Rihanna's new British fashion crush

By Laurelle Gilbert | Posted: Thu 10 Sep 2009

Rihanna hearts London label Fleet Ilya

Scanning our daily round-up of who's wearing what we spotted Rihanna wearing one of the fiercest bags we've seen all season - only to discover it's by British accessories label Fleet Ilya .

The husband and wife duo behind the label are Ilya Fleet (a trained saddler) and his wife, Reshna Sharma (a St Martins graduate) who are both obsessed with surrealism and design extravagant masks, headpieces, corsets and waist cinchers as well as belts and bags, all intended to create the feeling of being armoured while still looking feminine.

Rihanna's bag owes much to the label's obsession with skeletal structures and mechanics and is available at Dover Street Market and Merchant Archive in London this season.
