend before it was even a thing.
The star first burst onto the music scene back in 2005 with her debut single Pon de Replay and since then has left us in awe of her outfits on literally every single occasion.
Case in point: her Super Bowl halftime set. Obviously RiRi was always going to pull out all the stops, but her performance, the first in nearly seven years, left us reeling.
From her pregnancy announcement and her vibrant Alaïa utility-feel jumpsuit to her custom Loewe breastplate and mid-set makeup touch-up moment, we can't stop thinking about what we witnessed. In fact, we might even give it a quick rewatch now…
Rihanna and A$AP Rocky's relationship
In the meantime, we're thinking about Rihanna's partner in crime. Since she was first romantically linked to A$AP Rocky back in 2019 (the pair put in a seriously stylish appearance at the Fashion Awards that year) and they confirmed their relationship in 2021, they have come through with some incredible joint fashion moments.

And A$AP Rocky, a style icon in his own right, has more than risen to the challenge.
Since joining forces, the couple have epitomised style goals. For multiple red carpet appearances (think 2021 Met Gala, the Black Panther: Wakanda Forever premiere and this year's Golden Globes) Rihanna and A$AP have opted for harmonious shades, giving their joint look a sense of sartorial cohesion. Legends only.
