Lift Me Up! Last night while all eyes were on all the phenomenal cinematic talent, our eyes were fixated on Rihanna. Rihanna delivered not only a soul-turning performance of her original Oscar-nominated song (what a flex to say) but also served not one but three looks throughout the entire night. We mean, that’s expected from the fashion girl. And these weren’t just any looks — these were three custom looks from three of the top design ateliers in the industry. Fashion icon tings only.
She started the night walking the champagne carpet in a sleek brown leather Alaïa gown. As of late, many of her big moment looks have been with Alaïa (see; the red puffer coat at the Super Bowl and her Vogue baby bump announcement cover) as she and Creative Director Pieter Mulier have developed quite a friendship. The look (below) features Alaïa’s signature rips on the side and quintessentially combines a bustier with the trained skirt. All allowing the bump to shine. Then there was, of course, an outfit change for her performance, followed by another ensemble change for the duration of the ceremony.
Below, get into Rih’s three-part fashion slayage at the 2023 Oscars.
