Rihanna Covers Vogue US June 2018 With Choice Words: I'm Not Built Like A Victoria's Secret Girl

Rihanna is making final preparations to join Vogue Editor-in-Chief Anna Wintour, Donatella Versace and Amal Clooney at next week's 2018 Met Gala themed 'Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination.' The event and accompanying exhibition is "designed to create a dialogue between fashion and the masterworks of religious art in the museum's holdings, writes Vogue. 

Celebrating the event, Rihanna covers the June 2018 issue of Vogue US, lensed by Mert & Marcus and styled by fashion editor Tonne Goodman in glittering looks from Chanel, Michael Kors Collection, Paco Rabanne and more. 

Vogue fashion news director Chioma Nnadi interviews the superstar in 'Rihanna on Body Image, Turning 30, and Staying Real -- No Matter What.' 

As Victoria's Secret struggles to maintain its position  -- not only the world's largest lingerie brand -- but one with a positive stock price, Rihanna weighs in on her new lingerie collection. “I’m not built like a Victoria’s Secret girl, and I still feel very beautiful and confident in my lingerie.” This observation is important for VS because to date, the brand has a very loyal and cash-register ringing following among women of color.  During my days with the brand, women of color were disproportionately VS customers, a much higher percent of sales than their population demographic in America.
