Rihanna Hints at Simple Halloween Plans and Embracing Lingerie for the Holiday

Rihanna is ready to embrace Halloween with a twist. During an exclusive chat with PEOPLE at the Savage X Fenty Lavish Lace Collection Preview event at Nordstrom on October 10, the singer, entrepreneur, and mom of two, shared insights into her costume ideas for this year.

"I'm just aiming for something simple, easy, and maybe something I could do myself," Rihanna, 36, stated. Known for her bold Halloween outfits in the past, she now seems to be leaning toward a DIY approach, possibly inspired by the busy life of motherhood. The "Umbrella" singer also mentioned that she expects her lingerie brand, Savage X Fenty, will feature prominently in many Halloween looks. "I know they will," she laughed. "Halloween is when you get to see the most lingerie outside."

Rihanna has a history of standing out during spooky season. In 2018, she went all out, attending Rita Ora's Halloween party in London as a skeleton, complete with a corsetted latex outfit, neon pink face makeup, and voluminous, wavy hair. In 2014, she rocked a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle costume on the streets of New York City.

She also shared a bit about her everyday style, particularly as a mom to sons RZA, 2, and Riot, 14 months, with partner A$AP Rocky. "Lingerie, to me, should be worn whenever and however you like," Rihanna said. "You can have it peek through your T-shirt, or wear it inside a jacket, or just enjoy it for comfort."

Her mom uniform? Anything cozy, stretchy, and kid-friendly. "It’s got to be something I can bend down in and pick my kids up without any scratchy bits," she explained. "That’s just part of the job."
Rihanna, known for her iconic Halloween costumes, revealed she’s going low-key and hands-on this year, possibly inspired by her busy life as a mom. She also expects her brand Savage X Fenty to be a part of many Halloween outfits and shared her relaxed, practical take on "mom uniform" essentials.
