Rita Ora hit the red carpet at the Music of Black Origin (MOBO) Awards in DSquared2 gold strappy heels and a Fall 2012 white dress by Mugler:
Check out the close up.
Homegirl is giving face!
The knee length number features exaggerated shoulders, a nipped waist, and peplum details.
This look is hot!! Her waist is snatched. Rita’s blonde locks truly set it off, and I appreciate she went a bit darker on the lip.
What do you think?

Super fail….sorry.
November 4, 2012 1:14 am
That black and white photo is dope!
November 4, 2012 1:19 am
Bomb !
November 4, 2012 1:23 am
Sharelle and I aren’t looking at the same picture, because that dress is freaking IT and Rita knows it, that’s why she is giving me all kinds of Ru Paul in the face
November 4, 2012 1:38 am
She looks gorgeous!
November 4, 2012 1:55 am
Best she’s ever looked!
November 4, 2012 1:13 am
This is the best she has ever looked! Still don’t know who she is though…Never heard a song by her!
November 4, 2012 1:23 am
What’s up with the shoulder pads? The dress is overpowering, she gets hidden behind a dress rather than the dress enhancing her.
November 4, 2012 1:27 am
She looks dope!!! Although the top could’ve been tailored a tad nit better. She still looks dope she served!
November 4, 2012 3:38 am
LOL all those people saying she does not look good just cannot stand it she snatched the dress before their favourite artists (maybe solange beyonce or rihanna) could wear this amazing dress. Ha! #don’tbemad
November 4, 2012 4:11 am
This girl will be forever wack, ridiculous faces or not, Mugler or not.
Rihanna with her pixie cut and long neck would have murdered that dress.
November 4, 2012 4:34 am
she’s on fire!
November 4, 2012 5:06 am
Rita looks great. For the first time in a while, her whole look is on point.
November 4, 2012 5:06 am
Rita did that! She looks amazing!
November 4, 2012 5:14 am
Rita looks hot and that lip color is EVERYTHING!!
November 4, 2012 8:45 am
Would’ve looked better had she gotten it shortened a little. Still a cute look nonetheless. On a side note – does she have at least one song out? She’s all over but I’ve never heard a song from her.
November 4, 2012 8:51 am
Hot! But the facial expression? lol
November 4, 2012 9:12 am
FACT: The dress doesn’t suit her. She doesn’t know how to pose with it. C’est la vie! At least the makeup is appropriate for once!
Am I the only one disturbed by the toothpick waist she’s showing off in the b&w photo??? Is it an illusion created by the mega big shoulder pad? Well what do I know… lolll!
Anyways, it’s too bad because on a long figure this dress is simply extraordinaire!!!
November 4, 2012 9:15 am
This is the best that I’ve seen her look! Love this dress, but I don’t understand why it looks like she lost her neck in the dress though.
November 4, 2012 9:49 am
The black and white photo is great, but when I first saw her face in the top photo I thought she was in pain. I think she looks a little messy in a dress that is intended to be extremely tailored and structured.
November 4, 2012 9:57 am
The dress is FABULOUS just not on her…she looks like a clown in the face but if you put a bag on her head it’s HOT
November 4, 2012 10:23 am
She tries too hard.
Girl, bye
November 4, 2012 10:43 am
Vampy I love it
November 4, 2012 10:56 am
JLo could pose in this. She can’t. I think her hair should have been slick and pulled back.
November 4, 2012 11:27 am
Gorgeous. her makeup looks good, loves the dark lipstick. dress and shoes are hot.
November 4, 2012 11:34 am
The dress is hot, I just think she should have worn a different shoe. I also think it would have been better if she pinned her hair up. Like others said, this is the best she’s ever looked.
November 4, 2012 11:52 am
Love the dress but hair and make up is abit too much fo’ me.
November 4, 2012 12:07 pm
Rita always looks amazing! Love that dress!!
November 4, 2012 12:12 pm
I love it
November 4, 2012 12:21 pm
Outfit is HAUTE! Face is not :( …maybe she was in the moment of feeling herself but she looks silly in the face. Supper cute outfit n shoes..I even like the makeup…she just over did it w the facial expressions.
November 4, 2012 12:49 pm
Its a hot dress/look but it looks like she’s sucking it in HARD. Looks like its a size too small
November 4, 2012 2:42 pm
Cute dress but she looks uncomfortable.
November 4, 2012 2:54 pm
love the dress but I have to agree with some of the above, it looks like it’s over powering her and she has no neck! no bueno, and her hair should have been a bit more tamed for this look but I love the lipstick.
November 4, 2012 3:39 pm
The dress is fire, but I can’t with these poses.
November 4, 2012 4:01 pm
I like it but i’m not sure about the hair!
November 4, 2012 4:03 pm
@Lolodoll11 and Empress, I’m pretty sure she was the one who sang Party and Bullshit. Youtube it.
November 4, 2012 4:22 pm
The dress is nice she looks like a Jetsons Nurse. Shes pretty she can keep the snarling though.
November 4, 2012 4:27 pm
Werq! The basic b’s always give off hate when something fresh is brought to the table.
November 4, 2012 4:44 pm
Hot from the neck down. Her makeup and hair always mess her up. She needs a new direction for her hair/makeup because she looks old and unflattering.
November 4, 2012 5:37 pm
Sooooooo amazing!!!!! Love it!!!!
November 4, 2012 6:17 pm
The dress is HOT, she’s NOT!
November 4, 2012 6:25 pm
If the hair was straight I have a feeling I would like it more but she does look great I wish she’d rocked the hair different
November 4, 2012 6:26 pm
She tries to hard to be edgy/sexy 2.0 she needs to find her voice and leave Rhianna’s alone.
November 4, 2012 8:14 pm
@Stats- sorry boo Rita ready has a voice and it sounds way better than Rhianna’s, try listening to her song RIP fr example. I’m tired of everyone thinking that Bey and Rhi are the arbitrators of style. Rhi completely copies her looks from London fashionistas, so considering that Rita is from London and has been dressing like this for awhile who is really opting whom?
November 4, 2012 8:20 pm
No. She’s too short and it looks like Kanye dressed her. Lets all just stop and dress for your body folks.
November 4, 2012 10:06 pm
She reminds me too much of Rih.
November 4, 2012 10:22 pm
Love it!
November 4, 2012 10:34 pm
wwerrrrrkkkkkkkk
November 4, 2012 11:26 pm
She is serving in that second picture, you better werk b!+(h!
November 5, 2012 3:24 am
the dress is a stunner, but what with the weird faces she’s pulling?!
November 5, 2012 5:58 am
stunning dress…idiot faces, she looks constipated in a bad way
November 5, 2012 8:10 am
@Kay’Gee…I just googled the song. Sounds ok…
November 5, 2012 8:42 am
The best she’s ever looked.
November 5, 2012 9:25 am
I’m living for her tiny little waist! She is werqing it out.
November 5, 2012 9:37 am
nice dress but her pose is throwing me offffff
November 5, 2012 11:03 am
Rita ruined that dress. I know the designer is pissed! The waist is supposed to sit at the top of the rib cage. Rita’s is pulled down as if it were a skirt and the top is wrinkled on top of it. And the bust is supposed to sit up under the cut out at the top and she is spilling out of it. It’s awful.
November 5, 2012 1:37 pm
Fierce!
November 5, 2012 2:19 pm
The dress is fire but Rita didn’t do it justice. The hair looked messy when it should have been smoothed back to give the dress all of the stage. The shoes? Terrible with this modern, futuristic dress. It just seems like some elements were overlooked.
November 5, 2012 4:43 pm
that close up shot of her face…smh…it tells the tale…her without makeup and wig…wouldn’t recognize her…and as usual she looks a mess…

^^^ PREACH!
@Empress….. Her acoustics are SO MUCH BETTER. That girl can sing. Now I can see what people mean by studio pop mixes sucks the life out of a voice.
November 6, 2012 2:54 am
Her lacefront needs work. The styling is cute but that part is horrendous! I think she could have tried to go with her short cut but since Rih went short, i get the decision to wig it out. Still haute!
November 7, 2012 9:20 am
the dress is HOT, her facial expressions are HMM… and her hair also is a HMM, she should have pulled her back to make the details of the dress stand out more
