Rihanna, ever the fashion icon whether gracing red carpets or grabbing dinner at Giorgio Baldi’s, opted for a cozy yet chic ensemble during a charitable visit to the Boys & Girls Club in Harlem on Thursday. Joined by her partner A$AP Rocky, the Fenty Beauty mogul showcased her generous spirit as the couple distributed free Puma gear to local children in his hometown.
She wore a grey Patou hoodie and matching peplum skirt, each priced at $1,200, crafted from a luxurious blend of wool and cashmere. Patou, a storied fashion house founded in 1914 by Jean Patou, has evolved into a full-fledged lifestyle brand offering couture, ready-to-wear, swimwear, accessories, and fragrances.
Rihanna layered her outfit with a light grey fur jacket from Loewe and accessorized with striking black and yellow Bottega Veneta sunglasses. Her footwear of choice? Grey knit ‘Veneda’ boots by Amina Muaddi, known for their snug, sock-like fit and signature fluted heels, retailing at $1,415.
Fans were quick to praise her look on Instagram, with @ravey_baby exclaiming, “Love love love this entire look👏🏾,” and @teopatra calling her “Our modest queen.” Rihanna’s humility shone through as she personally handed out gear to children in need.
It’s heartening to witness Rihanna and A$AP Rocky leveraging their fame and fortune to uplift their community. With success comes the power—and responsibility—to give back. So, what’s your take on their philanthropic fashion moment: Hot or Hmm?
