On Tuesday, August 5, 2025, the 37-year-old Fenty Beauty mogul was photographed in Los Angeles wearing a sheer, floor-length dress featuring a swirl of pastel pink and yellow. The structured, sleeveless design also included hints of baby blue and neon yellow, leading some fans to jokingly compare the vibrant look to a gumball machine.
Adding to the outfit's playful vibe, Rihanna accessorized with oversized earrings, a rose-shaped ring, and a pair of lime green sneakers for a casual finish.
Her hair was partially pulled back, and she wore soft, pink-toned makeup that complemented the whimsical palette of her ensemble.
Fans were quick to react to the unexpected look, which marked a noticeable departure from Rihanna's typically edgy fashion aesthetic.

"It looks like my blanket after I pull it out the dryer and all the filling ends up at one end of the blanket," one commenter joked. "It's giving gum ball machine," another added. A third chimed in, "The prettiest gumball machine I've ever seen!" In contrast, a fourth fan wrote, "I see cotton candy. She looks delicious."
Rihanna first announced that she was pregnant with her third child in May, during the Met Gala. She and A$AP Rocky are already proud parents to two sons, Riot, 23 months, and RZA, 3.
