Another Rihanna baby? She has done it again! The 37-year-old’s recent maternity photo shoot for
HommeGirls is stunning, even by her own high standards. As we might expect, Rihanna pushes the envelope of what many might consider “traditional” maternity fashion. She shows up full force with sheer bras, belly chains, and statement wigs (with the turquoise style stealing the show). Pieces from her Fenty x Puma collaboration are also prominently featured, blending streetwear with high-glam touches, such as layered pearls and metallic footwear. The shoot feels like a celebration of the icon’s personal style, rather than her adjusting to accommodate pregnancy.
Comparing Rihanna’s recent pregnancy to her previous one shows both growth and consistency. Her second pregnancy (2022-2023) was also marked by daring maternity looks. She wore sheer Savage x Fenty lingerie, sculptural gowns, and cut-outs, boldly exposing her baby bump on red carpets and in streetwear moments. Even then, she made a point of ditching typical maternity wear for more adventurous, body-embracing ensembles. Still, this latest shoot feels a bit more polished and deliberate in its aesthetic themes. It’s obvious that now more than ever, Rihanna is more willing to mix vulnerability (showing the bare bump) with high fashion.

In past pregnancies, Rihanna often unveiled her baby bump in slightly more subtle looks, where she might cover it using layering. This shoot shows less concern with concealing it; instead, it puts the bump center stage. Her accessories, hair, makeup, and poses all support the idea that pregnancy is a style moment in itself. It’s also worth noting how Rihanna continues to use her fashion choices to convey broader messages, including heritage (the Barbados flag), brand identity (Fenty products), and personal empowerment.
It’s apparent that no one does maternity shoots like RiRi. She has styled her bump from subtle street-wear to full glamour moments. From her bold color choices to her mastery of sheer and cut-outs to the way she mixes high fashion and comfort…Rihanna always makes pregnancy look powerful.
