Rihanna is expanding her fashion empire by teaming with Dior for a new line of sunglasses.

RiRi and Dior are collaborating on a collection of futuristic sunglasses simply called "Rihanna." According to WWD, the frames will be sold exclusively at Dior retail stores starting in early June. The one style is available in silver, pink, blue, green, and red, and will retail for $840, while a deluxe 24-karat gold-plated version will cost $1,950.

"We are very pleased to partner for the second time with Rihanna," said Dior chief executive officer Sidney Toledano. "She is an artist, an entertainer, an entrepreneur, a philanthropist, and a style icon for today's generation."

Rihanna's vintage 2000 frame was inspired by Lieutenant Commander Geordi La Forge from "Star Trek."

"I've always been obsessed with his eyewear, and when I got to Dior and saw all the materials I could play with, it all just came together," she said.
