Rihanna debuted her second pregnancy in a custom red jumpsuit.
The jumpsuit she wore at the February 12, 2023, Super Bowl LVII halftime show was a Loewe creation designed especially for her by Jonathan Anderson. She wore it unzipped so you could see her baby bump covered in a red catsuit with a sculpted bandeau. She looked incredible. And speaking of incredible, let's review some of her maternity outfits from her first pregnancy!
Check out the photo shoot Rihanna did in 2022 when she was pregnant with her first baby.
This was for Vogue in April 2022, when Rihanna was pregnant with her first child. The photos were taken by renowned photographer Annie Leibovitz. Rihanna is featured wearing exquisite clothing that does nothing to try to hide her pregnancy. Instead, it celebrates the changes in her body and showcases her glorious belly.
This was for the cover.
She dazzled in a red lace bodysuit and matching heels. There is so much to like about this image. But what I like most is that she looks so proud and confident. She shared this image on April 12, 2022, writing, “our lil fashion killa on da cover of VOGUE!! .”
Lookin’ all cute and pinktastic.
This is something she would wear when she’s not pregnant, so why shouldn’t she wear it while pregnant as well? The pink bra top and pink jeans look great with the tan jacket, and that pink fox is a fun and funny addition.
One her most showstopping maternity looks.
RiRi showed off her gorgeous baby bump during her first pregnancy in a beautiful black sheer gown at Beyoncé and Jay-Z's 2022 Oscars after-party. "Me and my date for Oscar Gold Party #bump22," the singer wrote on Instagram.
She wore lingerie to the Dior show at Paris Fashion Week.
For the Dior Womenswear Fall/Winter 2022/2023 show on March 1,2022, Rihanna wore a sheer number from the French design house's pre-fall 2022 collection. She accessorized with a leather coat worn off the shoulder and layered necklaces.
Looking all peachy and stuff.
On February 28, 2022, for the Off-White Womenswear Fall/Winter 2022/2023 winter show in Paris, Rihanna wore a peach leather dress made by the Italian label. To keep herself from getting chilly, she topped the dress with a shearling coat made by Diesel.
Peek-a-boo, we see you!
This photo was taken while RiRi was in Italy for Milan Fashion Week on February 25, 2022. She looks stunning as per usual, but how fun is the peek-a-boo detail on her dress? It shows off some baby bump skin, and it's lovely.
The lady wore latex to Gucci.
Rihanna had a front-row seat at the Milan Fashion Week Gucci Fall/Winter 2022/23 show on February 25, 2022, in Milan, Italy. She wore a latex and lace crop top with low-slung dragon-emblazoned pants, a fluffy lavender coat, and a headdress.
She shimmered at a Fenty Beauty and Fenty Skin event.
To celebrate her Fenty lines, she attended an event at Goya Studios on February 11, 2022, wearing shimmering designs by The Attico. She was a vision in green and purple sequin strands.
Check out Little Ri Riding Hood.
When RiRi made a surprise visit to the opening of her Savage X Fenty store in Westfield Culver City in mid-February, 2022, she looked like a modern-day Little Red Riding Hood. She wore a custom Alaia hooded trench coat as a dress and Fenty sandals.
Her approach to maternity style hasn't actually changed her style.
On February 11, 2022, Rihanna posted a series of photos of herself, and British fashion designer and illustrator Hayden Williams kind of summed it all up with a comment that he left. "Rih said, keep ya maternity wardrobe….imma just wear my regular fashions love ," Hayden wrote.
She has a way with accessories.
She captioned a series of photos she posted on February 9, 2022, "all black everything ." Notice how she wore layered necklaces under her top instead of over it. It works, and the top kind of keeps them from getting in her way.
She's funny!
Since February is Black History Month, she wrote, "how the gang pulled up to black history month," when she shared some pictures on February 2, 2022. It's great that she's documenting her growing belly. And we're all lucky that she's sharing some of her journey with us.
And she can draw!
She doesn't just draw attention, she can actually draw. While enjoying dinner at César Paris Restaurant, Rihanna drew the profile of a nude pregnant woman on a plate and then posed with her masterpiece. She was wearing a casual outfit for her night out that had her belly on full display.
She celebrated her birthday while pregnant.
On February 20, 2022, the singer, actress, fashion designer, and businesswoman celebrated her 34th birthday in style. For the occasion, she wore a fuzzy blue coat over a matching sheer belly-baring button-down shirt and a micro mini.
Her pregnancy-reveal photos are refreshing.
Instead of going the over-the-top produced and styled way that so many celebrities go when revealing their baby bumps for the first time, Rihanna opted for a more street photography style. Miles "Diggzy" Diggs, the photographer who took the pictures, shared his joy on Instagram on February 1, 2022:
"Still Speechless ☁️ So much love for you @badgalriri ! You are one of a kind. To be blessed with this opportunity is something I never could’ve dreamt of. Can’t wait to see you flourish in this next chapter called Motherhood ❤️."
Her baby bump looked all pretty in pink.
The photos showcased Rihanna's growing belly as it nonchalantly popped out of a bright pink 1996 vintage Chanel puffer coat. The coat has these great embellished gold buttons and looks great with the necklaces the mom-to-be is wearing.
Days before her first pregnancy reveal, she kept her belly covered.
Just days before she went public with her first pregnancy, she was photographed in New York wearing a baggy sports jacket, and no one looking at her had a clue that she was covering up a baby bump.
No one could tell she was pregnant when she wore this big orange coat.
On January 26, 2022, Rihanna was photographed out and about in New York while wearing a bright orange coat, camouflage pants, and heels. No one thought anything of it because it's a look that's totally in keeping with her style. Sure, she wears revealing clothes sometimes, but she also wears a lot of oversized clothing.
