Rihanna wears golden jacquard coat to Santa Monica restaurant
Rihanna visited Giorgio Baldi in Santa Monica on Tuesday wearing a golden floral jacquard coat from the Dries Van Noten Fall/Winter 2026 collection.
Quiet arrival at upscale venue
The Fenty Beauty founder entered the Italian restaurant through a tucked-away back entrance on Tuesday. She combined a fancy baroque duffle coat with loose blue jeans. Her oversize outerwear featured a wide hood and toggle buttons that added a nautical spin to the look. Around the back of the garment, a single vent and a martingale belt were visible details.
Design features and accessories
The piece was made with golden floral jacquard that resembled a hanging tapestry transformed into wearable art. Rihanna chose this bold statement piece to help her attempt to remain incognito despite her fame. To complete her ensemble, she chose a basic pair of barrel jeans along with a gold collar necklace. Thin rectangular sunglasses provided a last low-key touch to complete the ensemble.
Industry impact and trends
With this endorsement from Rihanna, Dries Van Noten coats appear set to rule the outerwear game this season. Jennifer Lawrence and other celebrities recently endorsed this expanding movement. The designer Julian Klausner created the collection for the Fall/Winter 2026 season. This visit continues a pattern where the singer uses the venue to unveil memorable looks.
