Month: May 2023

The party doesn’t start until Rihanna walks in. In a typical RiRi move, her and ASAP Rocky arrived fashionably late to this year’s Met Gala. But rest assured, the singer and Fenty beauty mogul didn’t keep us waiting for nothing—her Met Gala glam was worth it. 

For her makeup look, Rihanna dipped into old Hollywood glamour, sporting a bold red lip and a bouffant hairstyle (under all the white florals she’s enshrouded with). Rihanna’s bold lips are a departure from many of the looks seen on the carpet tonight—while we saw tons of pink pops, eye jewels, and micro-bangs, the star kept her makeup simple and classic. 

Though the star accessorized with false eyelash sunglasses and white florals everywhere, this kind of timeless red lip is the perfect way to end a night dedicated to Karl Lagerfeld, a man who is most famous for his designs for Chanel. If Lagerfeld’s legacy were reinterpreted into a beauty look, we’re pretty sure that a bold red lip, the French girl staple, would be the centerpiece. As usual, Rihanna wins—and we’re not surprised at all.

I’ve been excited about this year’s Met Gala since the moment last year’s ended. Now that the day has finally arrived, I have no qualms saying that the event has truly outdone itself. This year’s unparalleled red carpet looks paid homage to Karl Lagerfeld, one of fashion’s most prolific designers.

That said, it’s not a real party until Rihanna arrives—and she was definitely fashionably late as the Met Gala’s very last arrival (by a long shot). She skipped last year’s Met Gala because she gave birth to her firstborn a mere 11 days after the event, but this year she was thankfully able to walk the steps again. Now pregnant with her second child, Rihanna showed off her baby bump much to the delight of fans. Scroll down to see Rihanna’s 2023 Met Gala look.
