Amina Muaddi tapped none other than Rihanna to debut shoes from her her upcoming collection, Drop 24/25. Muaddi took to social media to share snaps of the superstar wearing a shiny gold heel called the Anok mule.

Rihanna was in London on Sept. 16 attending a launch party for her new Fenty Hair line held at Selfridges. As to be expected, the entrepreneur made a major fashion statement in a cream colored off-the-shoulder dress from Jacquemus, which seemed to combine the sensibilities of a robe, trench coat and dress.

Made of a thick and fuzzy material, Rihanna looked cozy but fierce; the garment narrowed at the waist where belt-like pieces of fabric hung. The coat also featured a significant slit that allowed her legs to be seen and contributed to the robe aesthetic. The top portion folded over to create an elegant layered look exposing the musician’s shoulders.

Muaddi described Rihanna’s Anok mule as “custom butter satin.” The glossy light gold tone complemented her Jacquemus coat, which was also a buttery hue. The shoe featured a dramatically pointed toe which contrasted the curved outline of the upper. The vamp lowered significantly along the side and led to the back portion which didn’t quite cover the heel, thus Muaddi designating the shoe as a mule. The designer did not mention a specific date but wrote that Drop 24/25 is “soon to be released.”

Rihanna’s talents have global reach, so it’s no surprise that she was in London not long after her appearance at New York Fashion Week. She attended Ala?a’s spring 2025 show at the Guggenheim this September wearing a sheer dress and pearl-adorned gladiator-style sandals.
