Rihanna’s third annual Diamond Ball churned out one stylish look after another, thanks to stylish guests and the host herself. From fairytale gowns to slinky dresses, it was a feast for the senses as celebrities stepped out in support of the Clara Lionel Foundation.

Here are some of the most memorable looks from the event.

1. Emily Ratajkowski in Vintage Chanel

All eyes were on Emily, who debuted a sleek straight bob while clad in a vintage black Chanel dress from Shrimpton Couture. Never one to shy away from flashing some skin, Emily’s strapless gown featured a dangerously low neckline that showed off her decolletage. She completed her ensemble with David Webb jewelry, a black clutch and black sandals.

2. La La Anthony in Yousef Ali-Jasmi

The 38-year-old television personality shimmered in a dramatic see-through dress from Yousef Ali-Jasmi, which featured beaded embellishments, a whole lot of fringe and a center rear vent that showed off her pointed-toe pumps. A sleek center-parted updo, minimal makeup and bold red nails capped off her look.

The 20-year-old model stood out in her bright red halter dress from Brandon Maxwell, which featured a sexy open back and a floor-length skirt, giving us a tiny glimpse of her open-toed heels. Simplicity was the key to Imaan’s look, which she finished off with minimal makeup and loose curls.
