Rihanna just made a stylish return to the red carpet, and it was a major moment.
The singer and fashion icon, 37, stepped out at the 2025 CFDA Awards on Monday night, marking her first red-carpet appearance since welcoming her daughter, Rocki Irish, with A$AP Rocky in September.
The event took place at the American Museum of Natural History in New York City, where the superstar arrived alongside Rocky, who was being honoured at the ceremony.
As per PEOPLE, Rihanna described her look as a “postpartum-forward” style, something she called both “timeless” and “effortless.”
She wore a sleek black Alaïa trench coat from the Spring/Summer 2026 collection, tied at the waist, layered over a black turtleneck. She paired it with flowing white pants tucked into heels, creating a simple yet striking look.
She and Rocky paused for sweet photos together before heading inside.
Rocky went classic in a Chanel suit with white cuffed sleeves. He added a butter-yellow V-neck sweater and cream Chanel shoes with black tips, plus layered jewelry, including vintage pieces and a diamond drop earring, giving his look a subtle flash.
The couple, who recently drew attention after Rocky referred to himself as a “loving husband” in an interview, matched effortlessly on the carpet.
The night was particularly meaningful for Rocky, who received this year’s Fashion Icon Award, an accolade Rihanna herself earned back in 2014.
Since becoming a dad, Rocky has spoken about how fatherhood has shifted his approach to style. He’s said his dad style is “way more focused,” moving from bold mixes to what he describes as a more “quiet luxury.”
He has also talked about saving clothing for his kids so that, in his words, they “won’t have to really try to figure it out too hard,” because his personal archive will be waiting for them.
With Rihanna making her red-carpet comeback in her signature cool fashion and Rocky being celebrated for his influence in style, the pair delivered a standout moment, one that feels like a fresh chapter for the parents of three.
