She's no stranger to courting controversy with her outfits.

But on Thursday night Rihanna took things to a whole new level as she arrived at Eden nightclub in Hollywood wearing a completely see-through dress.

The 24-year-old singer went bra-less for the night out, with the sheer fabric of her ensemble showing her skimpy black underwear beneath.

Rihanna let her incredible figure take centre stage with her outfit choice, keeping her make-up simple with just a slick of red lipstick, and wearing her hair down and to the side.

The Diamonds singer finished off the outfit with a pair of pink and gold toe-cap heels, complete with an ankle strap.

Rihanna is enjoying some time off ahead of the start of her Diamonds world tour, which kicks off on March 8th.

The svelte star has been working hard to perfect her dance routines before things begin, and tweeted pictures of herself in the studio earlier this week.

However, Rihanna caused controversy with the shots, which showed her puffing away on a suspicious-looking cigarette during a break.

So it's hardly surprising that Girls creator Lena Dunham came forward earlier this week to accuse the star of being a bad role model for young women.

The 26-year-old actress and comedienne hit out at the singer for posting inappropriate content on her Instagram site that can be seen by her young fans.

She said: 'Fame is an amazing thing and it's a platform that you have to take seriously. Which is why sometimes, it's like. . . I used to be really into Rihanna, that pop star, and then it's like - again, I don't want to ever throw stones from my glass house - but I follow her on Instagram and I just think about how many little girls beyond what I could even comprehend are obsessed with Rihanna.

'Like, you know, she left Barbados, she's had this amazing career, she's won a Grammy. . . She's talented. And then she gets back together with Chris Brown and posts a million pictures of them smoking marijuana together on a bed. And it cracks my heart in half in a way that makes me feel like I'm 95 years old.'
