Is Rihanna gradually taking over the fashion world? Evidently so. Over the last couple of years we have witnessed the singer get more involved in the fashion world as she collaborates with a large number of brands.

Collaborating with Stance, Rihanna released a sock collection promoting ‘individuality and the strength of being unique’. She also became creative director of Puma, instantly increasing the brands sale numbers by designing: a line of fur slides, that was immediately sold out once released; futuristic trainers in multi colours which were sported by a large number of celebrities/bloggers; and a clothing line that represents the modern changes and evolution of fashion itself.

What else is expected of a fashion icon like herself right?

Well as the first ever black ambassador of Dior, Rihanna is dipping more into the world of design as she collaborates with the French fashion house, launching her line of futuristic sunglasses simply labeled as ‘Rihanna’.

The sunglasses made their first appearance on the singers Instagram a while ago giving us all a sneak peek of what’s expected from this collaboration but fortunately for us, it is finally here!

Commenting on the inspirations behind this collection, Rihanna named La Forge from Star Trek as her main inspiration, stating: “I’ve always been obsessed with his eyewear, and when I got to Dior and saw all the materials I could play with, it all just came together.”

During this process Rihanna worked with Dior eyewear designer Mathieu Jamin who described the sunglasses frames as, “really strong and something we don’t have in the collection, so it’s unique”, all according to WWD.
