The wax figure of the Barbadian icon Rihanna in the Madame Tussauds museum was redressed. This allowed to add a new charm to her.
Now she's wearing an elegant Fenty mint silk dress with a plunging neckline, which is exactly how the singer appeared at the 2019 British Fashion Awards at the Royal Albert Hall. The Daily Mail points out that this outfit has been recreated with great precision.
Not only the dress, but every detail of the ensemble – the cape with gloves, the elegant shoes to match and the jewels – repeat the original image. The new version of Rihanna's figure will be presented to the general public on September 27.
At that event in 2019, Rihanna was next to her boyfriend Asap Rocky, who later admitted in an interview that this outfit became one of his favorites.
“Rihanna is a force in beauty, fashion and music, she really shines like a diamond. Her look at the British Fashion Awards 2019 was such a statement that we just had to do it again! Rihanna holds a special place in everyone's hearts, and now our visitors do chance to see her at All of the Lights! We're excited to give fans an unforgettable moment with the boss,” said Jo Kinsey, Studio Manager at Madame Tussauds London.

Rihanna's updated wax figure will be located in the Fashion Runway area alongside other fashion stars such as RuPaul, Zendaya and Kendall Jenner.
Right now, Rihanna pays more attention to her sons and business than music. Her empire, which began with the founding of the cosmetics company Fenty in 2017, has achieved impressive success. As of August 29, 2024, her net worth is estimated at $2.8 billion, and she owns 50% of the company.
In 2018, Rihanna also launched her lingerie line, Savage x Fenty, which quickly gained popularity and became another commercial hit.
