Rihanna made a triumphant return to the stage after three years in Saint Laurent. The “Where Have You Been” singer joined longtime collaborator Jay-Z during the final night of his three-day run shows at Yankee Stadium on Sunday.

Rihanna wore Saint Laurent by Anthony Vaccarello while performing at the Jay-Z 30 concert in the Bronx, New York. The singer joined Jay-Z to perform their collaboration “Run This Town” and strutted across the stage in one of Saint Laurent’s most popular heel styles, the Vendôme slingback pumps in glazed leather.
The pumps featured a dramatically pointed toe and a flared stiletto heel measuring 4.3 inches. They were held in place by an elasticized slingback strap and finished with a leather sole and a round Saint Laurent-engraved metal plaque on the insole. Her style was made from a glossy calfskin leather and retails for $1,200.

The singer paired the shoes with a long-sleeve, strapless leather top with animal-free fur trim and black leather capri pants. She accessorized with five belts: a cylinder buckle belt in crocodile-embossed leather, a folk buckle thin belt in smooth leather, a Cassandre charm elongated buckle thin belt in leather, a Cassandre charm chain belt in metal and enamel, and a Cassandre chain belt in metal. She completed the look with the brand’s SL963 sunglasses.
The appearance was Rihanna’s first public performance since 2023, when she sang at the Academy Awards and headlined the Super Bowl LVII halftime show. She was among several stars who joined Jay-Z on stage over the weekend, alongside Beyoncé, Pharrell, Usher, Jeezy, Nas and more. The shows honored the 30th anniversary of “Reasonable Doubt” and the 25th anniversary of “The Blueprint.” Additional performances have been announced for Paris and London.
