Rihanna turned 38 on Friday, February 20, 2026, and marked the occasion with a surprise birthday dinner at Giorgio Baldi restaurant in Santa Monica, arranged by her partner, A$AP Rocky. While the celebration may have caught her off guard, one thing remained predictable, Rihanna never misses an opportunity to show off her fashion skills.

For a while now, Rihanna has shown a particular affinity for fur coats. She is known for consistently incorporating the textured outerwear into her wardrobe, often layering the pieces with different outfits. While fur has become something of a signature for the singer, no two appearances ever feel the same. For this birthday celebration, she stepped out in a rare vintage Gucci fur coat from Tom Ford’s Fall/Winter 1999 collection.

The vintage Gucci fur coat featured a mix of textures, with tiger-print sleeves from the shoulder down transitioning into soft, brown fur, covering the rest of the piece. She layered it over a sheer black floor-length dress and open-toe sandals. Her hair was styled in loose waves, parted down the centre.

A$AP Rocky remained faithful to his signature street-style. He wore a red-and-white checkered jacket layered over a white shirt, paired with tan trousers and black loafers. Accessories included a pair of Ray-Ban sunglasses.

This month has been full of celebrations for the couple. Earlier, they celebrated Rocky’s AWG Fashion Week show, followed by a romantic night out on Valentine’s Day, and now Rihanna’s birthday topped it all off.

London Fashion Week Autumn/Winter 2026 featured a notable event that. The front row of one of the key runway shows featured King Charles III, marking the first senior royal appearance at LFW since 2018. This rare attendance highlighted designers known for technical skill and cultural storytelling.

Joining the King were prominent figures from the fashion world, including Stella McCartney and Laura Weir, alongside cultural personalities Little Simz and Skepta. Their presence showed the event’s connection to fashion, music, and culture including new designers.

Observers noted the careful balance between modern design sensibilities and references that reflect heritage and cultural background.

This moment highlighted London Fashion Week as a platform for craftsmanship, design, and cultural influence, showing how front-row attendees can amplify a show’s impact.

Kendall Jenner was photographed in Los Angeles in a pair of classic shell-toe sneakers, the choice redirected attention to a design that defined mid-2010s street style. She paired the sneakers with casual pieces, reintroducing the black-and-white Superstar from Adidas.

Originally introduced in 1969, the Superstar was widely worn around 2015–2016, when minimalist sneaker styling dominated celebrity casual dressing. Jenner’s style reflects that same period neutral layers, casual tailoring, and clean proportions pointing showing the continued presence of simpler sneaker styling after several seasons of bulkier shapes.

Her styling keeps the focus on familiar wardrobe staples, allowing the recognizable shell toe and stripe detailing to hold the outfit. This mirrors current street-style trends, where archival sportswear remains visible in current street style.

Retro sneaker cycles are often driven by visibility rather than formal relaunches, and Jenner’s consistent casual look continues to influence casual styling trends. While recent seasons have largely centered on Samba variations across celebrity street style, her look redirects focus to another heritage design that previously defined everyday dressing.

Recent sightings of the Superstar reflect the continued use of classic everyday pieces. With celebrity styling still influencing casual fashion, the mid-2010s sneaker reference is appearing more frequently.
