Opening Ceremony is paying a special tribute to Rihanna in March with an exhibition of her best known outfits in the store called "RIHtrospective." The New York-based specialty retailer, will also be carrying the singer's debut collection for River Island beginning Tuesday.

The seven looks in the exhibition bears a certain significance: Rihanna has released seven albums in seven years, received seven Grammys and seven Billboard awards, graced the cover of Complex seven times - and then there was the infamous, globe-trotting 777 tour she went on to promote her album, "Unapologetic."

The outfits include her stage to red-carpet looks and showcase her chameleon-like qualities of her wardrobe, whether "really pulled together or grungy for performances," said her stylist, Mel Ottenberg. Rihanna helped hand-pick the looks, which include custom pieces like the ADAM Selman-designed pink lace minidress that she wore for the Victoria's Secret fashion show last November.

The Rihanna for River Island collection, which ranges between $45 and $350, will only be available at River Island and Opening Ceremony locations, and online at openingceremony.us. The "RIHtrospective" exhibition will be presented at Opening Ceremony's New York flagship at 35 Howard Street for three weeks.
