More about A$AP Rocky and Rihanna’s fashion exchange
A$AP Rocky elaborated on their clothing swaps during a May 1 Run-Through with Vogue podcast episode.
“It’s not fair that my girl can just go in my closet and can just take anything… That goes both ways. She has pieces she don’t know that I actually stole,” the rapper shared.
He also dismissed traditional gender norms, stating,
“I want to be a catalyst for daring men. I don't know who drew the line between femininity... and masculinity... but I don’t see any barriers for me.”
The couple, who were friends for nearly a decade before dating in 2020, attended the Met Gala under the theme Superfine: Tailoring Black Style, inspired by Monica L. Miller’s 2009 book on Black dandyism. Rocky wore a custom black AWGE ensemble, while Rihanna’s pregnancy reveal outfit was custom Marc Jacobs.
Following the 2016 release of her last album, Anti, Rihanna has focused on Fenty Beauty and motherhood. Meanwhile, A$AP Rocky promotes his AWGE label and music projects. Their relationship, confirmed by People in November 2020, has included public appearances at events like the 2023 Oscars and the 2024 Super Bowl.
The 2025 Met Gala’s theme highlighted Black cultural identity through tailored menswear, aligning with A$AP Rocky’s gender-fluid fashion ethos. Further, his comments about Rihanna’s closet habits underscored their shared approach to style, blending personal and public personas.
Meanwhile, neither has addressed album timelines, though fans continue speculating. Rihanna’s pregnancy announcement follows her 2022 reveal of son RZA and 2024 introduction of Riot.
