AceShowbiz - Rihanna, 36, once again proved why she]s considered a modern-day fashion icon as she attended the 2024 CFDA Fashion Awards presented by Pandora in London. She rocked a baby blue furry coat from the Christian Lacroix FW02 collection, which drew instant comparisons to Cookie Monster from "Sesame Street".

The stylish ensemble included a black bustier dress with a lace skirt, sheer tights, black leather opera gloves and a matching furry hat, also from Lacroix. The "Umbrella" singer completed her look with shimmering diamonds from her multiple necklaces to her shoes and even flaunted a glossy ombre lip with a chic half-up hairstyle.

Rihanna attended the event to support her 36-year-old partner A$AP Rocky, who was honored with the Cultural Innovator Award. The pair, who are parents to RZA, 2, and Riot Rose, 15 months, didn't disappoint with their fashion choices. Rocky complemented Rihanna perfectly with a navy blue oversized suit, white shirt, red tie and black square-toe dress shoes. The two posed arm in arm on the red carpet, making it yet another memorable stylish date night for the pair.

Fans took to social media to draw humorous parallels between Rihanna's furry outfit and various fictional characters. "Nothing like a James P. Sullivan fur coat & hat," one fan quipped, referencing the lovable character from Monsters Inc. Another jested, "Is Rihanna being attacked by the cookie monster?"

This isn't the first time Rihanna has sparked such comparisons. Back in 2015, she donned a furry, green Versace coat for the iHeartRadio Music Awards, leading fans to nickname her ensemble as Oscar the Grouch-inspired. Other furry coats throughout the years have drawn comparisons to Looney Tunes' monster Gossamer and McDonald's Grimace.

Looking forward, the dynamic fashion-forward couple is set to make waves at the 2025 Met Gala where A$AP Rocky will serve as co-chair alongside Colman Domingo, Lewis Hamilton, Pharrell Williams and honorary chair LeBron James. When asked about their plans for the event, Rihanna humorously shared with Entertainment Tonight that she's still figuring out her potential ensemble, noting, "All we have planned is to be there." Despite not always asking for his help, she acknowledged Rocky's willingness to offer fashion advice, even to just about anyone. "I've seen it," she added.

Rihanna’s remarkable sense of style continues to keep the internet buzzing, and there's no doubt that her upcoming appearances will only solidify her status as a true fashion icon.
