Rihanna, known for her bold Halloween styles, recently surprised fans by revealing plans for a simpler costume this year. The Fenty Beauty creator shared the update while previewing the Savage X Fenty Lavish Lace Collection at Nordstrom, discussing her more minimalist approach for Halloween 2024.
The singer, 36, shared, “I’m just trying to do something simple, easy, and maybe something I could do myself.” The choice is a notable shift from her previous elaborate costumes that have marked past Halloweens, such as her 2018 skeleton look and her memorable Ninja Turtle costume in 2014.
Rihanna’s Past Halloween Outfits Highlight Creativity
While Rihanna’s approach this year may be toned down, she’s no stranger to making unforgettable fashion statements on Halloween. In 2018, she dressed as a skeleton for a party in London, where she wore a latex corset paired with neon pink makeup and sunglasses, setting a striking example of her unique Halloween style. Even earlier, in 2014, she stunned New Yorkers with her creative take on a Ninja Turtle, showcasing her knack for standing out in the crowd.
Rihanna hinted that her current Halloween plans align with a simpler approach, focusing more on convenience and self-styling.
Rihanna’s Thoughts on Lingerie as Fashion
During her appearance at the Savage X Fenty Lavish Lace Collection preview, Rihanna also noted that Halloween is the perfect opportunity to integrate lingerie into costumes, adding, “Lingerie, to me, should be worn anyway and anywhere that you want.” She encouraged people to feel free with undergarment styling, whether for layering under T-shirts or for comfort and support at home. The statement reflects her inclusive philosophy, encouraging fans to view lingerie as versatile attire.
Juggling Motherhood and Style: Rihanna’s Approach to Daily Fashion

Speaking to People, she expressed that her everyday attire is driven by comfort and practicality, often favoring stretchable materials for flexibility when handling her children. Her priority lies in selecting fabrics that are gentle on the skin, reflecting the balance she aims to maintain between her roles as a mother and a global style icon.
Upcoming Style Pressure for the 2025 Met Gala
Outside of Halloween, Rihanna faces mounting pressure for her next major fashion appearance.
