Cape Town – Rihanna is the cover star of Harper’s Bazaar magazine's March issue and she looks so fly!
The Work hitmaker teamed up with the American magazine to honour Amelia Earhart’s - who was the first female to fly across the Atlantic Ocean - style as well as bring life to an essay she wrote about flying in style in 1929.

Channelling her inner Amelia, RiRi brings a fresh, sexy and modern touch to the aviation pioneer’s iconic look.
Not only does Rihanna perfectly capture the style of an empowering figure, the 28-year-old also shared how inspiring Amelia is to her personally.
She told Harper's Bazaar: “There's something so special about a woman who dominates in a man's world. It takes a certain grace, strength, intelligence, fearlessness, and the nerve to never take no for an answer.
“Amelia Earhart was such a dynamic force in her industry, setting multiple aviation records in her time. So it was a no-brainer for me to team up with Harper's Bazaar in honor of a woman who held her own with the big boys.”
