Rihanna Rocks a Tuxedo Dress in Monte Carlo, Plus Five Celebs Who Wore it Best [SLIDESHOW]
Rihanna rocked a tuxedo dress as she performed during the Monte Carlo Sporting Summer Festival on July 10. The concert, held at the Salles des Etoiles, was part of a series of live music acts celebrating 150 years of Monte Carlo SBM.
The "Diamonds" singer looked fantastic in her Balmain tuxedo dress. The sexy, white outfit was tailored perfectly to her figure, with a full, pleated skirt to show off her small waist. The 25-year-old chart-topping singer added a dazzling, multi-coloured bib necklace by Christian Dior. As for her footwear, RiRi chose over-the-knee, satin Manolo Blahnik boots. Not the first shoe of choice when planning a summer concert outfit, but kudos to Rihanna for wearing them well.
The "Pour It Up" singer was in good company. Rihanna isn't the only one who can rock a tuxedo dress. Here are five more celebrities who suited up in style.
In April, Gwyneth Paltrow brought out her fashion guns to promote "Iron Man 3." At a London photo call, the mother-of-two was a lesson in chic, restrained day wear. She got it right with her sleeveless, black-and-white Christian Dior tuxedo dress.
Next on the list is another Dior fan (there will be more). Michelle Williams picked the label to outfit her for an appearance on "Late Night with David Letterman." The "Oz the Great and Powerful" actress aced it in the short, navy number. There's something about the simplicity of a tuxedo dress that makes the wearer leave off the bling. Michelle did just that and completed her look with towering Louboutin pumps.
French actress and Dior model Marion Cotillard showed her loyalty to the fashion house when she stunned in one of Raf Simons's couture creations. Marion looked breathtaking in the navy dress which featured a full, ballet length skirt with petal appliques. Her finishing touch? A simple, yet jaw-dropping white diamond Chopard necklace.
Miley Cyrus, another singer who rocked the tuxedo, would have made the list. Sadly, the "We Can't Stop" singer wore more of a tuxedo jacket than an actual dress. Thankfully, Jennifer Lopez had a white tuxedo dress ready. The former "American Idol" judge looked fierce in her belted outfit.
Finally we have Leelee Sobieski. The former teen actress has found a new career in stepping out in the most fashionable designer attire. For a Christian Dior fashion show, Leelee wore a red, full-skirted tuxedo dress with a gold belt cinching her waist. Divine!
