Rihanna's poofy pink gown from last night's Grammys has inspired a series of hilarious internet memes.
After the 26-year-old singer deputed her empire-waisted Giambattista Valli dress on the red carpet, it has been compared to everything from a shower loofah to one of Nicki Minaj's wigs.
While the polarizing gown has earned Rihanna spots on both best and worst dressed lists, her look faced enormous amounts of ridicule on the internet
Commenters took to social media to point out that Rihanna's dress looked like something a teenager would wear to her Quinceañera, an elaborate 15th birthday celebration that is popular in Latin American communities.
The star's image was creatively edited into numerous party photos, as well as onto birthday invitations.
Some critics noted that her enormous ruffled gown resembled a doll cake topper, while others compared is to a shower loofah.
'I'd like to note the fact that @Rihanna looks like the @Barbie cake from my 4th birthday party,' one person tweeted.
Rihanna's image was added to a picture of Nick Minaj wearing a pink wig.
Her photos were also edited to look like cotton candy, as well as a lace parasol umbrella.
Rihanna told Ryan Seacrest that she had purchased her gown 'on the internet' after seeing it and 'falling in love'.
One Twitter user wrote: 'Good to know that Rihanna makes bad decisions while shopping on the Internet too.'
The star struggled with her voluminous dress throughout the night and had to continuously pull up the heavy gown, which was adorned with plaited silver embellishments on the top and bottom of its satin bustier.
Although her dress was the butt of many jokes, Rihanna's make-up and hair were flawless.
The star's skin had a bronzed glow and her sleek bun was the perfect coif for her somewhat overwhelming gown.
During her red carpet appearance, photographers captured Rihanna sharing a sweet moment with Beyonce and Jay-Z's daughter Blue Ivy.
The singer was seen crouching down and embracing the little girl - who was also wearing a pink ruffled gown.
Rihanna's look was clearly popular with the youngsters.
She happily posed for a photo with Jamie Foxx's daughter Annalise Bishop, who was also a fan of her puffy ensemble.
During the ceremony, Kanye West and Paul McCartney joined her on stage to perform their song FourFiveSeconds.
It was their first live television performance of the song, which will be featured on Rihanna’s upcoming album.
Following the Grammy's, Rihanna changed into a navy jumpsuit by London based label Galvan and headed to Los Angeles hot spot 1OAK.
She kept her hair up and make-up natural, accessorizing her cleavage-baring one piece with white single-strap sandals featuring diamond details.
Rihanna was recently photographed swimming alongside three sand tiger sharks and other sea creatures at the Florida Aquarium in Tampa for the March issue of Harper's Bazaar.
The cover star told the magazine that she does her 'best to avoid the sharks of life' and noted that her 'thick skin' is what helps her deal with her critics.
'This skin has been developing since my first day at school,' she said. 'It didn’t happen after fame. I couldn’t survive fame if I didn’t already have it.'
Rihanna continued: 'So sometimes the toughest thing in life is to be vulnerable. I’m not generally a sensitive person, but I tend to be more sensitive toward others and what they’re going through. I don’t know if that’s the healthiest thing, but it’s the truth.”
