Now, the star is set to design an exclusive capsule collection for UK brand River Island.  This will be the musical fashionista's first clothing collection for the brand.

"I've been wanting to design my own collection for some time. River Island is the perfect partner for me to collaborate with and working with a British, family run business also really appealed to me. I find London really inspiring and River Island loves to have fun with clothes. I'm looking forward to working with them and creating something really special," Rihanna posted on her website.

River Island CEO Ben Lewis said, "Rihanna is a style icon; from street to chic she enjoys her fashion. As soon as we started to work together we knew this was a perfect fit. Rihanna will be designing the collection and we will be sharing our fashion experience with her to develop a range her fans will love."
