As soon as photographs reached social media, viewers began reacting.
Many comments focused specifically on the construction of Rinna’s dress.
One Instagram user wrote:
“no no no and it’s wrinkled….”
Another person asked:
“So many questions… but why is her dress so wrinkled?”
A different commenter made a point of directing the criticism toward the garment rather than Rinna herself.
“There’s something wrong with the way the top bit is moulded and how it moves – not her – the dress.”
The reactions continued beneath other photographs.

“What’s up with that dress 🧐😳🤣”
Another simply added:
“The top of that is not needed.”

One commenter wrote:
“Her dress is not classy; it’s inappropriate.”
Music AwardsAnother described the appearance as:
“very disrespectful.”
Whether viewers liked the final result or not, Rinna had clearly committed completely to the Madonna-inspired concept.
The platinum-blonde spiked hair, sculptural white bodice, draped fabric, and deliberately provocative detailing ensured that the outfit would be difficult to overlook.
Her willingness to experiment also reflects comments she has recently made about aging and fashion.

Writers Resources“Number one, you got there. You’ve survived long enough in life…and you’re like, Oh, I did it. I made it. And it just feels like you can almost do anything at this point,”
she told InStyle.
She also discussed what she sees as outdated cultural attitudes toward women, beauty, sexuality, and aging.
Music Awards“I think our culture is really stuck in what menopause is about. And that then stops anybody from thinking that a woman in her 60s or 70s is still viable and still sexual and still beautiful. And there’s not enough women’s health research so that we’re informed and we know how to help ourselves.”
