A$AP Rocky is bringing home a very special souvenir from Biarritz.
The rapper, 37, attended the Chanel cruise 2026/27 show on Tuesday, carrying a bubblegum pink Chanel maxi flap bag — with a pair of tiny ballet flats for daughter Rocki Irish dangling from the chain strap.
The tweed-trimmed bag was a personal gift from creative director Matthieu Blazy himself, who presented his first cruise collection for the French fashion house in the seaside town.
“It’s a gift from Matthieu. He’s so thoughtful,” Rocky told WWD outside the show, noting that the designer sent a pregnant model down that evening’s runway carrying a bag likewise kitted out with miniature flats.
Of the shoes on his own, he added, “I’m gonna give these to my daughter.”
7-month-old Rocki Irish Mayers, his youngest child with Rihanna, already has an impressive fashion résumé. Rocky couldn’t stop beaming over her recent W magazine cover with mom Rih, where both wore Dior Haute Couture.
“It was quite something. She looks so cute, you know,” he told WWD. “It was amazing, I’m still processing it. They so cute. Cute overload, you know what I mean? I was just a happy dad.”
The little one also made her first public appearance in head-to-toe Dior earlier this month — but perhaps she has a future as a Chanel muse.
Rocky posed alongside fellow front-row guests Michaela Coel, Tilda Swinton and Nicole Kidman at the show, which was held in the seaside city where Gabrielle “Coco” Chanel opened her first couture house in 1915.
Blazy chose the historically significant location for his cruise debut, with the house noting that it was in Biarritz that “the Chanel style took shape.”
The buzzy designer also sent a full skirt suit in the same bubblegum pink fabric as Rocky’s bag down the runway, complete with quilted burgundy leather details under the collar and cuffs, that perhaps might find it’s way into Rihanna’s closet.
