RIH-LY HOT
CHECK out the latest lingeRiRi – created and modelled by raunchy Rihanna.

She looked red-hot, so what better way to celebrate than to revisit some other ranges from her brand Savage X Fenty, which launched in 2018.
The bedroom treats, modelled by the smouldering Bajan herself, are as racy as the pace at which they have flown off shelves, raking in a cool £120million along the way.
Here, CLEMMIE FIELDSEND looks at the lingerie brand’s evolution, from smalls beginnings, and gives each campaign a sizzling flame rating out of five.

FLAMING heck, RiRi’s latest Valentine’s kit tops the lot – all fires burning.
The bright red lipstick, nipple pasties and glam waved hair are like a blast from the golden age of cabaret.
The latex stockings and gloves make it her naughtiest look yet.

YELLOW, boys! This steamy neon three-piece in June 2019 sets the flames a-leaping.
The luminous lingerie, complete with sassy suspenders, sent sales soaring too.
The bra was especially popular – 42 per cent of Savage X Fenty customers said in a survey they preferred the soft, non-push-up style.

RIHANNA turned the scene blue with this Valentine’s offering last year, changing things up from the usual red.
But while the hue may be cool, the overall look – tressed to kill and with a star-print bra putting her boobs centre stage – sent temperatures soaring.

LAST year may have been a nightmare but it began brightly with this latex-look red lingerie from you know who.
Roping in Adam Selman, who designed her iconic “naked” dress, this was Rihanna’s first collaboration collection.
With the red puffa coat, she looks almost ready to brave the cold and nip down the pub.

SHE looked to the past to sell out her spring collection last year – with a Marie Antoinette- inspired range in March last year.
With its ruffles and plunging neckline, this corset looked fit for the 18th Century French queen.
But the flames of desire are rather dampened by the Hilda Ogden curlers.

WHAT a booty! These cut-away pants are seriously cheeky, as the star kicked off 2019 with a naughty, naughty Valentine’s Day collection.
She was criticised for giving plus-size shapes alternative designs that were more covered up but won praise elsewhere.

RIH’S first collection, in May 2018, is one of her more modest – in this shot she was practically covered up in a black bustier and stockings.

But of corset did not stop her 40-piece range going down a bomb – it sold out in just one month.
Bajan babe is the ultimate pin-up for 2021
LOVE Island star Malin Andersson, 28, left, says:
"You don’t put underwear on and feel sexy straight away — it takes time and is a journey, and we have seen Rihanna go on that journey.
She has been through a lot, with her ex-boyfriend. But when you experience that adversity, it only makes you stronger.
We have seen Rihanna’s strength — her independence and determination — with her lingerie and cosmetics businesses.
This latest image of her looking incredible is another example of how she has become the ultimate pin-up — with her sass, sex appeal and business sense.
I love how she captioned one of her pics, “You’re not my only Valentine” — making the point women don’t need a man on Valentine’s Day.
We don’t need men to give us a reason to wear gorgeous lingerie. Rihanna’s underwear, which goes up to an E-cup and size XXX, means ALL women can feel sexy.
When I was 12, I remember at the doctor’s there were magazines in the waiting room. All the models in them were a size zero and that made me think I should look like that.
But Rihanna’s underwear models are of all back-grounds, shapes and sizes. She has had a very pregnant model on the catwalk and stars like Lizzo strutting their stuff alongside top models such as Cara Delevingne and the Hadid sisters.
My shape means wherever I shop I am a different size. Sometimes my knickers are a 16 and my top is a 12, or vice versa. Rihanna’s collections take this into account.
I’ve worn Savage X Fenty for a while now and it’s impossible not to feel good. Rihanna’s brands have been praised for not airbrushing models, and her own images on social media are authentic.
She hasn’t been caught out tweaking her pictures. This kind of body positivity is something I often talk about on my podcast Battles.
Confidence doesn’t come overnight, but role models like Rihanna can help us.
So, ladies, slip into sexy lingerie and take a snap this Valentine’s Day, but do it for us women — and for yourself."
