Whilst promoting her new album ‘Phoenix,’ Rita Ora had no shortage of five major fashion moments in only three days. This comes after her dressy outing for ‘Live with Kelly and Ryan’. If you were loving every minute of that extravagant look, then just wait for this next set.
Upon departing The Mercer Hotel in New York City on Monday (December 17), the songstress rocked a dramatic design from the Jean Paul Gaultier Fall 2018 Haute Couture collection. An avant-garde raincoat with the sharpest Le Smoking tailoring was served up here — with the bauble earrings, sci-fi sunglasses, and hot-pink lip only adding to the modern Matrix vibe.
A union of delicacy and edge came forth in this Vera Wang Collection Spring 2019 broderie anglaise baby doll dress with exaggerated macramé lace sleeves, seen when Rita was at the Hearst Magazine Building later on Monday. I would owe some of that edginess to the leather OTK Clergerie ‘Alert’ boots, as her makeup reflected a softer tone.
As Tuesday (December 18) was a new day, she departed The Mercer Hotel in NYC once again, this time in a Fendi Fall 2018 look. I love this ensemble for its vinyl-esque ode to plaid, the peek of plum fabric in the skirt slits — and for the ironic puffer cape. On some, this boxy ’40s-meets-futuristic look would just be silly. But, Rita pulls it off with serious aplomb.
Upon returning to The Mercer Hotel later on Tuesday, she kept the play on proportions going strong with this puff-perfect Moncler 6 Noir Kei Ninomiya Fall 2018 flower-padded jacket. It was a statement in itself, but the Palm Angels Fall 2018 colour-block dress underneath and the white booties added even more attitude to the style-forward winter outing.
The most precious of her edgy-experimental looks, this Dice Kayek Fall 2018 was debuted during the ‘C to You’ TV show in Paris, France on Wednesday (December 19). I love this on Rita, with the giant bow adding so much girly whimsy while the black-and-white palette ensures plenty of sophistication. Round sunnies added a retro element with Giuseppe Zanotti sandals to polish off the chic-sweet look.

I love the JPG and the Fendi!
Surprise, surprise, I like none.
The quirky shades in looks 1, 3, 4 don’t add to the looks and make it them less cool. The Second isn’t working at all, I’m not keen on the idea but it does feel unflattering. The Moncler jacket is creepy but dark sentiment seems to be the theme for the day’s dressing. I really like the Gautier coat and prefer her boot choice with but I prefer the matching boots that we see on the runway with Fendi outfit. I kind of see Hailee Steinfeld in the Dice Kayek dress.
I like the Dice Kayek look. It’s an elaborate piece that deserves an outing.
The rest I don’t really care. Some are okay, some are terrible
People on this site are usually pretty harsh on Rita (a lot of the time it’s justified but at least she has fun and is never boring!) but I actually love these looks, especially the Dice Kayek. Really funky and cool.
i’m just so over her. i love that fendi look though.
That Fendi look is everything!
Honestly, she nailed it.
Haha I love the matching suitcase peeking out behind her in the last look!
Okay, I cant believe Im gonna say this….but I am in love with the puffer cape look. All of it. LOVE.
She totally works it and wears it better than the runway.
Its odd, intriguing but its still classy.
Really like the Fendi & Dice Kayek on her.
Let me “fix” that headline: “Rita Ora Has Five Major Fashion Mistakes In Three Days” I could not resist.
