The 27-year-old Barbadian beauty could not have looked more regal in the low-cut vintage Christian Dior dress, complimented by a dazzling, jewel-encrusted necklace.
Rihanna pulled out all the stops for the star-studded charity gala, which supports the Clara Lionel Foundation -- an organization she founded in 2012 in honor of her grandparents, Clara and Lionel Brathwaite -- that works to improve the quality of life for underprivileged communities across the globe.
Rihanna spoke with ET’s Kevin Frazier on the red carpet, where she opened up about her grandmother, who died of cancer in 2012.
"She is definitely here in spirit and she feels delighted to be a part of such a great cause, raising money in her honor, to help, save and change many lives," Rihanna said.
The "Diamonds" singer also took the opportunity to make Majesty -- the 18-month-old daughter of Rihanna's cousin, Noella Alstrom -- feel like a superstar.

"Majesty is a feisty one, just like all the woman in my family," Rihanna gushed to ET. "She already has her personalities. It’s so cute."
While she was open about how much she loved her little cousin, Rihanna was a bit more reserved when it came to discussing her long-awaited album ANTI,and when fans can expect to be able to pick it up.
"The album is coming soon!" Rihanna promised, without giving away any specifics.
