Renowned American musician and fashion icon, Rihanna, recently opened up in an interview with the BBC about how she has rediscovered her love for fashionable attire after becoming a mother to her two sons.
The Grammy-winning singer revealed that after the birth of her second son last year, she found herself getting too comfortable in pyjamas and sweats. However, she expressed her joy at returning to dressing up and described it as empowering for women during the launch of her latest collaboration with Puma in London.
Rihanna candidly shared her experience of balancing style with motherhood, mentioning the challenges of prioritizing comfort over fashion with the arrival of her second child. Nevertheless, she emphasized the importance of reclaiming fashion as a form of personal rediscovery.
Attending the London launch just days after appearing at the Coachella festival in California, Rihanna expressed how reconnecting with fashion has allowed her to approach her wardrobe creatively and reignited her passion for self-expression.
The artist, who shares her sons with rapper A$AP Rocky, reflected on her journey from confidently wearing heels throughout her first pregnancy to embracing a more creative and comfortable style with her second.
Rihanna’s unconventional approach to maternity fashion, where she refused to wear traditional maternity clothes and instead focused on outfits that reflected her style, has been widely praised for challenging norms and celebrating individuality.
Despite her hiatus from music, Rihanna’s impact on the fashion and beauty industries continues to thrive through her brands Fenty Beauty and Savage x Fenty, leading her to achieve self-made billionaire status.
