The Grammy-winning singer likely gave other guests whiplash when she waltzed into the party wearing a formfitting minidress that featured numerous cutouts and was held together by just three metallic rings. Covered in a blue and black tropical print, the sexy design hails from Louisa Ballou, whose dresses have popped up on the ‘grams of Chloe Bailey, Dua Lipa, and SZA, to name a few famous fashionistas.
