As a true fashionista, Rihanna knows her labels and isn’t afraid to change up her style. That’s why we love her for wearing one of the UK’s most innovative designer of the moment, Holly Fulton, and not being afraid to look girly whilst keeping her fierceness intact.
And we think We Found Love with this stunning look in particular, as pink mac made our RiRi stand out from the crowd with its intricate embellishments on the collar and cuffs. So ladylike Rihanna – we’re impressed!
Pink coats were all the rage last spring/summer and they’re taking lead again this season in the form of macs, and sadly, this exact stunning creation isn’t up for grabs online since it was plucked from Fulton’s autumn/winter 2015. RiRi likes to dress before her time…
You can, however, shop Holly Fulton's current collection with a click to the right at Farfetch, or you can shop the pretty pink macs from across the web in our style edit below. Shine bright like a diamond in Antipodium's embellished coat at Asos, now reduced to £225. We'll be wearing ours through the April showers - no need for an umbrella, ella ella eh eh eh....

The film follows Tip, a teenage girl who searches for her mother after her planet is invaded by aliens, and Rihanna has admitted she sees aspects of herself in the children's character.
She said: ‘She definitely reminds me of myself. She's sassy, she's fearless but she's very adventurous.
‘She's brave enough go out on that adventure. And she's determined to get what she wants. In this case she's determined to find her mother.’
The Rude Boy hitmaker believes the ‘accessible’ and ‘real’ character also makes her relatable to her young audience.
