Rihanna is famous for her barely there attire, but her tiny babydoll dress was something else entirely.
The
26-year-old singer evoked the spirit of the precocious nymphet in
Lolita as she headed to designer Adam Selman's presentation during New
York Fashion Week on Friday.
Rihanna's
simply-styled, sleeveless dress with the flaring mini hemline harked
back to the 1990s when they were all the rage, but she made it her own
with a few additions.

wore her hair casually piled on top of her head, which kept her neck
cool on this late summer day as she went about her eventful day.
