Snapshots: Rihanna continues to OWN New York Fashion Week...

It’s only day three, but Rihanna continues to run the show during New York Fashion Week. The singer looked smoking with her stylist Mel Ottenberg at the Altuzarra show during Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Spring 2015 (September 6th). 

But it was her bold anorak-as-dress concept and bucket hat during Alexander Wang’s show that won her a heap of praise. Very throwback 90s Hip Hop. While many of us would be called thots for walking the street like this, Rihanna's fashion status continues to go up in rank.

There was even a moment where Rihanna stole Nicki Minaj's thunder, funnily enough. Here's the story...

Anyone who attended Alexander Wang’s show on Saturday can tell you, Pier 59 is not a well-ventilated venue. But the five foot radius surrounding Nicki Minaj, sitting front row at the show, was a veritable sweat pit. A handful of reporters and over a dozen photographers hovered around Minaj while one of her two two fanned Minaj. They told reporters to “hold on” for over twenty minutes while the rapper looked through Instagram. “What’s her name?” Lauren Hutton, sitting next to Minaj, whispered to WWD. Nicky Minaj. “Oh, yes I’ve heard of that.” Moments later she was upstaged. BadGirlRiRi and her constant companions — Mel Ottenberg and Melissa Ford — emerged and the swarm followed. Sorry Nicki. - WWD

Needing to add, Rihanna arrived at the Alexander Wang show wearing an Alexander Wang Sneaker Bag from the SS15 collection that DEBUTED on the runway at that very same show. Boss.
