Lizzo Rules the Internet in Sheer Sparkling Dress She Wore to Cardi B's Birthday Party

By Alyssa Fikse

Lizzo is unmatched in the style department, and her latest fashion choice is turning a lot of heads. The "Rumors" singer attended Cardi B's 29th birthday party on Monday night, and she wore a jaw-dropping, sheer Matthew Reisman Collection dress that was completely covered In crystals. Lizzo matched the gown with two different pairs of Jimmy Choos — stiletto heels and silver tennis shoes — as well as some sparkly butterfly clips in her high ponytail.

The "Juice" singer shared some photos and videos on Instagram alongside some cheeky captions. Lizzo shared a video showing off the see-through gown, writing "A soft twerk to bless ya timeline" with a peach emoji and sparkle emoji. She also posted some photos from after the party, writing "Mood when ur too drunk to function at the function."
