Never one to shy away from straight-of-the-runway fashions or sky-high hemlines, the Barbadian beauty rocks one of Balmain’s highly coveted Fall 2010 sequin minidresses on the cover of Elle, along with a half-blonde, half-brunette.
Rihanna’s sightseeing dress, the first dress, is this Lucretia Silk Maxi Dress by Diane von Furstenberg:
It retails for $695.00 at Net-A-Porter.com.
The shorter, bell-sleeved version, the Diane von Furstenberg Tabalah Dress, is available for $425.00 at Shopbop.com:
Diane von Furstenberg Tabalah Dress, $425.00
Rihanna’s long-sleeved tie-dye dress is a bit harder to find and identify, but I did find this maxi dress (sans the sleeves) with a very similar print:
Patterson J. Kincaid Santa Monica Long Dress, $158.00
Rihanna has had a drastic journey from unknown Barbados girl to international household name and her image and fashion sense has gone through a change that has been every bit as radical. Since 2005, the Barbadian pop princess has morphed from a stone-washed-denim-skirt-and-long-hair-weave-wearing teenager to a high fashion diva with a punk edge; one of the greatest transformations in music style history.
