Rihanna has made fashion history again.

According to E! online, the self-proclaimed “bad gal” is now the face of Dior, making her the first Black woman to serve as a ambassador for the French fashion house. 

Rihanna will star in the popular Secret Garden campaign which will be shot in Versailles, France by Steven Klein. 

“Film and print versions of the campaign are scheduled to run this spring,” said a brand spokesperson. 

This won’t be Rihanna’s only major pending fashion collaboration. The singer is also in partnership with Puma as the brand’s creative director and chief consultant for the women’s training line.
