This past weekend, Paris played host to the second annual Pièces Jaunes Gala concert, which was organized to raise funds for the major charitable initiative founded by Brigitte Macron as president of Fondation des Hôpitaux.

The primary attractions were Maroon 5, J Balvin, Pharrell Williams, Stray Kids, Lisa from BLACKPINK, Gims and Gautier Capucon, and Gims and Gautier Capucon; however, Rihanna was present to support her partner A$AP Rocky.

Just one week ago, I expressed dissatisfaction with the singer’s silent trend, but this Saint Laurent black glossy jersey dress begs the question: did I speak too soon?

Rihanna does not typically wear a basic black dress that accentuates her figure while remaining sensual.

Her Messika jewelry, which comprised an oval cut diamond necklace by Divine Enigma, Disco Pulsation and Magnetic Love rings, and Exotic Charm and Groove bracelets, lacked her signature rocker edge.

Have we not just round a corner?

Did the Dior show mark the beginning of Rihanna’s new fashion era?
