Rihanna is definitely not afraid to take a risk when it comes to the Red Carpet. The Grammys is the perfect award show to make a statement! Let’s take a look back at RiRi’s amazing fashion transformation throughout the years. Do not forget to check out her live performance of FourFiveSeconds with YEEZUS and Paul McCartney.

For her first Grammy appearance, the up and coming Rihanna wore a green one-shouldered Roberto Cavalli gown. This hip-bearing, backless outfit was definitely a head turner.

In 2008, Rihanna wore a short blue dress with newly chopped hair to match. She picked up her first Grammy for “Umbrella” later that night and it was the perfect accessory for this Zac Posen dress.

2010

At the 2010 Grammys, RiRi wore a gorgeous high-collared Elie Saab gown, with feathers up to her ears.  She Ran the Town that night; taking home two awards for Best Rap song and Best Rap/Sung Collaboration with Roc Nations finest, Jay Z.

Rihanna went sheer in 2011, leaving little up to the imagination in her Jean Paul Gaultier dress. Sporting fiery red hair, all eyes were on her as if she was the Only Girl In the World.  Anyone else noticing a feather theme?

2012

Rihanna sexed up the Grammys in 2012, showing off her best assets in this backless Armani dress.  All of the Lights and eyes were on Rih and can we blame them?

Best. Grammys. Look. Ever. This red Azzedine Alaia gown is the reason why Rihanna is a fashion icon and the epitome of beauty. We Found Love in this look, from her long loose waves to her long sheer train.

We are about “FourFiveSeconds from wildin’” over this fluffy, pink Giambattista Valli gown and if Blue Ivy Carter approves, how could we disagree with her?

 Here is a video of Rihanna, Kanye and Paul McCartney’s live performance of FourFiveSeconds at the 57th Annual Grammy Awards. Grab your girlfriends and throw a quick dance party!

Ari is a self admitted fashion-aholic with an insatiable appetite for handbags and beauty products - not necessarily in that order.  When she is not bingeing on Netflix, daydreaming about Louboutins or scouring the Internet for "up to the minute" entertainment news, she can be found at the nearby Sephora offering advice on the latest and greatest must-haves - and NO - she does not work there.
