The tremor was felt globally, and too, the seismic shift in what was once de rigueur for pregnant mums. Business mogul Rihanna after weeks of speculation revealed her pregnancy without uttering a single word! It was cinematography at its finest. And... Action! The style icon — during a stroll with beau A$AP Rocky in Harlem, New York.

She keeps walking and feigns indifference as the Internet crashes.
“Rihanna pink puffer jacket” becomes google.com’s most-searched item for the next 48 hours. This, we soon discover, would become the norm as the style-savvy ‘Bad Gal’ spent the next few months completely rewriting the rules of maternity fashion in a festival of low-rise denim, crop tops, belly jewels and maximalist coats and jackets.
SO charts her style diary as we start our Mother’s Day countdown.
