In case you have not heard, RiRi is pregnant!

The singer is expecting her first child with rapper A$AP Rocky, and the pregnancy announcement was one fit for a fashion queen.

Photos of Rihanna and A$AP walking in New York City, with the Diamonds singer's baby bump exposed, were shared on Monday. Since then, fashion searches have spiked, with many fans wanting to replicate her look.

RiRi went full vintage, sporting a pink puffer trench coat from Chanel's 1996 fall collection, which, if you're interested, could set you back by over $10 000 (R160 000).

The star also adorned her bump with a 1980's Christian Lacroix cross pendant and a citrine necklace by Vintage by Misty, both of which retail for thousands.

Slouchy, ripped blue jeans with a vintage Chanel belt completed the singer's look.

According to WWD, data from Love the Sales showed a surge in searches for "pink padded coats", with a spike of 200 percent compared to the hour before Rihanna shared her big news.

Queries for "ripped blue jeans" spiked by 75 percent, while searches for "pearl necklaces" increased by 80 percent.
