As the Fenty Maison brand prepares for a global launch, the brand has been releasing a series of sartorial images, some of which were shot by Ossai.

Giving a background to the choice of photographers on the team, Bernard Arnault, LVMH chairman, said “to support Rihanna to start up the Fenty Maison, we have built a talented and multicultural team…” which Ossai is a member.

According to reports, Ossai has an incredibly unique photography style, comprising of animated backdrops and textured mats for her distinctive sets, which have now appeared on Fenty’s Instagram story, as they tease their upcoming campaign.

Ossai also confirmed the story by reposting some of the pictures on her Instagram page with the caption, “Big thank you to @angelobaque, Ry, @illjahjah, @Julie and everyone at @fenty team.”
