Rihanna's sheer crystal-mesh gown was hidden by a thong corset

Even though New York Fashion Week is just getting started, Rihanna is all the credit for its fashionable start.

Everyone's favorite bad girl opened the official show schedule on Friday, slaying two looks in a row all thanks to sheer Alaïa. Rihanna was present during the brand's spring-summer 2025 fashion show, which was held in the Upper East Side rotunda of the Guggenheim Museum to celebrate the French fashion house's triumphant return to New York City. The singer looked stunning in a handcrafted crystal mesh dress that draped off her shoulders and had hanging pearls all over it. She glided into the venue at the last minute, reported InStyle. 

Rihanna exposed a cream thong corset beneath the flowing gown, which she wrapped around herself like a robe. She added even more bling with a pair of pearl-and-diamond drop earrings, a massive diamond cuff bracelet, and pearl-and-diamond lace-up heels.

Her glossy plum lip and shimmery silver makeup were the finishing touches to her glam look. Her loose, side-swept curls of chocolate brown hair fell over her shoulder.  

Earlier in the evening, while wearing yet another stunning Alaïa piece, Rihanna gave her stylist Jahleel Weaver and Katie Grand the Magazine of the Year Award at The Daily Front Row Fashion Media Awards. She accessorized her blush-colored corset dress with sheer details with a pink cardigan with ruffles and nude strappy shoes for the event.
