NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: Rihanna arrived at the red carpet of the 2023 Met Gala wearing an unusual sweeping white gown by Maison Valentino for this year’s theme ‘Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty’ in honor of late German fashion designer Karl Lagerfeld. But what grabbed the attention was the structured ivory top covered in rosettes.

Arriving last on the red carpet, alongside her beau A$AP Rocky, Rihanna showed off her monochromatic look with fingerless-gloved hands and then removed her rosette-covered top, revealing a slip gown that featured spaghetti straps and a daring plunging neckline and showcased her baby bump. However, many were quick to troll with one writing, “Rihanna really made us wait all this time just for her to look like fancy whipped cream." Another said, "She looks like some buttercream icing." While one of many wrote, "Rihanna looks like whipped cream I love it."
