Rihanna To Show At London Fashion Week
It’s coming! We finally have a date for Rihanna’s collection for UK brand River Island. After the collaboration was announced last summer fans have been waiting impatiently. Today, River Island revealed that the collection will officially be launched on March 5th, 2013. But fans will get a look at the designs a few weeks earlier since British Vogue says that Rihanna will show the collection during London Fashion Week!
RIHANNA will unveil her River Island collection with a catwalk show during London Fashion Week. The invite-only event will be held on Saturday February 16. “Launching at London Fashion Week is a dream come true for me,” said Rihanna. ” I have wanted to design my own collection for a long time and to present my collection for River Island alongside all of the other great design talent at LFW is a real privilege. I can’t wait to see the reaction from my fans and the fashion press!” (source)
