It’s hard to overstate Bottega Veneta’s popularity among celebrities. Since designer Daniel Lee joined the house in 2018, his minimalist luxury has become ubiquitous in fashion circles and among performers attuned to the latest runway trends. No one fits that description better than Rihanna, the musician-turned-lingerie-mogul who is always ahead of the curve. With her third Savage x Fenty runway show set to premiere on Amazon Prime this Friday, Rihanna has begun making the rounds to promote its release. She hit up The Westin Bonaventure hotel for its Los Angeles premiere in the ultimate Bottega status symbol: a custom look.
The crystal-embellished mini dress and matching hoodie Rihanna wore was completely in line with the sexy and streetwise look she and stylist Jahleel Weaver have cultivated, while still reflecting Lee’s pared-down aesthetic. Sure, the dress was covered in sparkle, but its clean lines, halter cut, and saturated chartreuse were undeniable Lee signatures.
She’s far from the only star to request a one-of-a-kind Bottega piece. In August, Tracee Ellis Ross took to Instagram to praise Lee for the “feathered fit” of her marabou jumpsuit, a version of which made its way into the brand’s pre-fall 2021 lookbook. In June, Rihanna’s significant other ASAP Rocky promoted his first studio album in an emerald fur version of a puffer from Lee’s Wardrobe 02 collection, a piece that would look great next to Rihanna’s chartreuse dress if ever the power couple decides to coordinate.
