Parents night out!

Rihanna and A$AP Rocky, both 37, were back in town for Art Basel and a lot has changed since their visit last year.

Namely, a three-month-old baby girl named Rocki, who joins RZA, 3, and Riot, 2 at home.

What hasn’t changed is their head-turning fashion choices.

During Design Miami last year, when Rocky showed off furniture from his interior design studio Hommemade, Ri-Ri went briefly viral for a grunge-inspired, slashed up Maison Margiela minidress paired with torn stockings. Rocky chose a fur lined denim jacket and sunglasses at night.

This go-around, during Thursday night’s launch of the rapper’s collaboration with Ray-Ban at the Carl Fisher House, Ri-Ri went the haute couture route yet again. The yellow and orange windbreaker and rust skirt were reportedly from Saint Laurent’s Resort 2026 collection.

But it was Rocky who caught most of the online/offline attention thanks to his Superman-inspired sweater by Chanel, which recently made him brand ambassador. The capital “S” logo was replaced by the French fashion house’s two interlaced C’s. The artist born Rakim Mayers also rocked a pair of signature shades.

As fans of the “Babushka Boi” singer know, he’s all about looking as cool as humanly possible. As for Rocky’s new line with Ray-Ban, he told GQ earlier this year that the styles are colorfully wearable art, with mirrored lenses that change in the light.

“What I started to hate about the fashion industry was that everybody took themselves too seriously,” the native New Yorker told the outlet. “And I enjoy when people have a little bit of, I guess, playfulness. Just a little touch of not taking yourself too seriously.”
