The mother-daughter outfits left fans shocked by how stunning they looked: “Rihanna is ready to step out in style with the daughter she’s long been waiting for!”

As Hollywood’s elite descend upon the sun-kissed shores of Santa Barbara for what promises to be the wedding of the year, one duo is already turning heads before the vows are even exchanged: global icon Rihanna and her newborn daughter, Rocki Irish Mayers. The mother-daughter pair, fresh off the announcement of Rocki’s birth just two weeks ago, is confirmed to attend “Aunt” Selena Gomez’s intimate ceremony to music producer Benny Blanco this weekend. And if leaked photos of their custom mother-daughter outfits are any indication, they’re arriving not just as guests, but as the undisputed style MVPs.

Rihanna, 37, who welcomed little Rocki on September 13, wasted no time sharing the first glimpse of her third child with rapper A$AP Rocky on Instagram earlier this week. The black-and-white snapshot captured the Fenty Beauty founder cradling her bundled-up baby girl, wrapped in a soft pink blanket, with the caption: “Our little Rocki Irish Mayers arrived safe and sound. She’s the melody we’ve been waiting for.” The post, which has already amassed over 50 million likes, sparked an outpouring of love from fans worldwide, but it was a follow-up story highlighting their wedding-ready looks that sent social media into a frenzy.

Dressed in coordinated ensembles from Rihanna’s own Fenty fashion line – a collaboration teased during her Met Gala appearance earlier this year – the duo channeled effortless Barbadian glamour with a modern twist. Rihanna stunned in a flowing, off-the-shoulder midi dress in shimmering emerald green silk, cinched at the waist to accentuate her post-pregnancy curves and adorned with delicate crystal embroidery that caught the light like ocean waves. The gown’s high slit revealed strappy metallic heels, while her signature oversized sunglasses and tousled waves added that signature RiRi edge. Nestled in her arms was Rocki, swaddled in a matching miniature version: a tiny green romper with the same crystal details, paired with pink satin booties tied with silk ribbons – a nod to the booties featured in her birth announcement.

Fans couldn’t contain their awe. “Rihanna is ready to step out in style with the daughter she’s long been waiting for!” gushed one commenter on X (formerly Twitter), echoing a sentiment that rippled across TikTok and Instagram Reels. “Rocki in that mini Fenty fit? I’m deceased. Motherhood looks unreal on Ri,” another user wrote, while a third added, “Selena’s wedding just got upgraded to fashion week. Aunt Ri and baby Rocki are serving LOOKS!” The outfits, reportedly customized by Rihanna’s design team in just 48 hours post-birth, highlight her unyielding commitment to boundary-pushing maternity style. As she told Vogue in a recent interview, “Pregnancy doesn’t mean hiding; it means amplifying. Rocki and I are debuting together – why not make it iconic?”

The timing couldn’t be more serendipitous. Rocki’s arrival comes amid a whirlwind year for Rihanna and Rocky (real name Rakim Mayers), who already share sons RZA, 3, and Riot, 2. The couple, who first sparked romance rumors in 2019 and went public in 2020, announced Rocki’s pregnancy at the 2025 Met Gala in May, where Rihanna’s sheer, beaded gown – co-chaired by Rocky – revealed her baby bump to thunderous applause. “She’s our girl. The one we’ve been manifesting,” Rihanna shared in a postpartum reflection on her Savage x Fenty podcast, crediting her Irish-Barbadian heritage for the middle name “Irish,” a tribute to her father’s roots. With all three kids’ names starting with “R,” the family tradition feels complete, and fans are speculating Rocki might one day inherit the empire her parents have built – from Fenty Beauty’s billion-dollar valuation to Rocky’s Grammy-nominated albums.

But the real magic? Rihanna’s deep bond with the bride. Though Selena Gomez, 33, affectionately calls Rihanna “Aunt Ri” in their inner circle – a nickname born from years of mutual admiration – their friendship is a testament to Hollywood’s rare, genuine sisterhoods. Selena has long been vocal about her Rihanna fandom; in a 2020 Apple Music interview, she confessed to owning a coffee table book dedicated to the “Umbrella” singer and named “Love on the Brain” as one of her all-time favorites. “RiRi has been my blueprint for confidence and creativity,” Gomez told Elle last year. Their paths crossed meaningfully at the 2014 MTV VMAs, where both performed powerhouse sets, and they’ve since supported each other through milestones: Rihanna attended Selena’s Rare Impact Fund gala in 2024, while Selena hyped Fenty’s lingerie line on her Instagram Stories.

Sources close to the couple tell TMZ that Gomez, who got engaged to Blanco in December 2024 after a whirlwind romance that began in 2023, handpicked Rihanna as a key guest list staple. “Selena sees Ri as family – the cool aunt who’s been there through her Disney days to now,” an insider dishes. The wedding, set for a private Montecito estate on Sunday, is an ultra-exclusive affair: just 80 guests, including Taylor Swift (whose flower girl comment on Selena’s engagement post went viral), Ed Sheeran (who confirmed his invite in May), and a smattering of Selena’s “Only Murders in the Building” co-stars. No first dance is planned – per Selena’s Jimmy Fallon appearance earlier this month – but expect a hora, the traditional Jewish circle dance, given Blanco’s heritage. The menu? A fusion of Selena’s Tex-Mex favorites and Benny’s comfort foods, with vegan options courtesy of a quirky PETA gift: caviar-flavored chips.

As helicopters buzz overhead and paparazzi stake out LAX, the arrival of Rihanna and Rocki feels like a full-circle moment. Just days after giving birth, Rihanna jetted from her Los Angeles home, sons in tow with Rocky, proving once again that she’s the queen of multitasking. “This weekend is about celebrating love in all its forms,” she posted cryptically on her Story, alongside a shot of Rocki’s tiny hand clutching a silk flower. “Selena deserves the world. We’re here for it.”

For Selena, the presence of her “aunt” and new “cousin” Rocki adds a layer of joy to an already emotional weekend. After navigating health battles, high-profile heartbreaks, and a career resurgence with hits like “Calm Down” and her acting Emmy nod, Gomez is entering this new chapter radiant. “Forever begins now,” she captioned her engagement reveal, and with Rihanna’s stylish blessing, it truly does.

As the sun sets on Santa Barbara this weekend, all eyes will be on the altar – but let’s be real: Rihanna and Rocki’s entrance might just upstage the “I dos.” In a town full of sequins, they’ve reminded us that the best accessories are family, flair, and a little Fenty magic. Congrats, Selena – and welcome to the world, Rocki. Hollywood just got a whole lot cuter.
