Rihanna at CFDA Awards in Custom Adam Selman

I had to start with this one so that you didn't pop onto GFY today and only to get an eyeful of nipple. (An Eyeful of Nipple: The Unathorized Biography of Prince Harry, coming this summer from WTF Books!) But it's worth noting, as always, that she is SO GORGEOUS. Her skin is perfect, and these colors are great on her. If this dress were lined, the truth is that I would have loved it. Because the 20s flapper thing is great on her.

But, as they say in old books, if wishes were horses then beggars would ride because this is NOT LINED. I feel like this has to be at least partly a reaction to the scuttlebutt that Instagram deleted her for posting a topless photo -- or at the very least, you KNOW she put this on and was like, "you have a problem with topless? I WILL SHOW YOU SOME TOPLESS."

And somewhere, Drake cried into his ice cream. Sing yourself a chorus of "All By Myself," sweetie. You'll feel better.

When I saw the previous photo, I admit that I was TERRIFIED to see the back. And yeah. There's Rihanna's butt! I cannot wait to read the 12 Buttastic Dresses That Changed the World! article on Buzzfeed eventually. I assume this one will go cheek to cheek with Rose McGowan's Dress o' Strings. Good company indeed.

Can this finally be the death knell of the sheer trend? BECAUSE HOW MUCH MORE SHEER CAN WE GET? Is this not THE MOST SHEER that we can, as a people, TRULY ACCOMPLISH? Have we not reached the OUTER LIMITS OF SHEER? Should not every other sheer dress put down its sheer sword and surrender? All that sheer longs to be and hopes to do has now been DONE. SHEER MUST NEEDS DIE TONIGHT BECAUSE NOTHING CAN BE SHEERER THAN THIS. A note: I don't know your job/life, but if your boss would not be best pleased to pop into your office and see nipples on your monitor, perhaps save this until she's off at Starbucks. [Photos: Splash]
