Rihanna Surprises Us with the Most Divisive Shoes in New York

Barbadian singer and new mom Rihanna has lately marked an exceptional appearance in New York: a t-shirt, a miniskirt and a pair of long boots with dramatic effect. She has once again made the news for her keen sense of style and fashion.

Throughout her long career as a singer, the second-best-selling female music artist of all time has always mesmerized us with her exceptional looks, proving that fashion is all about perspective.

However, her latest appearance in the streets of New York during a romantic evening with her boyfriend was one of a kind. What made this outfit unique was the pair of shoes she opted to wear: ultra-high boots arriving well above the knee that leave no one unmoved. They are from the latest Y-Project spring-summer 2023 collection, which saw several variations of this model in different colors. Rihanna chose them in a suede version, in gray color, giving a "jean" effect to the set.

On the Instagram account @rihannaturkiyex listing Rihanna's looks, the outfit garnered some success and a plethora of divergent comments. "She looks amazing," "The boots... Or can I have them?". Others were amused by the choice of the singer:"These boots are not too heavy for you?", "Will she become like Kanye West?".

After the Y-Project spring-summer 2023 fashion show, designer Glenn Martens had explained the inspiration and purpose of the season's clothes. "We always try to invite our customers to enjoy the clothes and play with them."
