Rihanna’s influential maternity wardrobe – both now and while she was pregnant with her first baby, RZA – has been all about bump baring crop tops and body confident dresses. But she just made a different kind of style statement on her Instagram feed. The heavily pregnant singer posted a picture of herself wearing an oversized Savage X Fenty tee printed with the phrase “Use a Condom”. “This shirt is old…” she quipped of her tongue in cheek choice of top, which she wore as a minidress with slouchy white boots and sunglasses. Given that Rihanna has clearly not been following her own style directive, her shirt was instantly tipped into ironic slogan tee territory—and it’s an excellent example of the genre.
It certainly met with the approval of her millions of fans and followers. Longtime collaborator Adam Selman, who was appointed the executive design director of Savage X Fenty Sport last year, wrote “Do as she say, not as she do…”. Meanwhile, Rihanna’s look also won the approval of the queen of the slogan tee, Katharine Hamnett. The eco warrior and designer, who famously wore a bold anti nuclear missiles T shirt at a reception with former British prime minister Margaret Thatcher in 1984, shared the post to her Instagram Story. Of course, Rih is no stranger to a graphic T shirt. Retro sports jerseys are her signature, and she’s amassed an impressive collection of vintage tees over the years.
