Rihanna made a grand entrance at the 2024 Fashion Awards at London’s Royal Albert Hall this week, accompanied by her beau, A$AP Rocky. The “Love on the Brain” hitmaker, 36, wore a striking periwinkle-and-black outfit designed by Christian Lacroix Madison, sparking mixed reactions from her fans on social media.
Her outfit featured a plush blue coat worn over a black strapless push-up top. The Grammy winner and style icon complemented her look with sheer black tights, long matching gloves, black pointed-toe heels from Saint Laurent adorned with sparkling crystals, and a large, furry teal hat with an asymmetrical design.

On Instagram, one fan who saw Rihanna's get-up wrote: "Just no… looks like she is wearing the pelt of the monsters inc character" as another added: "Drop the fur!!!!! Looks hilarious and tasteless." Someone else chimed in: "This is the one time I don’t agree with her fashion choice." An additional commenter noted: "her fashion decline needs to be studied" as one other replied: "they both look washed out."
Other fans, however, liked RiRi's style choices for the event. "I think it's a fun look," one wrote as another commented: "Love the look just no hat." Someone else noted: "love them both." On X (formerly Twitter), other stans of the Fenty Beauty mogul praised her look. One tweeted: "Rihanna in Christian Lacroix Fall 2002 Haute Couture at the British Fashion Awards — a true fashion goddess moment. The rich drama, the iconic archival pull, the way she wears it effortlessly... unmatched!"
The evening out was a memorable date night for the "We Found Love" singer and "Sundress" rapper, who have two young sons, RZA, age 2, and Riot, 16 months old. A$AP Rocky received the Culture Innovator Award at the star-studded Fashion Awards ceremony. Rihanna radiated with pride as she joined him on the red carpet, celebrating his achievement and posing for photos.
