Rihanna'S High-Fashion Twist: From Louis Vuitton To Discount Uggs

Rihanna Rocks Louis Vuitton and Uggs in NYC

Marie Claire has always celebrated unconventional footwear, and Rihanna's latest ensemble was a prime example of high-low fashion. On December 2, the pop icon turned heads with her unexpected choice of footwear – a pair of Ugg Mary Janes. These aren't just any shoes; they're a Marie Claire favorite, joining the ranks of Jennifer Lawrence's wool clogs and Simone Rocha's platform Crocs.

While Rihanna and her beau A$AP Rocky are typically joined at the hip in the Big Apple, this time they opted for separate plans. Rocky attended Chanel's Métiers d'Art 2026 show in a subway station, while Rihanna embraced a more laid-back vibe. She ditched the Chanel glitz for her signature Louis Vuitton Speedy bag and comfy brown sweatpants.

Unveiling the Iconic Louis Vuitton Speedy

Rihanna's choice of accessories was anything but understated. Her Louis Vuitton Speedy, rumored to be the P9 25 model, immediately drew attention with its sleek design. Debuting in the Menswear Spring 2024 show, this bag features a crocodilian leather finish beneath the classic monogram. Priced at a jaw-dropping $46,000, it's a standout piece in her collection.

"Rihanna's ability to blend luxury with everyday items is unparalleled," remarked a fashion insider.

Uggs Meet High Fashion

On the opposite end of the style spectrum, Rihanna's footwear kept it cozy. Her Bea Mary Jane Uggs, which hit the shelves in January 2025, added a touch of comfort to her outfit. These slippers, with their 1.75-inch platforms and classic Mary Jane silhouette, reveal a plush sheepskin lining. Currently, the exact colorway Rihanna donned is on sale for just $87 – down from the usual $125.

It's not the first time Rihanna has paired her Louis Vuitton Speedies with casual footwear. In early 2025, she was spotted with a different Speedy Soft 30 and Ugg Tazzette Slippers. Should Ugg ever team up with Louis Vuitton, it's safe to say Rihanna would be first in line.
