The Oscars Of Fashion: The Belle of the Ball

Filed under: Rihanna > Fashion Smashion

She cancelled "comeback" concert in Dubai later this month, but Rihanna surprised everyone by making her first official public appearance since the Chris Brown incident at the Met's Costume Institute annual gala in NYC.

And she looked so fierce and fashion-forward!

Wearing a daring creation from Dolce&Gabbana that worked from head to toe - hair, makeup, gloves, those fab shoulder pads - Princess RiRi was one of the best dressed women of the night.

So nice to see her back in the swing of things!

      She looks great, but her outfit doesn't. It's not flattering. Makes her look like a Tranny linebacker.



    2. 102

      Worst outfit ever! This is not style its a badly put togther mess of a suit.



    3. 103

      mm i disagree. i really don't like the sleeves and the dress. and i dislike the hair. old people with lil hair style their hair like that. and it doesnt look good then either.



    4. 104

      cause shoulder pads are all the rage…



    5. 105

      111

      Hate the jacket!!! A bad 80's flashback



    12. 112

      She looks awful in that outfit! The puffy jacket clashes with the high water tight pants. Not to mention that horrible material and horiffic overpowering plain black color!!!!!



    13. 113

      She looks like a fuck-tard. How the hell can this outfit be measured as 'fierce'?



    14. 114

      Yikes! WTF is that?



    15. 115

      Wow. I'm glad you aren't my personal stylist, Perez. That outfit is Craptastic.



    16. 116

      whose limo was she driving?



    17. 117

      I love it tre-Dyke!



    18. 118

      Why do people think she's a fashion icon? She dresses just TACKY!



    19. 119

      That is THE most ridiculous outfit I have ever seen. She looks like she could take flight.



    20. 120

      THAT HAS TO ONE OF THE UGLIEST OUTFITS IVE EVER SEEN!!
      UGGHH, IM SOOO OVER HER.



    21. 121

      This is so gross,



    22. 122

      She looks ridiculous! Those gloves? I mean, someone really told her it was ok and fashion forward to wear them? WTF — Fail.



    23. 123

      ridiculous, hideous……..first words that came to mind



    24. 124

      hahahahah



    25. 125

      i think she looks amazing



    26. 126

      UGLY!



    27. 127

      This is the best look?!? This has to be the lamest the Costume Gala I've ever seen. Everything/one looks so cheap. And if Amber Rose and Kanye West are the best looking couple, that is sad. They are so boring. Only Anna Wintour looks hot.



    28. 128

      She looks a hot ass mess. Perez you can't evedn keep it real no more. Yeah she came out but who cares. The suit is ugly as fuck and she's orange. her hair look like shit also . Get off the stars nutts they don't care about you boo.



    29. 129

      uhmm.. THE PURPLE EYESHADOW MUST BE COVERING UP MORE BRUISES LMAO



    30. 130

      she looks like a clown! HIDEOUS OUTFIT!



    31. 131

      That is the most idiotic outfit.



    32. 132

      She looks like SHITE!!! Perez, fashion commentating aint your strong suit.



    33. 133

      She looks ridiculous. End of story.



    34. 134

      Fashion forward my ass, she looks terrible!!!!



    35. 135

      Awful…She looks like Grace Jones. (If you don't know her, Google her)



    36. 136

      ew. so ugly…perez you have awful taste.



    37. 137

      I love and breathe fashion. I also love when people are different and don't mind taking a risk. Kudos for her being different but this is absolutely hideous. HATED IT!!



    38. 138

      no she wasn't one of the best dressed of the night . . .
      you my friend have questionable taste everything from who you think looks good to any and everything to do with lady do do.

      get it together boy



    39. 139

      i think she's a media tool. she's always one step behind fashion. atleast b.spears is a mess and we love her for it. support lady gaga and boobs aguilara



    40. 140

      OMG….I would love to def hit that….in a good way though not like CB did…lol



    41. 141

      I think you mean fashion BACKWARDS. It's a horrible flashback to the 80's. The fabric choose is just as atrocious as the overall outfit design. Looking at photos of the other attendees, "Princess Riri" was among the worst dressed there! Some of the BEST dressed include: Iman, Elizabeth Hurley, Cindy Crawford, Hilary Swank, Kate Bosworth, Claudia Schiffer, Chanel Iman, Eva Mendes, Kate Hudson and the list could go on! Perez, it's time to take off your rose-coloured glasses and just accept that all your favourite pop princesses have NO fashion sense/taste at all! Kate Hudson



    42. 142

      i dont like the outfit, however im just happy shes out again and looking happy.



    43. 143

      Princess RiRi act like a man half of the time any ways. I mean she want's some kitty. Was Chris there?



    44. 144

      Perez I love you. Where's Teddy?

    45. tasha says – reply to this


      145

      Love rihanna but this diffinitely wasn't her best look. I'd put her at one of the worst dressed for the night. Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake were the best dressed couple.



    46. 146

      Rihanna can be so weird sometimes…. But she is still awesome!!!



    47. 147

      UGLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That is the worst outfit of the night. EPIC FAIL Perez. I know you love her but give me a break, how can you say this is good? Seriously.



    48. 148

      she looks like that puppet from the SAW movies!



    49. 149

      RiRi's stylist really needs to put the crack pipe down. The outfit is hideous!



    50. 150

      um, no. she looks like prince.

    51. kimi says – reply to this


      151

      WTF are you talking about???? This "suit" is hideous and should be in the dumpster!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



    52. 152

      EEEEEEEWWWWW!!!!!

      **vooomiiitttt**

      **barf**

      **puke**

      This is fuckin fashion…..yeah ok! And the queen of england is coming over to my house for thanksgivings!



    53. 153

      Very nice! Who is her stylist?



    54. 154

      She is one dumb bitch! I have no respect for the loser in any way! Why do you continue to glorify such a weak piece of crap? At least miss CA has the strength to stand up for her beliefs and not be a ghetto punching bag!!



    55. 155

      ick-poo-poo.

      she kinda looks like a dike.



    56. 156

      Ew. It makes her have no figure- she looks like a fat dude. Riri- no!



    57. 157

      The gun tatoo..the tuxedo….she continues to do things to make herself appear to be a strong woman. Then why doesn't she speak about the incident that happened to her and make it clear to young girls that no woman should put up with that shit??!



    58. 158

      That looks like shit.



    59. 159

      This has 2 be the Ugliest outfit I've EVER seen. She tried 2 pull of a Diane Keaton type look (2 the extreme) and failed horribly!!!



    60. 160

      She looks sad…



    61. 161

      no - don't like it



    62. 162

      how the hell can you say she looks fierce?? she looks horrible.



    63. 163

      That's the worst thing I've seen since Celine wore the suit backwards. UGH.



    64. 164

      ok Perez I agree she looks feirce but that outfit is crazy first of all the tousers don't fit her there 2 short at the bottom and what is up with the pads? She looks stupid but her hair and make up are definetly an improvment!!



    65. 165

      oh and also how come it wasn't the right time to have a concert but it's the right time to go to a party? and to a red carpet?



    66. 166

      she looks like the man she is



    67. 167

      Didn't Celine Dion do this look but in a white suit and backwards? It's not fashion forward it's fashion fug!



    68. 168

      your so fake perez you know what she is wearing is hideous if this would have been some one else you would be all over them your just kissing her ass which makes me not like her at all

      team chris



    69. 169

      Ugh, that doesn't even look like fashion…… just like crap!
      She is a nice, beautiful girl, why does she do this to her body?
      She could do soooo much better..



    70. 170

      HORRIBLE OUTFIT! JUST HORRIBLE..



    71. 171

      This is awful! Madonna looks much better than this. At least her crazy ass outfit is original and different. It was inevitable that someone would wear this shit.



    72. 172

      That's as ridiculous as Madonnas "I will always be young"-style - don't support shit like this



    73. 173

      THAT MIGHT BE THE MOST HIDIOUS, DISGUSTING, ATROCIOUS OUTFIT I HAVE EVER SEEN!!!!!!!!! WHO EVER TOLD HER SHE LOOKED GOOD AND SHOULD GO OUT OF THE HOUSE LOOKING LIKE THAT SHOULD BE FIRED IMMEDIATELY !!!!!!!!!!!!!! I MEAN ASAP



    74. 174

      are you blind?



    75. 175

      she looks like shit



    76. 176

      Look, the outfit's okay, but not for that occasion. The Met's Costume Institute annual gala IS the creme of the crop for fashion, so why would you show up to such an extravagant event wearing a puffed sleeve tux? At this event women usually wear gorgeous haute couture gowns with the works, but this outfit disappoints. I could see this at the Grammy's, but not at this event. And she's supposed to be a "fashion icon".



    77. 177

      TRAIN WRECK!

    78. melmy says – reply to this


      178

      I think she is truing to look like Prince……..



    79. 179

      did she take this outfit from chris brown?



    80. 180

      aaahahaha she looks ridiculous!



    81. 181

      WTF?! hahahaha she looks patetic! chris brown must hit her again for that ugly outfit!!
      and why the fuck she insist to look like a men?? (or we don't know the secret? hahahaha) all about her is just too ridiculous!!



    82. 182

      way 2 fail 5 head.



    83. 183

      I think all the decesed fashion icons just turned in their graves. TERRIBLE!



    84. 184

      For some reason her face looks insanely fucked up.
      And her outfit isint that great…At all.
      Youre just saying that cause shes Rihanna.



    85. 185

      nope, this is Victor/Victoria country, not fierce or froofy



    86. 186

      I guess this works in the high fashion world…?
      but seriously I don't get why designers make outfits like this that no normal person would wear in public. Even if celebrities can afford them, where the hell do wear this weird shit?



    87. 187

      Sorry that she has a tough time lately - but I don't care for this look at all - she has nice makeup and hair - but beyond that I don't get the appeal..



    88. 188

      this outfit she is wearing is BULLSHIT!!looking lk a retarded michael jackson's off the wall futuristic sack of crap outfit,thats what that is.btw i love michael jackson & i bet he is laughing his ass off..nice try rhianna…even he is not impressed i bet.hahaaa



    89. 189

      It may be fashion forward, but I don't like it!



    90. 190

      seriously rihanna. once i saw what she wore i wanted to vomit. because she has short hair and she wore that UGLY suit thingy she looked like a guy.
