Rihanna Steps Out In NYC Wearing A Fur Outfit While Supporting A$AP Rocky's 'SNL' Performance
This weekend, one of pop culture's most trending couples was in New York City, as A$AP Rocky was the musical guest on Saturday Night Live, releasing his album that same weekend. Supporting her partner and the father of her children, the "Umbrella" singer made an appearance in the Big Apple, stepping out in her signature street style, which is known to combine all sorts of elements into one outfit.
On Saturday night, Rihanna appeared in Manhattan wearing an ensemble with several layers, including a large, fluffy white-gray fur coat. The coat had a unique lapel made from a dark grey fabric topped with a different shade of brown fur. Underneath, she had on a beige and navy blue sports jacket, which she paired with a long, black lace skirt. For accessories, she had on some tall heeled suede boots that were two-toned, with one half being black and the other a light brown.
Given she was in NYC, Rihanna also wore a dark blue Yankees hat, and completed her look with a chunky gold necklace worn with a bedazzled chain underneath. You can see pictures of the look here!
Fans React To Rihanna's Outfit On Social Media
Once pictures of the pop singer's outfit were shared on social media, fans, fashion critics, and other internet users quickly started weighing in on it through platforms like Instagram, Reddit, and more.
Rihanna's street fashion tends to spark some mixed reactions, as she's been upping her game in the way she explores different colors and fabric combinations, which pleases some fashion lovers but displeases others, something they continued to express this time around.
"Who styles her?" asked an Instagram user.
"Tacky, girl," commented another.
One critic wrote that "she looks terrible," as another noted her expensive-looking jackets were "despicable."
No matter what the internet says, the 37-year-old and her styling team seemingly continue to march to the beat of their own drum, and we'll be curious to see what other outfits she has in store for 2026.
