Rihanna’s self-titled autobiography visualizes the singer’s life through a montage of 1,050 images. Published by Phaidon Press, the 504-page monograph took five years of conceptualization and planning before finally hitting shelves in October 2019. To celebrate this momentous occasion, Rihanna and Phaidon also released several special-edition versions of the singer’s groundbreaking new book, providing shoppers multiple means of entry by which to show their love and adoration for the singer.

The ‘Rihanna: Fenty x Phaidon’ edition, which retails for 175 dollars, is marked by a tabletop bookstand designed by Los Angeles-based design collective, The Haas Brothers.
