She recently confirmed her appointment as the new face of clothing line Material Girl, and now the singer's many fans can get a first look at her debut campaign for Madonna's teen label.
In an exclusive photo from the campaign, Rita wears a simple summer dress as she poses on the top deck of a London bus.
Another distinctly patriotic shot from the campaign from Rita's Instagram, shows the singer wearing a soldier's bearskin hat while offering a salute outside the gates of Buckingham Palace.

Big things: Rita posed with Madonna as she revealed news of her Material Girl signing on Instagram
The 22-year-old singer announced last month that she was replacing model Georgia May Jagger as the face of the US label - the brainchild of pop legend Madonna and her daughter, Lourdes - following speculation that she had signed a lucrative $760,000 contract.
‘Joining forces with Madonna and Lola!’ she posted at the time. ‘It’s official Ritabots – I’m the new face of Material Girl!’
Following her appointment, Madonna and Lourdes admitted they were thrilled to have her onboard.
‘Rita is a talented beauty but what really drew us to her is the confidence she oozes through her music and her unique sense of style,’ they said in a statement. ‘On stage or off, in photos or in the street – she’s a magnet!
‘This is what the Material Girl brand is all about.’
Patriotic: Rita Ora wears a Royal Guards bearskin in the first look at her new Material Girl campaign
‘First look at my @MaterialGirl campaign. Follow @MaterialGirl to see all the ads. #yeahhhh #herewego wooohoooo @madonna :)’ read the accompanying message following the picture’s unveiling on Wednesday.
The hit-maker was originally spotted shooting the new campaign around London in May – weeks before she officially confirmed her appointment for the fashion line, which is sold exclusively at US department store Macy’s.
At the time she posed for a number of playful shots outside the Palace while wearing the bearskin – a hat traditionally worn by the Royal Guards.
Rita also showed off her toned midriff in a loose fitting black and white shirt that was undone save for one button.
Stylish: Rita catches the eye as she heads home on Tuesday evening
Hard to miss: Rita stood out in this metallic outfit after laving a Labbroke Grove recording studio on Tuesday evening
The singer was no less eye-catching on Tuesday evening, when she was seen leaving a Ladbroke Grove recording studio in the early hours of the morning sporting a smart metallic jacket and matching skirt.
Rita had previously showcased the outfit earlier that day as she took a stroll on one of the hottest days of the year.
The 22-year-old pop star had certainly made an effort with her daytime look, pairing the high-waisted skirt with a turquoise cropped top and a bright blue cap.
If the Hot Right Now singer was trying to blend into the crowd then she was certainly going the wrong way about it, turning heads as she wandered through town.

Hot right now? Rita had removed her matching leather jacket thanks to the burning heat, but didn't seem uncomfortable in the restrictive outfit
The star must have been warm in the knee-length skirt, having removed the matching jacket which she carried over one arm.
But if she was feeling the heat then she didn't show it, smiling as she walked by herself through a leafy residential street.
Rita covered her long blonde hair with a backwards cap and added her eye-catching reflective glasses over her made up face.
And it seemed that the star was in high spirits as she posted a short video of herself in her car earlier in the day as she sped along, writing: Feel it in my fingers! London!!!.'
The singer seemed to be making the most of her day off ahead of a hectic weekend as she's set to take to the stage at both Wireless and T In The Park.
