Rihanna Wore a $1 Million Diamond Anklet to Paris Fashion Week and Honestly, We're Not Surprised

Rihanna stepped out at the Dior show during Paris Fashion Week in a sleek all-black ensemble, but it was her ankle that stole the spotlight. The singer and entrepreneur wore a Victorian-style diamond tennis anklet featuring five cascading drops with pear-shaped stones. According to Ajay Anand, CEO of Rare Carat, the piece could weigh up to 40 carats, with individual stones ranging from 5 to 7 carats each. Estimated retail value? Approximately one million dollars.

If that sounds excessive, consider this: Rihanna has a history of turning foot jewelry into a flex. She previously wore a $400,000 Jacob&Co. watch as an anklet at the Las Vegas Grand Prix, and she owns a $600,000 pear-cut diamond toe ring. At this point, her feet arguably have a better jewelry collection than most awards show red carpets. The jeweler described the piece as“incredibly glamorous and statement-making, while still being timeless and elegant”— which is pretty much the Rihanna brand in one sentence.

Whether you’re here for the fashion, the sheer audacity, or the math on 40 carats of diamonds, one thing is clear: Rihanna knows how to make a statement without saying a word. Would you ever rock a million-dollar anklet, or is that a hard pass? Let us know!
