Rihanna embraced the ‘Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination’ theme at the Metropolitan Museum of Art on Monday in New York City.

The 30-year-old entertainer reigned over the Met Gala in a white beaded Maison Margiela by John Galliano corset mini dress under a full skirt.
To complete her pope attire, she accessorized with a beaded bishop’s hat, embellished Christian Louboutin pumps, and jewelry by Maria Tash, Gilan, and Narcia Pheres.

We prefer this look to Nicki Minaj’s Catholic-inspired outfit at the 2012 Grammy Awards. How about you?
