Rihanna visited India for the launch of Fenty Beauty at Sephora and Tira Beauty, backed by Reliance Retail, in Mumbai. During her visit, she also went to Antilia, the residence of the Ambani family, on a special invitation.
During her visit to India, Rihanna grabbed attention after photos showed her feeding a cow while carrying a luxury bag. The green Dior bag she was carrying is reportedly made of calfskin, according to the website selling it, which has sparked a debate online. The “Medium Dior Crunchy Bag” from Dior falls into the luxury category. Reports indicate that its price is around Rs 4.30 lakh. The bag was designed by renowned designer Jonathan Anderson and is believed to be part of the Spring-Summer 2026 fashion show collection. It features a puffy macrocannage design, giving it a stylish 3D texture.

The website where this bag is listed states its main material as “calfskin.” In the fashion industry, calfskin generally refers to leather made from the skin of a young cow. This is why people’s attention was drawn to the photo in which Rihanna is seen feeding a cow while holding a bag allegedly made of calfskin. Some social media users are calling this a contradiction, making the visual difficult to ignore.
