Rihanna Dons a Bellhop's Cap in Paris and Berlin

We've always admired the fashion risks taken by Rihanna but we're not so sure we love her new hat. The singer was spotted outside the Hotel de Rome in Berlin yesterday wearing a hat that could have belonged to the bellhop.

Never matter, Rihanna left Berlin for Paris where she headed straight for the Four Seasons George V, even doing a photoshoot with some fans and her new hat.

But bellhops shouldn't expect any designer influence on their uniforms any time soon. Barb DeLollis at Hotel Check-In says that designer hotel uniforms are a thing of the past. She interviewed Kimpton Hotels CEO Mike Depatie who says that while Kimpton was leaning towards nicer staff unis in the flush days of the hospitality industry, nowadays they just use "stuff off the shelf."

That's a little sad. We actually really liked seeing designer uniforms on hotel employees. Oh well, there's always Rihanna!
