Celebrating Valentine’s Day might be the last thing on your mind this year, but Rihanna is doing her best to get us in the mood.
The singer-turned-fashion-designer has launched her latest Savage x Fenty campaign, releasing a series of racy photographs of herself modelling the lingerie collection.
In the imagery, shot by Dennis Leupold, Rihanna can be seen in a red see-through mesh slip paired with latex opera gloves and red stockings, along with the caption: “You’re not my only Valentine.”
The singer, 32, added: “Do that thing that you love the most. Make it all about you and your boo with benefit. It it makes you feel good and makes you feel sexy, then just do it.”
Savage x Fenty simultaneously released a new men’s drop, which sees American singer Miguel modelling a satin lilac smoking jacket with matching boxers.
The new range comes with an affordable £9.50 - £59 price tag, with fans already taking to social media to praise the singer for her inclusive sizes, which range from 32A to 42DD.
Rihanna - who is rumoured to be dating A$AP Rocky after splitting from billionaire business mogul Hassan Jameel last January - is well-known for inclusivity when it comes to her fashion campaigns and shows, as well as her beauty and skincare brands.
In 2018, the singer was praised when her New York Fashion Week Savage x Fenty lingerie show featured two pregnant models in addition to a range of men and women of varying body shapes and sizes.
According to Rihanna - who hails from Barbados - inclusivity comes naturally to her when she is designing clothes, as she draws inspiration from the people around her.
Speaking to Vanity Fair, the singer said: “When I imagine something, I imagine everyone I know and love being part of it.
“I want to make stuff I can see on the people I know, and they come in all different shapes, sizes, races, and religion. Whether that comes from my household and my childhood, to the circle of family that I've created around me. I really care that they be a part of what I do," she added.
