Rihanna's Fleet Ilya Medieval Cross-Body Bag

— September 11, 2009 — Unique
Armored fashions, as well as Rihanna’s fashion choices, have had extensive coverage on Trend Hunter and now I bring you a combination of the two. Rihanna was spotted with a medieval cross-body purse by Fleet Ilya.

Rihanna’s Fleet Ilya leather side-slinging bag features an interesting piece of shoulder armory. Another interesting note: Fleet Ilya is actually a “bondage fashion” accessories label. If you take a look at some of their other offerings (see gallery), you’ll notice that their items are a bit bizarre and often risque--if the leather harnesses are any indication.
