Rihanna, just like Beyoncé, is a beautiful, talented woman.

And as it often happens with highly attractive people, very little can truly “spoil” their appearance. Remember Marilyn Monroe, who famously proved her point by wearing a potato sack dress and still looking iconic?
We’ve already discussed Marilyn’s best colours in this blog, so do check it out later.
However, what really elevates Rihanna from simply beautiful to truly iconic is her ability to wear colours that harmonise with her natural colouring, especially her skin tone and undertone.
And this is exactly what we explore in more depth here.
At Zazu Feu, we use our own colour analysis system based on six flowers, and in this system Rihanna is a Columbine.

But what does that actually mean?
It means that the first thing you notice in her complexion is her cool undertone. Her undertone is beautifully blue-tinted, which allows her to wear cool colours with ease and glow in them effortlessly. Whether it’s the coolest blues or tender lilacs, Rihanna carries these shades with natural radiance, as if they were made for her (check our slides further below).

What Colours Rihanna Looks Best Wearing?
Rihanna looks stunning in cool-toned colours, including full silver gowns. Whether it’s a cool red or purple, Rihanna absolutely owns it. Plus, her colouring is quite saturated, so she can wear high saturated cool shades also:
icy pinks,
lavenders,
and even blue-toned magenta.
