Rihanna kicks off New York Fashion Week
New York style Week kicked off in an explosion of style and sounds on Friday as a host of some of the trendiest stars around flocked to Radio City Music Hall for the fifth style Rocks event.
Making her mark was stylish Barbadian Rihanna. The beautiful Umbrella singer looked gorgeous in a black ruffled Monique Lhuiller frock at her arrival. She later donned a glitzy leotard to wow the audience with a showgirl performance. Black-Eyed Peas singer Fergie, meanwhile, went for boho chic with a Gucci outfit featuring an ethnic-inspired blouse.
Fellow songstress Beyonce donned several glamorous looks for her time in the spotlight. Performing with SexyBack star Justin Timberlake, the former Destiny's Child singer sparkled in a Jean-Paul Gaultier catsuit with plunging neckline. Then it was a change of look – with short blonde wig – with a classy Zuhair Murad cocktail dress, in this season's key mustard colour.
Not to be outdone, the stars of the silver screen were also showing their style credentials. Fresh from watching the catwalks was Charlize Theron, casually chic in tight fitting trousers matched with a silver blazer she had earlier seen on the Rag And Bone runway that day.
And Hilary Swank was lovely in lilac in a one-shouldered couture dress from Givenchy.

Charlize Theron’s $65 beauty regimen
Charlize Theron has splashed out on expensive "super berry" moisturiser.
The 33-year-old actress is determined to preserve her youthful appearance and swears by Sugar Acai Age-Delay Body Cream, made from a fruit found in the Amazon jungle.
The cream, which costs a staggering for a small tube, boasts it can "slow down time" and is packed with "age-defying technologies to nourish, protect and firm".
Charlize is not the only Hollywood star to use unusual methods to fight off the signs of ageing.
'Desperate Housewives' actress Teri Hatcher's beauty regime reportedly involves pouring a glass of wine into her bath, while Gwyneth Paltrow uses an anti-wrinkle cream containing snake venom to maintain her looks.
Last year, Blondie singer Debbie Harry admitted to injecting herself with sheep embryos to stay looking young.
'Striptease' actress Demi Moore, 45, recently revealed she covers herself in blood-sucking leeches to keep her skin looking fresh.
