“I can compensate for all of my weaknesses with fashion,” Rihanna told the audience. “Fashion should never be frustrating, it should be fun. As long as I can remember, fashion has been my defense mechanism.”

The award was presented to Rihanna by American Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour.

Rihanna also turned a lot of heads with her see-through crystal gown designed Adam Selman.
