Rihanna with her bump out and four Louis Vuitton bags is a seriously iconic lewk

Almost as soon as the news was revealed earlier this year that Pharrell Williams would be the new Men's Creative Director for Louis Vuitton, the internet went into *full* meltdown wondering what his vision for the storied French fashion house might look like. Some looked back to his collabs with LV in 2004 and 2008 that sold out at lightning speed; others pointed to his hypey Billionaire Boys Club brand, and some even dreamt up theories of how he might honour the aesthetic of his predecessor, the late, great Virgil Abloh.

Well, we're here to tell you that the wait is almost over, as Pharrell's debut LV show is scheduled to take place in just a few days' time (*immediately adds 20th June to diary*). And it looks like we're in for a BIG treat, because Pharrell has just teased his first collection and unveiled the new face of the brand: the one and only Rihanna. Yes, really.

Sharing a post on Instagram, Pharrell revealed a billboard of the 35-year-old singer for Louis Vuitton Men's SS24 campaign – and she's looking more stunning than ever. Heavily pregnant with her second child, Riri appears as the ultimate diva in the image, going topless in an open leather shirt-jacket with her bump proudly on show, while also carrying a take-away coffee and FOUR multi-coloured monogram Louis Vuitton bags. I mean, could you *get* any more fabulous!? We think not.

Some are saying this miiiiiight just be a hint that Riri could actually walk in Pharrell's show next week. Which would obviously be ICONIC – but we don't want to get ahead of ourselves.

For now, we're delighted enough with seeing a brand new Rihanna pregnancy 'fit, and such a fab one at that. Because, truly, no one does bump dressing better than Riri. Never have we ever wished harder that pregnancy lasted longer than 9 months...
