Rihanna Is Officially A Fashion Icon

SHE may inspire thousands of young girls with her controversial style, but now Rihanna's impact on fashion will be officially recognised by the industry, when she receives the Fashion Icon Award from the Council of Fashion Designers of America.

The singer is in good company, with past recipients of the award including Kate Moss, Lady Gaga and Iman. She will receive the prize at the annual ceremony on June 2, which will take place at Lincoln Centre's Alice Tully Hall in New York.
