"I literally designed everything I wanted to wear, exactly how I wanted to wear it,"- Rihanna (http://fashion.telegraph.co.uk/columns/bibby-sowray/TMG10237261/Rihanna-unveils-latest-River-Island-collection.html)

The Rihanna for River Island collection was launched in the Autumn of 2013, inspired by her own style. She wanted a sporty feel with the 'G4LIFE' motif being a running theme there is also a lot of camouflage print, tartan and stripes. She wanted an urban style that was sexy but everyone could wear and feel comfortable as it was just the perfect mix of sexy and conservative.
