Rihanna And Manolo Blahnik Are Collaborating On A Shoe Collection
We’re already counting down the days until May 5
You may have thought Rihanna had her plate full, following a brand new album launch, world tour in the works and debut collection as creative director at Puma — but the songstress shows no signs of stopping her bid for full domination of the music and fashion worlds. Today, the singer joined forces with iconic shoemaker Manolo Blahnik for a collaborative Spring 2016 shoe collection.
Riri has long been a fan of Blahnik — often seen sporting his sexy heels on and off the red carpet. Now she’s collaborated with the shoe mastermind himself on a capsule collection called “Denim Desserts.” The 6-piece range will feature different styles from strappy mules to sexy boots (which Rihanna describes as “trouble”) all made of denim, sequins and artisan embroidery inspired by the singer’s hand tattoos, and prices will range from Dhs3,287 to Dhs14,674.
If you’re one of the lucky women to snag a pair from the upcoming collection, you’ll want to watch your back. “The day I see a woman in the street wearing my shoes… I am sorry for that woman because I’m going to literally run after her, shouting, ‘Stop! Selfie! Who are you? Where did you get them?’ I’m going to have a moment!'” the songstress said in an official statement. Actually, we wouldn’t mind taking a selfie (or a shoe-fie?) with our favorite bad gal.
Unfortunately, the styles will only be available to purchase on May 5 in Manolo Blank stores in London, New York and Hong Kong, so we suggest booking a holiday in early May, pronto as we have no doubt that they will sell out just as fast as her Rihanna x Puma sneakers — start lining up!
