The star stepped out in Los Angeles wearing the internet-breaking designer’s take on a collegiate style staple.
Rihanna Test Drives Telfar’s Latest It-Item
If you want to gauge how buzzy a fashion label is, all you need to do is see what Rihanna’s worn from it. The musician-turned-mogul and her stylist, Jahleel Weaver, have an eye for talent and regularly showcase the best work from emerging brands. Every so often, Rihanna’s tastes align with the internet, and she selects an item that has already received a stamp of approval from millions online. Last night as she headed out to dinner in Los Angeles, the star opted for a white box pleat mini-skirt from Maximilian, matching Bottega Veneta bralette, and layers of gold chains. The undeniably sexy look was completed by a green velvet color-blocked hoodie from Telfar, the reigning king of viral fashion.
Clemens’ eye-catching purses have reinvigorated the handbag market with their accessible luxury and vibrant colors, but his range extends beyond accessories. One of his Fall 2020 collection standouts was this tongue-in-cheek take on the collegiate hoodie that reversed the brand’s logo and worked in luxurious materials you won’t find at the college bookstore. On the runway, the styling skewed sporty. Model Igor Klymenkov wore the hoodie zipped up and paired with logo-print patchwork sweats. Rihanna took things in a different direction, one that allowed for a flash of skin and an on-trend mini-skirt.
If you don’t have a piece of Telfar in your closet, you’re missing out. Clemens has mastered the art of the internet-breaking product drop, thanks to pieces that breathe new life into classics and are easy to dress up or down. Celebrities are passionate about the streetwise sensibility that Clemens brings to the table, and stars like Bella Hadid, Dua Lipa, and now Rihanna, illustrate how versatile his clothes can be. As exciting as celebrity street style can be, it’ll be fascinating to see how Telfar’s millions of online fants interpret the hoodies, too.
