Rihanna often takes to the stage in raunchy outfits and fishnet stockings. But for her debut fashion collection, Rihanna has gone for a more modest look. The 23-year-old designed a capsule collection for Emporio Armani including lingerie, jeans and t-shirts.

A spokesperson said: ‘Hugely talented and extremely feminine, Rihanna is known for her amazing verve and incredible energy – qualities which make her the perfect choice to project and interpret the youthful, modern and captivating spirit of Emporio Armani Underwear and Armani Jeans.‘ ‘Positive with a slightly rock feel, fabulously sexy with a strong masculine edge.’

The collection includes two T-shirts, two pairs of jeans, a black leather biker jacket and a bag. One of the T-shirts feature an emblem that combines Rihanna’s ‘R’ logo with the Emporio Armani eagle. The other, in a looser fit, features the outline of the singer’s face over an animal print background. The same mottled effect is repeated on the bucket-backpack in canvas with eco leather trim and pendant charm in branded metal. The jeans are available in two cuts, skinny or Rihanna’s favourite – a ‘boyfriend’ style but with a tight leg.

Both come in blue stretch and washed black denim. To complete the look, the bandana belt the singer loves to wear on occasions as a hair band. The underwear is ultra feminine, for everyday wear and very reasonably priced. The lace sets are available in two colours – cobalt blue and pearl grey. Lightweight brasieres or more constructed bras sculpt the body perfectly.

To team with thongs, briefs and camisoles also come in microfibre and lace. ‘Rihanna for Emporio Armani’ is scripted on the straps and a small cameo of her face, the label and embossed logo feature on the fastening at the back. The line will available in shops worldwide from the middle of November.
