Rihanna Radiates Elegance in Custom Chanel at ‘Smurfs’ Premiere in Brussels

Pop icon Rihanna turned heads at the Belgian premiere of the upcoming Smurfs movie, arriving in a breathtaking custom ensemble from Chanel. The event took place on Saturday, June 28, where she was accompanied by her partner, rapper A$AP Rocky.

Visibly glowing and expecting, Rihanna wore a stunning celadon-green chiffon outfit featuring a sheer midriff that gracefully showcased her baby bump. The intricate look was embellished with porcelain sequins, delicate feathers, and shimmering crystals—altogether requiring an astonishing 840 hours of craftsmanship by Chanel’s atelier.

The design draws inspiration from Chanel’s Spring 2003 haute couture collection. That season, Vogue highlighted the line’s soft color palette and dreamy textures, describing it as “an exquisite achievement… crafted with such deftness and sweetness of color that even the house tweed evaporated into sparkling nothingness at the edges.” Rihanna’s ensemble perfectly channels that same ethereal sophistication.

Her appearance in Brussels comes as part of a stylish European tour with A$AP Rocky. Just the day before, the couple attended the Dior menswear presentation in Paris. Rihanna wore a crisp white button-down shirt layered under a pistachio-green waistcoat, while Rocky opted for a striking striped Dior tie in red, green, and royal blue.

Following their Paris stop, the duo traveled to the Temple de l’Etoile for the unveiling of Rocky’s latest AWGE collection. Now, with Rihanna voicing the role of Smurfette in the upcoming film, their journey led them to Brussels for the premiere.

With each appearance making fashion headlines, fans are left to wonder: will the couple continue their sartorial tour across Europe, or was Brussels their final stop? Only time—and the ever-watchful paparazzi—will reveal what’s next.
