Well this is a partnership we never thought we'd see: Rihanna has teamed up with Girls Aloud's Nicola Roberts to launch a new fashion television programme.

The reality-TV show is set to air on Sky Living over the coming months, with Rihanna acting as executive producer, and Nicola as host. Rihanna will also appear on the show in a guest-host capacity, and will be involved in casting and post-production.

The programme will involve contestants having to design outfits for various celebs and musicians, with the winner creating the costume that RiRi will wear during her headlining performance at Wireless Festival in Hyde Park this summer.

Not a bad prize, eh? (Presumably they'll get to do fittings.)

"I've always had a great love of fashion. It's a constant source of inspiration in my life, and is a big reason why I've grown into the person and artist I am today," says Ri.

"I am excited to follow the journey of our aspiring contestants and see how their individuality influences their efforts during the course of the show."

"There are talented people, undiscovered because they don't have the means or their circumstances are too far away from the fashion world," adds Nicola. "This show is here to discover those people and give them a shot."

We're not surprised to see Nicola involved in such a project. We've long championed her as the most stylish (and secretly our favourite) member of Girls Aloud.

We'll definitely be Sky Plus-ing this one.
