Leave it to Lust Icon Rihanna to take all the elements of military and make them couture. Before Beyoncé was roling in the dirt in high fashion, Rihanna took designer gowns to the mud and the battlefields with explosions all around.
"Hard" was the second single from Rihanna's fourth studio album, Rated R. The video premiered on MTV in December of 2009. Described as a cross between Janet Jackson's "Rhythm Nation" and Christina Aguielra's "Dirty", the video features Rihanna in a number of miliarty scenes; ordering troops while firing a machine gun, riding atop a tank in a Mickey Mouse-esqué helmet, stomping through the desert among field mines, and in an ammo storage center in a nude bustier with black electric tape X's on her breasts [my favorite scene].
Rihanna explains, "It's couture-military. Everything is surrounded by the whole idea of something military. We have tanks, we have troops, we've got helicopters, we've got explosions…tight gear, lots of cute outfits, lots of bullets. Crazy."
We wouldn't expect anything less. Lust with your eyes below and head over to LuStylist to get the look.
