Rihanna once again proved why she remains one of fashion’s biggest risk-takers. The superstar appeared in a striking new editorial for EE72, wearing an Alexander McQueen look that blurred the line between clothing and art.
Rihanna poses in completely see-through Alexander McQueen dress that is only ribbons for EE72
Photographed by Szilveszter Makó and styled by Edward Enninful, the dramatic image showcased Rihanna in a daring dress that appeared to be constructed almost entirely from long strands of ribbon. The design featured countless red and black strips flowing from a high neckline down through the skirt, creating movement and texture from every angle. A wide matching belt cinched the waist and broke up the ribbons, adding structure to the fluid silhouette.
Beneath the ribbon-covered creation, Rihanna wore a sheer bodysuit by Madomorpho that added another layer of visual intrigue. The semi-transparent piece featured a bold diamond pattern running across the sleeves and legs, making the outfit look even more theatrical. The see-through styling allowed the intricate details of the ensemble to take center stage while maintaining the editor’s artistic vision.
The beauty mogul paired the look with oversized silver and cream colored sculptural bangles by Dinosaur Designs. This added a modern artistic touch. Her hair was equally dramatic. Styled into a towering vintage updo with extra volume. A dark lip and softly defined eyes completed the striking beauty look.
The feature arrives as part of EE72’s latest editorial project, with Enninful describing Rihanna as someone who “doesn’t follow trends” but instead helps define culture itself. The images certainly support that. Rather than relying on conventional dressing, the shoot embraces high-fashion experimentation and bold creative expression.
While many celebrities play it safe in editorials, Rihanna continues to push boundaries with looks that spark conversation. The Alexander McQueen ensemble became a memorable fashion moment that felt both artistic and fearless.
