Rihanna’s Loewe Boots and Alaïa Bag Combination Is Winter 2026’s Power Move
New York City became Rihanna and A$AP Rocky’s personal runway this weekend as the power couple celebrated the Friday release of Rocky’s highly anticipated album Don’t Be Dumb. From exclusive release parties to Saturday Night Live‘s legendary Studio 8H stage, the duo delivered what they do best: impeccable couple style that balances individual expression with perfectly orchestrated coordination.
On January 17, the “Work” singer stepped out in a brand-new Prada Shearling and Cloth Coat—an $18,000 masterpiece featuring a statement collar that commands attention. True to her high-low genius, she juxtaposed the luxury outerwear with a casual track jacket underneath, creating that effortless tension between opulence and street style that has become her signature. Later, she layered a tan and brown fur overcoat on top for extra warmth, proving that New York winter dressing requires strategic layering—preferably with pieces worth more than most people’s monthly rent.
Below the waist, Rihanna kept things sleek in a black pencil skirt, but her footwear told the real story: Loewe’s New Comic boots in two-tone stretch lambskin and suede, complete with a metallic donut ankle chain ($2,300). The beige suede and black leather knee-high silhouette, topped with that built-in gold anklet, became the outfit’s unexpected focal point. She carried an Alaïa Le Click East West Bag in navy blue calf suede ($2,650) with gold hardware, coordinating it perfectly with a navy New York Yankees baseball cap and oversized sunglasses.
The mom of three—sons RZA (3), Riot (2), and Rocky (4 months)—didn’t skimp on accessories, layering a gold choker with a diamond necklace while letting her hair flow freely beneath the cap. A dark red lip provided the finishing touch of glamour, because even casual weekends deserve full-face commitment.
A$AP Rocky, 37, held hands with his leading lady while sporting his own meticulously curated ensemble: an embroidered graphic jacket over a red V-neck sweater, blue jeans, and dark shades. Multiple statement rings and a bold buckle belt completed his look, demonstrating that couple coordination doesn’t mean sacrificing individual style.
This wasn’t their first coordinated moment. Days earlier, they matched in bomber jackets at the January 15 Don’t Be Dumb record release party. Their history of twinning—from matching fur jackets in Paris to long leather trenches in Santa Monica—has become relationship goals for fashion obsessives worldwide.
Meanwhile, Rocky delivered powerhouse performances on SNL, including “Punk Rocky” and a medley featuring the album’s title track, plus a memorable sketch appearance alongside host Finn Wolfhard and surprise guest Sabrina Carpenter.
