A-list couple Rihanna and ASAP Rocky got the chance to work together on “Fashion Killa” and have since become one of Hollywood’s most iconic couple styles.
Rihanna and her boyfriend ASAP Rocky, the A-list couple of the US UK music industry, have publicly dated since May 2021. Since then, the duo has always been the most talked about names not only because of their huge fortune, new musical taste, but also because of their unique fashion style.
Robyn Rihanna Fenty, a name that has become too prominent on the music industry’s fashion “influencer” map with her top-notch dressing ability. With her rebellious blood from Barbados, Rihanna has become famous for her ability to balance all complex items, creating “unexpectedly unsuitable” combinations. The female singer has also been praised for being the initiator of 5 popular fashion trends such as “braless”, colorful fur, oversized fashion, slip dresses, socks and high heels. Therefore, Rihanna has appeared in many famous events and spread endless creative inspiration to the fashion-loving community.
However, her boyfriend, ASAP Rocky, is no less impressive. He is a character that always appears on the list of the most fashionable rappers today, praised by GQ as “The Most Beautiful Man in The World”. This title probably comes from his ability to coordinate street and high-end fashion items flexibly with the application of seemingly the most difficult items.
SIMILAR IN PATTERNS, COLORS AND ACCESSORIES
When appearing together in the media, the two often choose outfits that have many similarities in materials and colors to create similarities in their choice of outfits. For example, in her most recent appearance, Rihanna showed off her pregnant belly with the denim-on-denim trend with a two-piece plaid suit, combined with an impressive wool hat at Louis Vuitton’s Spring-Summer 2024 Ready-To-Wear show during Paris Fashion Week. Hand in hand with the female singer was ASAP Rocky in a rhinestone denim jacket and shorts of the same material, matching a wool hat, pearl sunglasses and Louis Vuitton boots.
Not only that, both have also proven to create their own personalities in joint photos by making the most of accessories. When debuting at Gucci’s show at Milan Fashion Week 2022, Rihanna and ASAP Rocky’s accessories made the fashion-loving public learn a new way of letting accessories be the main highlight. ASAP Rocky wore an all-black outfit including sneakers, leather pants, and a sweater; but did not forget to create a different effect with a stylish Gucci carry-on suitcase. The size of the suitcase was also chosen to fit the male singer’s body proportions and neutralized the entire black outfit to avoid confusion. In contrast to her boyfriend in choosing colors, Rihanna cleverly used an 18-karat white gold cross necklace and a metallic Egyptian-style metal hat to highlight the outfit, which included a black latex crop top, a fur coat, and black satin pants with a red dragon pattern.
DON’T FORGET TO HIGHLIGHT WITH CONTRASTING COLORS RIHANNA
Not only do they wear matching outfits or wear the same material and color, the A-list couple also have some seemingly unrelated appearances. However, if you pay attention, you can still see the harmony in accessories or the use of contrasting colors and shades to create harmony and stand out when standing next to each other.
At the 2023 Met Gala, Rihanna and ASAP Rocky even came up with a concept together to tell a story related to the theme of remembering Karl Lagerfeld. The “Where Have You Been” singer captured all eyes in a giant wedding dress made from 500 camellia petals custom-made by Valentino. Her boyfriend accompanied her with sophistication when recreating the late designer’s iconic look with a red plaid dress, black belt, black tie, short-sleeved shirt and jewelry from Maison Boucheron. However, ASAP Rocky layered the dress over a pair of baggy jeans to balance out his girlfriend’s oversized dress, giving both outfits a pop at the grand fashion event.
