Rihanna launches own label for LVMH
Robyn Rihanna Fenty — who you probably know under her shorter Rihanna or Riri monikers — has just revealed her high-end venture with LVMH group. The line is soberly called Fenty and the singer and actress is now the official CEO and creative director for the newborn label. Her sartorial ready-to-wear is a genre bending mix of styles and materials. It plays with volumes, shapes, and identities and really is reminiscent of the artist’s macrocosm. “Some days I want to be submissive, many days I’m completely in charge and most days I feel like being both…” the interpret of Man Down reveals. She even goes on, saying how she finds inspiration, and it sure leaves no room for the shadow of a doubt : ”I am my own muse”. The official webshop for both Fenty and Fenty Beauty, under LVMH, are announced for May 29.
N.B. Fenty is the first line to be launched, from scratch, by LVMH since 1987 and Christian Lacroix.
