Rihanna, notorious for her edgy appearance paired with her adorable features (sweetest smile), truly epitomizes the whole good-girl-gone-bad style. Seeing as that’s the title of her third album, it’s only fitting. Nonetheless, she’s undeniably a fashion icon. At Sunday's VMA’s she not only had an unbelievable performance, but an unbelievable line-up of outfits, too. She carried out four different shows, which is like, unheard of, and killed each one. I could not stop drawling at her thigh-highs and unique layer techniques. Obviously she has a stylist who gives her a hand, and I am in the process of reaching who that crazy character is because I have to know. If I can’t locate a name and find that she styles her own looks I’ll be 1. shocked, and 2. envious of her talent as a human to be an artist, performer, and style icon?
Can you sense that she’s one of my role models?
The Opening Look
I understand that a lot of people don’t get the boot (Manolo Blahnik) and buckled skirt, but she looks badass. The fluffy shoes were kind of weird though…
The Do-rag
She carried on the fluffiness with her second act, wearing a fur lined bra. Personally, I would like to invest in one of those. I would never, however, invest in that do-rag, I would love to know what motivated her to wear that because it was kind of whack. This look had me thinking of the movie Step-Up, remember when she played in that for, like, two seconds?
Back to Black
The black-onesie-and-shoulder-cups-and-boots outfit was dope. It was super intense, yet weird, which is basically her aesthetic at this point; intense and weird. Did you notice that animal hanging on her shoulder?
Queen
Her final look was a masterpiece. Pure savagery with the use of that belt. The drapery was like an edgy, Thrasher version of Dior. Raise your hand if you feel that…
