WWD broke the news on Jan. 17 that the pop star was working with LVMH on the high-profile fashion project, an extension of their wildly successful Fenty Beauty line. The singer and the French luxury conglomerate confirmed the project May 10, saying the new luxury maison would be based in Paris and launch for spring 2019 with ready-to-wear, shoes and accessories.
The first collection features utilitarian-inspired, monotoned looks, such as suits with wide-leg pants offset with streamlined fanny packs, ultra-short corset dresses and oversize denim jackets.
