Rapper A$AP Rocky turned heads at the Chanel Cruise 2027 Show on April 28, stepping out in a look that blended understated elegance with a personal touch.
Rocki marked a subtle nod to his daughter, Rocki Irish, whom he shares with Rihanna.
At the star-studded event in Biarritz, France, Rocky wore a brown suede jacket layered over a red collared shirt, paired with grey trousers and brown loafers, according to People.
While the outfit stood out for its refined simplicity, attention quickly shifted to a hot pink handbag he carried, which contrasted sharply with the muted tones.
The bag, gifted to him by Chanel creative director Matthieu Blazy, featured a sentimental detail, a charm shaped like miniature ballet shoes.
Rocky said the item was intended for his daughter, giving the accessory a personal significance beyond fashion.
In a video from the event, he said, “I’m going to give these to my daughter,” highlighting the gesture as a nod to fatherhood.
He was among several celebrities at the Chanel Cruise presentation, which drew global attention for its mix of luxury and artistic display.
He also reflected on another recent moment involving his daughter’s early appearance in the spotlight through a W magazine feature alongside Rihanna.
Rocki Irish previously featured in the publication dressed in a couture Dior diaper.
“It was quite something. She looks so cute, you know? I’m still processing,” Rocky said. “They so cute. It’s a cute overload. Happy dad, you know?”
Beyond public appearances, Rocky has spoken about how fatherhood has reshaped him emotionally.
In an interview with W magazine, he said, “I am way more emotional,” adding, “Before the kids, I was probably cold-hearted. But now I’m a loving kind of fella.” He added, “I’ve got a lot of love to give to the world.”
He also praised Rihanna, noting the changes motherhood has brought while emphasising her qualities.
“She has changed a lot because she became a mother in that time span, and that certainly changes you,” he said. “But this woman has always been magic. Philosophically, the way she operates is on another level. She is the most charming and genuine person on Earth. Her energy is unmatched one of a kind. I just adore her.”
