Her glasses were also from Gucci, with the thick black frame featuring Gucci’s instantly recognisable monogram along with deep red lenses.

The Hacker Project was unveiled between the two fashion houses in November last year, as the brainchild of Balenciaga’s creative director Demna Gvasalia and his Gucci counterpart Alessandro Michele.
The aim of the range was to explore authenticity and saw the Gucci GG monogram be replaced with BB in a nod to Balenciaga’s logo.
Accompanying his girlfriend’s cutting edge ensemble, A$AP Rocky stepped out with a white knitted head covering with an attached face mask, staying safe amid the surging omicron variant of COVID-19.
He also wore a brown plaid dress shirt under a blue denim short with a white pin that read, ‘Be Kind For Real.’ The rapper finished his look with bejeweled light grey sweat pants and light grey Nike sneakers for the outing.

There had been rumors of romance between Rihanna and A$AP Rocky for years, after he provided a verse on her 2012 track Cockiness (I Love It) and she was featured in the video for his 2013 song Fashion Killa.
They were believed to have started dating sometime in 2020 after Rihanna split from her then-billionaire boyfriend Hassan Jameel.
Rocky confirmed their relationship in a May 2021 interview with GQ where he called her ‘the love of my life.’
