It wasn’t even a question that Rita Ora’s 34th birthday bash was going to be anything short of stylish, star-studded and seriously cool.
Taking a break from her The Masked Singer US hosting duties the singer, songwriter and actress and her closest friends and family decided to take a trip away to the countryside to soak up the birthday girl.
But, what do you gift a girl who has everything she could possibly want at her fingertips? A pair of vintage 2003 Yohji Yamamoto x Adidas Y-3 2003 cowhide slip-on mei sneakers of course.

Wearing a cosy outfit concoction, consisting of black knitted pants, a matching cardigan and a fun blue Palace cap, the It-Brit showed off her new kicks like a kid on Christmas, pairing them with a set of fluffy pink socks.

The slip-on style was made in collaboration with designer Yohji Yamamoto and the sportswear giant back in 2003 and features cowhide detailing, a rubber sole and the brand’s iconic three-stripe motif in white on each side.
Rita has made it obvious that she’s an Adidas stan through and through.

Just last month she was seen out and about in Japan wearing a vibrant red Adidas tracksuit dress from Avavav’s recent Spring/Summer 2025 collaboration collection.
Though Rita’s trainers are hard to get your hands on, it’s not impossible (especially for those of us who love to track down archival pieces) and the chances Adidas brings out a similar style in the very near future is far from unexpected.
