Rihanna

In 2017, Rihanna became the embodiment of avant-garde at the Met Gala, donning a dress by Comme des Garçons. Her dress, a masterpiece by Rei Kawakubo, perfectly aligned with the night’s theme, “Rei Kawakubo/Comme des Garçons: Art of the In-Between,” featuring an elaborate design of layered floral fabrics that mimicked deconstructed petals.

This intricate array of silk organza and tulle, along with flowers, petals, and ribbons, was a bold statement of art, taking an hour for model Anna Cleveland to put on. A powerhouse in music, film, and fashion, Rihanna’s chart-toppers like “We Found Love” and ventures like Fenty Beauty display her versatile talent and entrepreneurial spirit.
