The Fenty founder will return to the music scene performing at the Superbowl halftime show on 12^th February – her first show in seven years. UK fans will be able to watch the huge cultural event on either ITV1 or Sky Sports where it will be broadcast live at 1:30 am on Monday the 13^th February.

After her return to the stage that it’s rumoured she’ll announce a tour starting this year to promote her next album. Although we’re not sure when Rihanna will drop the dates, a music insider has told the Sun, “She has her North American dates ready to announce for 2023 after the Super Bowl and it will be a matter of time before European dates are announced for 2024.” Her last tour for 2016’s Anti had over 71 dates so we are hoping it’s just as expansive this time. According to the insider, “Her plan is to set up mini residencies in major cities rather than visit multiple places”.

Diehard fans of the singer will be thrilled to hear that the tour will include both new songs and old favourites. An insider told The Sun, “She’s been working overtime on every element of the show. The list of songs that made the cut are pretty comprehensive and touch on every era of Rihanna including the new one she’s about to embark on.”

Rihanna’s new album has been in the works for some time now. Although the multifaceted queen put her music career on hold to focus on her businesses Fenty Beauty and Savage x Fenty and her new motherhood it seems like the album was coming together behind the scenes. Back in 2019, she told Vogue that the album would be reggae-inspired whilst last year at the Savage x Fenty show she told us its sound would be unexpected.

Also on the cards is the release of the much-anticipated Rihanna documentary that has over 1,000 hours of footage! The project has been six and a half years in the making and has documented the rise of her billion-dollar empire Fenty to her experiences of new motherhood. With it being recently sold to Amazon hopefully we’ll be able to feast our eyes on it soon.

Director of the project Peter Berg, responsible for the popular sports drama Friday Night Lights said, “I’ve loved it. It’s such an enriching experience, I don’t really care how long it takes.” Those who wish to get a deeper look into the megastar’s life will also be elated to hear that Berg called it “more a character study than a music film” 

If you’re green with envy over the look Rihanna posted on her Instagram to advertise her Superbowl appearance – fear not. We’ve pieced together a look inspired by the fierce fit with a chartreuse fluffy coat, black catsuit, chunky silver jewellery, and strappy heels.

The post All The Deets On Rihanna’s Upcoming Album And Tour appeared first on Voir Fashion.

The Fashion Awards is consistently ranked as one of the most seminal nights for fashion lovers – and last night’s ceremony lived up to expectations. Hosted in London’s Royal Albert Hall, the event brought together an extremely stylish and iconic guest-list including the likes of Julia Roberts, Giorgio Armani, Donatella Versace, Rihanna and Naomi Campbell (though that’s to name just a few).

Rihanna stole the show with her all-green ensemble – which, as expected, was all from her own clothing line, FENTY. Her halterneck ‘Light Matcha’ satin bustier dress was elegantly paired with matching gloves and a Gerogette sheer coat embellished with diamonds draping gently on her back. It comes as no surprise, therefore, that FENTY picked up an award for ‘Best Urban Luxe Brand’ last night presented to her by Tyler the Creator and Janet Jackson.

“Thank you for believing in me as a young black woman and my talent,” she said, accepting the award. “Thank you for giving me the opportunity to prove what I love to do”.

Naomi Campbell was also a prize winner last night for ‘Fashion Icon Award’ and hence became the first woman of colour to ever receive the accolade. She thanked her mother primarily, stating, “whatever success I have is a testament to you”. The sheer embellished Alexander McQueen gown worn last night was just one of the many looks she has effortlessly pulled off over the course of her 3-decade-long career.

Adut Akech took the title of ‘Model of the Year’ and in her acceptance speech, the South Sudanese-Australian model stated “This award is bigger than me; it’s bigger than a title in the industry. It’s for every young girl or boy refugees around the world in a tough position who are unheard or unseen”. Her emerald green Valentino dress worn last night featuring a thigh-high split and statement bow looked like it was picked directly from the Fashion Houses’ latest Haute Couture collection showcased in Beijing this November which featured big bows and bare shoulders.

Other favourites from the night include Kaia Gerber in a monochrome Loewe ensemble. A black bralette paired with a lace white skirt, taken from the SS20 collection channelled a fresh Gen-Z aesthetic.

Host, Tracee Ellis Ross also wore Loewe, in particular a white handkerchief dress from Jonathan Anderson’s spring/summer 2020 collection. The layered white piece featured a geometric mismatch hemline paired with a chunky white necklace.

Nicole Scherzinger (frontrunner of the recently reformed girl-group ‘The Pussycat Dolls’) made a stellar appearance with her all black and heavily embellished Julien Macdonald dress.

Supermodel Neelam Kaur Gill wore a Balmain geometric patterned bodice and feather skirt. Victoria Secret model Leomie Anderson wore an elegant Armani gown laced with an array of colourful gems (pictured together).

Supermodel Winnie Harlow, who was a nominee for Model of the Year, stunned in Vivienne Westwood with a pink ruffled dress which protruded on either side and featured heavy ruching.

Rosie Huntington Whitely wore a shimmering halterneck gown as she walked down the red-carpet by Bottega Veneta (the designer picked up 4 awards last night).

Adwoa Aboah recipient of the ‘Model of the Year Award’ in 2017 and was nominated again this year wore a floral bodycon by John Galliano.
