OK, Rihanna Just Turned Into a Lavender Mermaid in This Breathtaking Dress

Wait — we were totally just watching Rihanna shake it in edgy separates for her "Work" music video. But suddenly, she's arrived at the 2016 Brit Awards in the most elegant tiered mermaid gown we've ever seen. It sort of reminds us of when she surprised us in a pale pink Dior dress.

But this Spring '16 Armani Privé Haute Couture number deserves to be seen from all angles, zoomed in on, and swooned over. From its beaded accents to its notably dainty straps and gorgeous lavender shade, the design's craftmanship is not to be looked over. In fact, we bet she feels like a total princess in this number, which she played up with silver Giuseppe Zanotti sandals, diamond bangles, statement rings, and oversize teardrop-shaped earrings. Read on to see Rihanna prove her style prowess — she can totally go from badass to girlie in like four, five seconds.
