Rihanna let fans know she will be attending the upcoming Met Gala as she shared her fashion plans for it.
The 36-year-old Fenty designer — who was pregnant with her second child at last year’s Met — revealed she will be going for a ‘simple’ look when the annual gala celebrates the Costume Institute’s new exhibition, ‘Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion,’ and the official dress code is ‘The Garden of Time.’
‘I’m actually keeping it real simple this year… It’s gonna come to what my makeup and what my hair is going to do,’ the Umbrella singer told Extra on Saturday.
The star added that she has narrowed down her options to two dresses.
‘Very simple-ish… compared to everything I have done, I am showing up for dinner!’ Rihanna quipped.

She also revealed how her style has transformed since becoming a mother. Rihanna and A$AP Rocky welcomed their first son, RZA, in May 2022, and their second son, Riot, 15 months later.
‘When you become a mom, your style goes from “blah” to “let’s see what fits” to “I’m gonna be a bad bitch today.”
‘You’ve got to remind yourself sometimes that you’re still in there.’
The busy mom said she will be taking some time for herself on Mother’s Day.
‘Sleep, hopefully… sleep, and maybe I will get a bouquet of flowers…’ she revealed of her plans.
‘Whatever I’m doing for our moms, they really deserve the spotlight for Mother’s Day this year… They are literally holding it down right now while I am here and Rocky is out of town.’
The mother-of-two then addressed the ever-persistent curiosity surrounding her upcoming music.
‘It’s gonna be amazing,’ she told the outlet.

‘It has to be — that is the only reason it’s not out yet. If I’m not feeling it and I am not feeling like it represents the evolution and the time I spent away, there should be a show of growth…’
Rihanna released her last album Anti in 2016.
In the eight years since, she has released three songs for film soundtracks and nine features.
‘I want to play with it and have fun with it and show truly where I am at,’ she said of the new music.
