After becoming the new face of Armani Jeans and Emporio Armani Underwear in July, pop singer Rihanna will be launching a capsule collection through the brand. The collection will include two T-shirts, two pairs of jeans, two sets of lingerie, a leather jacket and a bag. The designs fit with the “We Found Love” hit-maker’s bold and often raunchy style, but are toned down enough for everyday wear.

“I’ve always been in awe of Mr. Armani,” the singer admitted. “Designing a line with him is something I never imagined.”

The collection’s T-shirts are sure to become concertgoer staples, one bearing Rihanna’s face with an animal background and the other emblazoned with the singer’s signature “R” over the Armani eagle logo. The jeans, one skintight and one looser style, come in blue and black while the ultra-feminine lingerie is available in blue and gray.

An Armani Jeans and Emporio Armani Underwear spokesperson added that Rihanna is “hugely talented and extremely feminine…the perfect choice to project and interpret the youthful, modern, and captivating spirit of Emporio Armani Underwear and Armani Jeans.”

The collection will be available in stores and at Armani.com this month.
