The Council of Fashion Designers of America has selected Rihanna as this year’s CFDA Fashion Icon honoree. Rihanna showed up and showed out and reminded us why she is a fashion icon.
RiRi flaunted her sexy tattooed physique in a very risqué, custom design by Adam Selman for the event; and the ensemble was comprised of 216,000 Swarovski crystals and had matching gloves and a head wrap.
From her trend-setting hair styles — often enhanced with color — to her confident, bold, and sultry style, Rihanna is the epitome of a fashion muse. The CFDA and CFDA CEO, Steven Kolb, wrote …
“We are proud to present Rihanna with the CFDA Fashion Icon Award for her impact on the industry as fashion’s most exciting ambassador in recent memory. The record-breaking recording artist, actress, and fashion designer will be recognized for her contributions to the fashion industry as well as her philanthropic partnership with the M·A·C AIDS Fund’s Viva Glam campaign. The Fashion Icon Award is given to an individual whose style has made a significant impact on popular culture on an international stage. Rihanna joins the ranks of past winners such as Lady Gaga, Iman, Kate Moss, and Nicole Kidman.”
Congratulations Rihanna! The full CFDA Fashion Awards show and highlights from the red carpet will be available on CFDA.com and their YouTube Channel today. Check out more pics of RiRi and her see-through gown in the gallery. –joi pearson @joiapearson
