Rihanna Roars in Alaïa’s Tiger-Print Winter 2026 Look
Rihanna kept her streak going. Following weekend appearances in Miu Miu, Vaquera, and Saint Laurent to celebrate A$AP Rocky’s new album, Rihanna returned to the streets in another bold look, continuing her bold fashion choices.
On January 20, 2026, she was seen in New York City wearing pieces from Alaïa’s Winter 2026 collection, featuring a wool-blend tiger-print coat and coordinating tiger-print heels. The ensemble included a brown scarf draped over the coat.

The look was accessorized with sunglasses, red lipstick, and layered gold and diamond chokers. The coat and heels were reported to be valued at approximately $7,050 and $1,850, respectively.
Rihanna’s appearance highlighted the resurgence of tiger and animal prints across fashion streets and runways in 2026. Vogue noted her tiger-print heels as part of an ’80s-inspired animal-print revival, distinct from more traditional leopard or cheetah prints.
