Everyone was dressed to impress at Rihanna’s Diamond Ball held at Cipriani Wall Street in New York. The third annual celebration of the fancy affair got a lot of support from celebrities including Beyonce, Jay-Z, Dave Chappelle, and Kendrick Lamar.
Thanks to a successful turnout, the ball managed to raise $3 million for Riri’s Clara Lionel Foundation.
What’s a ball without a ball gown? There were two standout looks that were competing for the “Belle of the Ball” spot. Who do you think won?
Rihanna in Ralph & Russo
As the hostess of the night, Rihanna made sure her ensemble was captivating. The singer wore a black Ralph & Russo Couture gown featuring a high-low hemline and a structured long-sleeved look. Riri wore black tights and a whole lot of sparkling diamond jewelry to cap off her look.
