Add this to her growing list of vintage grails.
Rihanna Steps Out With One of Fashion’s Buzziest (and Hard to Get) Bags
If Rihanna wants it, Rihanna gets it! Last night, the superstar was spotted in Beverly Hills rocking one of fashion’s buzziest (and hard-to-get) collaborations. Her whole ensemble was sporty-chic: a navy striped Adidas tracksuit, an Esso trucker hat, and strappy flip-flop sandals from her own label, Fenty. But it was her oversized white bowling bag that caught our eye. Could it be the Prada and Adidas collab?
Back in 2019, the two labels re-created Adidas’s signature Superstar low-tops in a luxurious leather, as well as revamped Prada’s iconic bowler bag. The shape was first released in spring 2000, but the collaboration lent it a sportier twist. Both the bag and shoe were released as a bundle priced at over $3,000, and only 700 bundles were made. They sold out almost instantly, though the sneakers and bag continue to float around on various resale sites (on eBay, one seller currently asks over $1,500 for the bag).
Being Rihanna, however, the hard-to-get nature of this collaboration was clearly no issue. But it adds to her growing list of vintage grails. Lately she’s been casually wearing the most rare runway items, whether it’s a Tom Ford-era Gucci jean or an archival Chanel tweed coat. Why wouldn’t she own the most covetable sportswear collab, too?
