In the same interview for Vogue, Rihanna spoke about making her pregnancy fashionable. She said, "When I found out I was pregnant, I thought to myself, 'There's no way I'm going to go shopping in no maternity aisle.' I'm sorry -- it's too much fun to get dressed up. I'm not going to let that part disappear just because my body is changing."


She further said, "I'm hoping we are able to redefine what's considered 'decent' for pregnant women. My body is doing incredible things right now, and I'm not going to be ashamed of that. This time should feel celebratory. Because why should you be hiding your pregnancy?"


Earlier, the singer was in the news when rumours of her breakup with beau ASAP Rocky dominated headlines. However, the couple squashed all rumours after they went on a trip to Barbados together.


Meanwhile, this year, the Met Gala theme was ‘In America: An Anthology of Fashion’.
