Rihanna Turned Heads At Paris Fashion Week In A Gold Outfit
The “Disturbia” singer was one of the notable stars to make an appearance during Paris Fashion Week, kicking off the week by sitting front row at the Matières Fécales Spring/Summer 2027 show on September 28th.
For the occasion, Rihanna wore a dramatic bronzed-gold skirt suit covered in shimmering, tinsel-like strands that hung from the blazer and matching skirt. She paired the unconventional and more experimental ensemble with a sheer black bra underneath, adding an even edgier touch to the look.
She finished off the outfit with black curved-heel Christian Louboutin pumps, a black patent-leather bag and a chunky gold necklace.
Social Media Users React To Rihanna’s Look
While some fashion enthusiasts loved Rihanna’s ability to take a major style risk and thought she looked great for the show, others couldn’t get past the outfit’s unusual texture and metallic appearance.
Users compared the look to everything from a scrubber to other household materials, while others defended the singer and said she was one of the few people who could pull off such an interesting outfit.
“When your Brillo pad gets rusty,” commented an Instagram user.
“Is that tinsel?” asked another.
“Not sure if this is it,” wrote one fan, as another added, “Nope.”
“Looks like a rusted mop,” they continued.
“This look is terrible,” wrote a Reddit user, as another commented, “This looks like when you gather all the Christmas tinsel and stuff it in a box after you take it down. It doesn’t fit her shape at all.”
