It's been less than eight months since Rihanna gave birth to a baby boy, and though we don't know too much about the little one she now shares with partner A$AP Rocky, we do know that becoming a mother hasn't changed the singer's style one bit. Just as we admired her maternity style, we admire her looks postpartum, too.
Of course, over the past several months, Rihanna has spent a lot of time staying in — more than usual. That's typical of a woman who just became a mom and wants to spend as much time as possible with her baby boy. But on the occasions she has stepped out, she's killed it in the fashion department every single time. Not that we'd ever expect any less from the Fenty founder herself. And now, with the 2023 Super Bowl halftime performance and a return to music in her sights, we have a feeling we might be seeing more of her in the next few months.
Here are Rihanna's best looks since becoming a mom. We can't wait to see what she wears next!
Golden Globes Glamour
Rihanna kicked off 2023 by making a rare appearance at the Golden Globes on January 10, with partner A$AP Rocky on her arm. Her newest song, "Lift Me Up" from the Black Panther: Wakanda Forever soundtrack, was up for for an award. While the emotional track didn't clinch a win, RiRi did score some major fashion points with her glamorous look. She stunned in a dramatic black Schiaparelli Couture gown featuring a voluminous velvet cape wrap with puff sleeves. She topped off her look with a jaw-dropping Cartier drop diamond necklace and earrings to match. Nailed it!
Keeping It Casual
In October 2022, Rihanna was spotted heading to the recording studio wearing one of her signature looks, which included an oversized jersey and jeans. Of course, it makes sense to keep it this casual for just a trip to the studio, but she still looked cool like only she can.
Another Jersey Look
At this point, it might be safe to say that this is Rihanna's recording studio uniform. Here, she's wearing a different jersey, but she's glammed up a bit more with lip gloss and sunglasses — even at night. Look at those heels!
Ready To Party
We didn't get many photos of Rihanna out at this party she attended in early September 2022, but the ones we did see are proof that this mama has still got it! From her glam hairstyle to her jewelry and her all-black outfit, she pulled out all the stops for this one.
Shorts & a Tee
Here, Rihanna is in New York City, wearing an outfit that most of us are seen wearing after having kids — jeans and a graphic tee. But since this is Rihanna we're talking about, of course she's wearing thigh-high boots and bright red lipstick to take it from an outfit to a full-blown look.
Shopping Outfit
How is it that Rihanna can wear an oversized sweatshirt and still look like she's pulling off high fashion? This is what she wore to go shopping at Bristol Farms in Los Angeles in early October 2022, and we're loving the simplicity of this casual look (not to mention the fact that she looks so happy).
After Party Glam
This photo was taken when Rihanna was at a Rolling Loud after party that was hosted by A$AP Rocky. Of course, she had to show up to support her man! And she looked good doing it, wearing a ruched bodycon dress and matching cardigan to keep warm on a chilly September night.
All in Blue
We're kind of into the baggy shirt and jeans look, especially since these two blues are not exactly the same shade. The top is oversized but cut into a fringe, giving this otherwise casual outfit a bit of edge — we wouldn't be surprised if this turns into a trend!
Accessories Everywhere
In mid-July, Rihanna was spotted at the Lollapalooza festival in Paris wearing this ensemble. Again, a totally casual outfit that she dressed up with tons of accessories — this is quickly becoming her new uniform, and as moms, we totally get it. Few people could pull this off as well as RiRi does, though.
Birthday Party Glam
To celebrate A$AP Rocky's 34th birthday in early October 2022, Rihanna threw together this completely glam look. Dressed in a black sheer dress and matching pointy-toe shoes, she did not come to play for her man's big day. We're loving these side bangs on her, too!
Movie Premiere Ready
Given that Rihanna has a song on the Black Panther: Wakanda Forever soundtrack, it was only right that she appear at the movie's November 2022 premiere — and boy, did she make an entrance on the red carpet. In a green gown and matching arm-length gloves, she has officially made her triumphant return to Hollywood, and we can't wait to see what she gives us next.
Miami Heat
In December 2022, Rihanna turned heads in Miami when she stopped by Story night club in this glittery two-piece outfit that had her looking like a disco ball. It's the perfect combo of comfort and glitz for the new mom as she enjoyed a night out.
