Rihanna stole the show upon her arrival at the star-studded 2024 Footwear News Achievement Awards in New York City on Wednesday night.

The nine-time Grammy Award-winner, 36 — who hasn’t put out an album in nearly a decade — wowed in a plunging white collared gown that showed off her ample cleavage.

A daring slit up the front of the frock exposed her shapely legs and sky-high wrap heels that wound up her calves.

The dress also had an elegant train that trailed behind Rihanna as she made her way down the FNAA red carpet.

The glamorous billionaire was joined by her rapper boyfriend A$AP Rocky, 35.

The beloved Hollywood couple — who share two young sons — packed on the PDA for the cameras.
