Rihanna has never been one to play by the rules—especially when it comes to fashion. Ever since the ‘Diamonds’ singer made her debut in 2005, there hasn’t been quite a shortage of high-octane fashion moments from the cultural supernova. From classic noughties looks to her iconic full yellow Guo Pei Met Gala gown, Riri has always been ahead of the curve. And so when she announced her first pregnancy with A$AP Rocky in 2022, in an epic reveal that featured a hot pink knee length Chanel puffer jacket and multicoloured belly chains, it was clear that she was rewriting the rules of maternity style. Sure enough, a little over a month later she arrived at the Dior show in a sheer black lace babydoll dress that showed off her stomach and her lingerie.
During her second pregnancy, her fashion game remained at its high. Literally. She announced the good news to the world durning her iconic 2023 Super Bowl Halftime show, whilst suspended above the stadium in a custom red Loewe breastplate and matching jumpsuit. And so history repeated itself. Now well into her third pregnancy, Rihanna has become a seasoned pro at delivering a head-turning maternity style moment. And it had to be at an opportune moment—none other than the 2025 Met Gala—choosing a finely tailored custom Marc Jacobs ensemble to share the good news.
And just when we thought we’d seen it all, the Barbadian singer kept us on our toes. Attending the Smurfs movie premiere in Los Angeles, Riri turned heads in a lace trimmed Saint Laurent gown paired with a black leather jacket and chic sunglasses. But the real show stealers? Her sons RZA and Riot, who arrived at the carpet in head to toe custom Dior by Jonathan Anderson—miniature version of the looks shown at the designer’s debut menswear show for the house. Yes, fashion runs in this family.
Here, we dip into the archives to round up Rihanna’s best maternity looks.
