Rihanna is no alien to designing shoes. She
is the women's creative
director for Puma, after all. So when Manolo Blahnik tapped the singer for a
limited-edition collection, the design duo embarked into cutting-edge
territory. The denim-inspired range features a variety of boots (Rihanna's
favorite is the sexy thigh-high style) and heels that are versatile enough to
fit into anyone's wardrobe.

What truly caught our eye, however, is the embroidery on these shoes, all of
which mimics Rihanna's beautiful hand tattoos. Each shoe has an intricate
embellishment of sequins and beads fit for royalty, and with names like
"Sea Salts" and "Rih-Vi's," it's hard to pick a favorite.
Rihanna and Manolo Blahnik announced their partnership in British Vogue, where
Rihanna detailed her excitement:
"The day I see a woman in the street wearing my shoes…I am sorry for
that woman because I'm going to literally run after her, shouting, 'Stop!
Selfie! Who are you? Where did you get them?' I'm going to have a moment."
Retailing at $895 to $3,995, the collection will debut May 5 and will be
available for purchase across several cities, including New York.
