Rihanna’s style has been the subject of much attention at the Crop Over Festival in Barbados, her home country, where she made an appearance after five years. Her custom-made ensemble, adorned with gold and bronze jewels, not only exuded luxury but also beautifully highlighted her real post-partum body.
Since welcoming her son RZA in May 2022, Rihanna has been open about accepting her post-partum body and its changes. While many celebrities have traditionally prioritized showcasing a post-baby bounce-back, Rihanna confidently embraces her own shape and style, challenging traditional beauty standards. This approach aligns with the brand message of FENTY BEAUTY, known for its inclusive product range and model choices that cater to diverse skin tones.
Rihanna’s attitude at the carnival likely resonated with many mothers struggling with post-partum body changes. She’s a pioneer in promoting body positivity through fashion across all stages of pregnancy and childbirth. However, on occasion, like during fashion week off-runway or event photo calls, she opts for oversized silhouettes and voluminous outerwear to cover her waist.
The new definition of “beauty” is subjective and multifaceted. Rihanna’s free-spirited fashion choices are captivating and will undoubtedly continue to be a source of inspiration.
