Rihanna goes uncensored again! The madcap fashionista drove in nearly naked to the 2014 CFDA Fashion Awards at New York’s Lincoln Center on Monday that got everyone in attendance gasping for some air.

Rihanna turned heads and ensured that all eyes were on her as she strutted down the red carpet of the 2014 CFDA Awards in golden stilettos and a racy sheer embellished halter dress that left little to the imagination.

The glittering, entirely see-through, fishnet slip dress, customized by designer Adam Selman, consisted 216,000 Swarovski crystals. But even those gleaming studs could do nothing to hide her bare nipples or nude G-string underwear that she so boldly put on display.

While the outfit was designed to shock the daylights out of the star gazers (quite literally!), there is no denying that the singer looked quite a dish in smokey eyes, nude lips, metallic scarf, fur stole, sheer elbow-length gloves, limited edition cats eye moonstone and diamond earrings and an imperial topaz and diamond ring. Sultry!

All said and done, this isn't Rihanna's first rodeo. The 26-year-old “Diamond” singer has bared it all before. But on Monday night, she brought it big time. However, she strategically covered up her front while posing for the shutterbugs with her fur wrap.

And guess what? Rihanna picked the trophy for the Fashion Icon Award at the event. Wow! After all, what could be a better way to felicitate the fashionable, fun and fearless Rihanna when it comes to her sartorial experiments. Rihanna's latest red-carpet entry surely takes the phrase "jaw-dropping" to the next level.
