Cardi B Names Teyana Taylor and Rihanna as Fashion Influences

Cardi B is making waves at Paris Fashion Week 2024, showcasing her style amidst the backdrop of her public divorce from rapper Offset. Seemingly unfazed by the headlines, she has been enjoying the fashion scene, attending various shows in the city.

On September 29, as she exited her hotel, Cardi stopped for a brief interview with the popular social media account “Fits From The Streets.” During the chat, she revealed that her chic faux fur-lined beige outfit was from Italian brand Dsquared2. She cited Teyana Taylor and Rihanna as key style inspirations, along with her own team members, stylist Kollin Carter and creative director Patientce Foster.

Cardi expressed her love for high-fashion brands but noted that she also feels confident in fast fashion labels like Fashion Nova and Shein, depending on her mood. She described her style as a blend of chic and “thotty,” drawing inspiration from her Bronx roots. In a previous interview with Stationhead radio, she acknowledged Rihanna and JAY-Z as significant influences, emphasizing their impact on her career and personal style.

Her recent divorce has sparked considerable discussion on social media. In an Instagram Live session, Cardi asserted her independence, stating, “A nga thinks that they can just buy a bch. I love me, s**t, but you can’t buy me no more.” She also addressed accusations from Offset regarding infidelity during her pregnancy, which she seemingly confirmed online. Fans are now debating whether she was justified in moving on after enduring multiple instances of cheating during their marriage.
