At the 2015 Met Gala, Rihanna made a fashion statement by wearing a stunning cape created by Chinese designer, Guo Pei. The cape was so large that it required multiple assistants to help her navigate the red carpet with grace and ease.

Rihanna, the well-known music superstar, has gone beyond her music career and accomplished numerous successes. She recently made history by being the first black woman to represent the fashion brand Dior. Rihanna shared her enthusiasm about this chance in an MTV interview, stating that it was not only a remarkable accomplishment for herself but also an important milestone for her culture and young girls of all races.

Last week, Dior announced that they have chosen Rihanna, a 27-year-old singer, as the new face of their fourth Secret Garden campaign. The brand has previously worked with models like Daria Strokus, Melissa Stasiuk, and Xiao Wen Ju, as well as actresses including Jennifer Lawrence, Natalie Portman and Marion Cotillard, all of whom are also brand ambassadors for Dior. Rihanna expressed her appreciation for being selected by Dior saying, “It’s very special for me as a woman to feel beautiful, sophisticated and eternally fashionable.”

The talented artist who brought us the hit song FourFiveSeconds is about to make her modeling debut for a renowned French fashion brand. Although she has graced the covers of several magazines, including Vogue, this will be her first time walking the runway for this specific label. She has previously modeled for other famous brands like Balmain and Emporio Armani. In fact, she was even bestowed with the title of Style Icon of 2014 by the Council of Fashion Designers of America.

According to Women’s Wear Daily, Dior’s upcoming campaign will be shot by photographer Steven Klein at the Palace of Versailles in Paris. Both print and film versions are expected to be released for public viewing in the spring. For further news on the topic, follow journalist Tre’Vell Anderson on Twitter at @TrevellAnderson.
