Rihanna and A$AP Rocky delivered another unforgettable style moment as they stepped out for a glamorous date night at the 2025 Gotham Awards. The power couple, both 37, lit up the red carpet with coordinated high-fashion looks that highlighted their signature blend of elegance and edge.

Rihanna stunned in a drop-waist Balenciaga gown designed by Pierpaolo Piccioli, complete with a dramatic train that flowed behind her. She elevated the look with a matching feathered cap, sleek black leather gloves and a striking purple jewelled necklace that added a bold pop of colour.

A$AP Rocky, whose full name is Rakim Mayers, opted for a refined black Chanel suit. He paired the tailored ensemble with black leather boots, a crisp white shirt, and a black-and-white striped tie. Diamond-encrusted earrings added just the right touch of shine to his polished appearance.

A$AP Rocky's Nomination

The rapper arrived at the ceremony as a nominee for Breakthrough Performer for his work in Spike Lee's 'Highest 2 Lowest.' Earlier in the year, Lee shared that A$AP held his own alongside Denzel Washington, noting that the two performers delivered powerful scenes together.

The director also commented that he had long thought A$AP Rocky bore a resemblance to Washington, which added an intriguing dynamic to their on-screen chemistry. Lee expressed that while many actors feel pressure sharing scenes with Washington, A$AP approached the challenge confidently and matched the veteran star's energy. 

Although Aou Sangaré ultimately won the category for Souleymane's Story, A$AP's nomination marked another milestone in his growing film career.

Her post featured several heartwarming images, including a sweet moment of son RZA sitting on her lap examining sugar cane and a throwback photo of Rihanna, A$AP, and RZA together during her pregnancy with daughter Rocki.

The stylish Gotham Awards outing added another standout moment to Rihanna and A$AP Rocky's year, showcasing not only their fashion influence but also their flourishing family and thriving creative careers.
