Rihanna is one of the few people, forced or not, that makes the world their catwalk.. and I admire her for that.. she has some kind of swagger that is impressive for someone her age.. Heck, I am not the biggest fan of hers but I know a fierce chick when I see one.. Rihanna is fab!

You can be avant garde and look like a FOOL or you can look good. A great outfit looks good whether you have big shoulders and short pants or not. Rihanna looks a damned fool. Stop making excuses for this girl, she's allowed to mess up one time. She has 30 other circumstances where she looks great. For this, she did not. Not at all. So let her take this hit, she'll be back punching. But please don't excuse ugliness for being something that it is not. PS Kimora came to this ball in a great dress that was out of the box and gorgeous. Google. Everyone keeps saying they’re supposed to be avant garde for this ball, which may be true.

I think she took a risk (which is suppose to be done at this type of event) that really paid off. Iman is flawless. Everyone else looks nice but so typical for red carpet looks. I really thought Amber would have went with a more dramatic look but she looks cute. Alek Wek's skin is so amazing! Rihanna looks awesome.

Her dress may not scream black tie formal, it's more of a cocktail dress. However, she WORKED IT and brought it home. Oh, I MUST know who designed her dress. Of course, Amber, as expected, dd her thing. Oh yes, Mrs. Parker's dress is to die for. Her dress is another I must see in my own closet very soon. Oh, I LOVE it. I had intended to keep my comments positive. However, Andre' ruined it for me. Why is he walking around in a bleeping TENT! Andre' of all people. He knows better! I have never understood why Andre' gets into funks and comes out looking like a damn fool! HE MUST STOP IT. THIS MUST STOP NOW!!!!! Alex brought it AND took it home!

Of course, Amber, as expected, dd her thing. Oh yes, Mrs. Parker’s dress is to die for. Her dress is another I must see in my own closet very soon. Oh, I LOVE it.

Very disappointed in Rhianna's tux, I really expected more, I would have loved to have seen her in a shirt-less exaggerated version of a Yves Saint Laurent tuxedo suit with hot Old Hollywood" red lipstick, a throwback to Old Hollywood Glamor with balancing Masculine & Femininity. Ciara I don't I don't care how many albums Rhianna has, I don't care that she "cut her hair till right before her 3rd album"....I get it that 98.5% of these celebs have stylist and glam squads and that a lot of these celebs have no personal style and are given a persona, at least Rhianna owns it, she wears the clothes how they are meant to be worn, the clothes don't wear her, she is one of few celebs with a "persona" that can pull it of effortlessly and appear to make it her own, she doesn't look like she's trying too be the part of "a bad girl, a rebel, punk rock princess" she pulls it off without a hitch, I mean the girl is what 19, 20, 21? She has plenty of time to experiment and reinvent her steelo, I may not be a big fan of her music but, I enjoy her "persona" for lack of a better word and I look forward to seeing what other look, person, image she or her stylist come up with next.........Still not felling this tux on her though, @ LoudPen - Oh and umm can you and tell us who in the biz is "truly original"? And I stress the "truly" part.

Ciara I don’t

I don’t care how many albums Rhianna has, I don’t care that she “cut her hair till right before her 3rd album”….I get it that 98.5% of these celebs have stylist and glam squads and that a lot of these celebs have no personal style and are given a persona, at least Rhianna owns it, she wears the clothes how they are meant to be worn, the clothes don’t wear her, she is one of few celebs with a “persona” that can pull it of effortlessly and appear to make it her own, she doesn’t look like she’s trying too be the part of “a bad girl, a rebel, punk rock princess” she pulls it off without a hitch, I mean the girl is what 19, 20, 21?

So True! Anyway, Ciara looks the best with Amber and Kanye taking the most fashionable couple trophy for this event. Chanel looks nice. Eva and Tony do too. Everyone else looks boring. Tyras hair messed it up for me. Rihannas gimic is losing its steam, time for her to try something else. LoudPen…I couldnt have stated it better!!! So True!
