    On October 19, 2024 Mercedes-Benz and Moncler expanded their collaboration at the “The City of Genius” show in Shanghai with a one-off art piece, a limited-edition G-Class and capsule fashion collection.
    The Art Piece
    At “The City of Genius” show, a one-off art piece “Project G-Class Past II Future” was unveiled based on a G-Class from the 90s that was completely restored. Realised by multi-hyphenate talent, NIGO, he reworked design elements inside and out, bringing in the 90s spirit to revive it into a contemporary lifestyle model, with a limited run of only 20 cars that will be launched in April 2025.
    It features a matte two-tone colour palette in olive green and grey and exterior accents in black, orange, and gold.

    Interiors are also given a refresh including the distinct quilted aesthetic of a Moncler puffer jacket with the edginess of a G-Class, a checkered seat upholstery pattern, black steel wheels in a 90s design, a foldable windscreen, and a gold-coloured fuel can.

    Among other elements, G-Class enthusiast Devon Turnbull, known for his immersive audio installations, has designed an audio system, mounted on the convertible top.

    The Capsule Collection
    At the show, attendees also got a sneak preview of a new collection of urban, gender-neutral fashion designed by Mercedes-Benz and Moncler together with NIGO. The capsule collection incorporates 90s influences with street style elements consisting of souvenir and college jackets, hoodies, checked shirts and Bermuda shorts as well as lightweight down and field jackets, parkas and windbreakers with a vintage look.

      Remember when Rihanna broke the internet after she announced her pregnancy last year? Her and A$AP Rocky’s first-born son recently turned one and to celebrate the occasion, the parents finally revealed his name.
      Born on May 13, 2022, Rihanna and A$AP Rocky named their baby boy RZA Athelston Mayers. The doting dad shared a sweet birthday wish where he mentioned his name, “WU TANG IZ 4 DA CHUREN. HAPPY 1st BIRTHDAY TO MY 1st BORN . RZA.”
      For the first few months of their baby’s life, both Rihanna and A$AP kept any and every information about him private. It was only recently when the Grammy-winning artist started sharing a few glimpses of her wonder boy with the world.

      Just as iconic as her first pregnancy announcement, Rihanna shared the news about expecting her second baby while performing high up in the sky for this year’s Super Bowl. Dressed in a custom red bodysuit, the beaty moghul returned to the stage after a long hiatus and left the crowd cheering for more reasons than one.
      Ever since, Rihanna and her glorious bump has made many public appearances. Whether it’s the Oscars or the Met Gala, both A$AP and Rihanna have been serving some serious sartorial looks.

      As the musical legends celebrate one year of being parents, here’s a precious photo diary that summarises what it entailed.

      She’s a Grammy Award-winning singer, beauty entrepreneur and fashion icon and now Queen RiRi can officially say she’s also a mum.
      Rihanna has welcomed her first child with boyfriend A$AP Rocky, according to People magazine.
      The couple reportedly welcomed their first child in Los Angeles and the family is now home and new mum Rihanna and her newborn are “doing well”.
      “Rihanna is doing well,” a source told the outlet. “They are very excited to be parents. Rihanna is already a wonderful mom.”
      Meanwhile, TMZ is reporting Rihanna gave birth last week on May 13 and the couple welcomed a baby boy.

      Rihanna and A$AP Rocky announced they were expecting their first child together back in January.
      The beauty mogul was snapped by photographers in New York City on an outing with the rapper showing off her growing baby bump.
      A$AP Rocky and Rihanna started dating in 2020 after being friends for over a decade. A$AP even starred as the opener for Rihanna during her mammoth world tour for her Diamonds album in 2013.
      The singer, 33, was previously in a three-year relationship with Saudi billionaire Hassan Jameel, but the pair parted ways at the beginning of 2020.
      Back in May 2021, A$AP referred to Queen RiRi as the “love of my life” in an interview with GQ, also referring to her as “the One” and that life was “so much better” with her.
      Congratulations to the new parents!
