Rihanna Wears Gianvito Rossi Mules at Cannes 2025 • CelebMafia

Rihanna doubles down on lucite heels at Cannes 2025, styling Gianvito Rossi mules with Khaite and Messika for a sleek, trend-defining street moment.

Rihanna never just attends an event—she redefines it. On May 21, 2025, during the 78th Cannes Film Festival, the singer and beauty mogul stepped out in a look that was as polished as it was provocative. Her choice? A ribbed black fringe-hem maxi dress by Khaite, paired with her signature white pedicure and the now-iconic Gianvito Rossi Elle Plexi mules—yes, those lucite-strap heels that have ruled red carpets since 2016.

This time, Rihanna elevated the look with gleaming Messika diamond drop earrings and a gold ankle bracelet, injecting just enough sparkle without veering into excess. The finishing touch? Ray-Ban’s puffer sunglasses, which added a slick, streetwear edge.

It’s a repeat performance for the $795 Gianvito heels, previously seen on May 20 with a Brandon Maxwell cut-out dress. In both moments, she made a strong case for the enduring allure of ‘naked’ shoes—clear, sculptural, and still divisive after nearly a decade.

Love it or not, Rihanna’s influence is rarely subtle. She doesn’t follow trends—she cements them.
