Together the two artists modeled coordinating red ensembles for the honor. Keys kicked things off in high-rise leather pants from Isabel Marant and round-toe sandals courtesy of Michael Kors Collection. The “No One” musician then layered in another statement piece from Kors’ line: a rockstar-inspired dramatic furry coat. Her outfit also included Cartier earrings and a ring from her own collection.

As for Kehlani, the “Good Life” songstress modeled a layered look from designer Robert Wun; the outfit offered mixed shades of red atop a shoulder-padded, sleeveless hoodie and tiered floor-sweeping skirt.

In another series of looks for the shoot, the singers switched to darker coordinating ensembles with Keys’ Chanel jacket and top and Kehlani’s Valentino blazer and blouse.

“I don’t see you chasing anything except your truth,” Keys tells Kehlani in their interview. “You had the song with, like, ‘I’m singing like Alicia’ [Kehlani’s 2020 track “Can I”], and then I kept rocking with you and riding with you. But I feel like the first thing that brought me to you was your energy and your individuality.”

Rolling Stone is also a sister publication for FN that recently relaunched its shop of branded merch available on its website.
