Rihanna Shows Off Nipple Ring In Sheer Dress On New Year's (PHOTOS)

While Lady Gaga was changing three times for her New Year's Eve celebration, Rihanna stuck to just one outfit -- with a racy twist.

The Barbadian singer rang in 2012 at P.Diddy's New Year's Eve party in Miami in a sheer black dress with a plummeting neckline that revealed a glimpse of the piercing on her right breast.

It's not like Rihanna's been coy about her risque piercing in the past: we glimpsed it here. And here. And here. And here.

So is Ri-Ri's sheer dress a "wardrobe malfunction," like the Mirror proclaims?

We think it's more just the girl showing off, and with a body like that, we don't blame her.

Check out pics of Rihanna's sexy New Year's style (slightly NFSW!) below.

Now that’s a fashion statement, hope more women start dressing like that, it would defiantly add some spice around the office.

Why doesn't she cut to the chase and put a bone in her nose.

The pale woman in the background has on a beautiful dress, beautiful handbag and gorgeous shoes. But what's with the hair and arm?

I was just thinking the same thing! Her shoes are the truth! Not loving the braids, at all.

A "mal-function"??? Isn't that when something that's not supposed to happen happens?

Exactly. The wardrobe hasn't malfunctioned, Rihanna's brain has.

A malfunction or an HP front story?

Doesn't seem to matter.

So there you have it...white woman in cornrows. When will a hairdresser stand up and tell these women...no can do on you. Looks totally stupid.

Obviously the purpose of the sheer dress was to show off the nipple ring, I don't believe it was a malfunction. It looks nice tough

I'm not sure it looks tough. But I don't believe Rihanna is the one claiming malfunction. HP just needed a better headline than "look at what I see".
