Rihannarama drops a beat in ‘Can You Feel the Heat?’ by Steven Klein for V Magazine 95, Summer 2015. True art is not broken down by a number of years, rather it is a construct of real growth. The fired-up female is here with, “The rapturous return of pop’s ultimate bad gal.” Celebrating her melodic return to the studio, Rihanna hits it hard with Executive Producer, Kanye West. Stylist, Carlyne Cerf De Dudzeele, goes from high-end to street-chic with a fleet of neon fashions that feel the vintage vibe. Riri brings the heat in an Alexandre Vauthier bright yellow fur coat & a mint green stole – while setting the film on fire in Juicy Couture, Ralph Lauren, Norma Kamali Butterfly Mio, BBC Ice Cream T-shirt & American Apparel. Vivacious vulgarity has a new zip code, in this editorial that walks the line between tame and tenacious. Retro revived gives us a treat, as (Makeup Artist) Yadim travels back in time for a taste of something sweet. The face finds the light with cool colors cast in a vibrant hue across the skin. Flawless beauty delivers an opulent edge with ice blue eyes and a pearly pink pout. Hairstylist, Yusef, plays the platinum wig part with a 60’s pouf that will pump you up. Modern music erupts mixing funked up flavors with a hit of fun. Enjoy R8 sounds; James Joint, FourFiveSeconds & American Oxygen. The diversity of these songs symbolize the infinity of true art and the endless cycle of inspiration.
