Rihanna captivated the red carpet at the 55th Annual Grammys in February, where she wore a custom red Alaia dress that almost violated the dress code. 

While performing at a concert in Germany in December, she wore a head-to-toe Lanvin look that had barely left the runway. 

In a head-to-toe leather look from Damir Doma, Rihanna attended an album release event. 

Her onstage outfits regularly channel vintage Madonna in their provocative nature. 

Rihanna was on trend in a Raf Simons coat in late 2012. 

Recognize this dress? It's the same Calvin Klein that caused controversy in "Clueless." With this silhouette, you can see why it turns heads. 

She looked elegant in a Miu Miu crop top ensemble. 

Pajamas on the red carpet? RiRi hit up the 40/40 Club opening in a loose fitting ensemble that showed her toned stomach. 

Rihanna debuted her newly shorn locks at the 2012 MTV VMAs in a summer chic white Adam Selman gown. 

She showed off her killer legs at the premiere of her film debut "Battleship" in an Adam Selman dress. 

She stole the show at the 2012 Met Gala in a crocodile dress by Tom Ford. 

In a racy crop top and shorts combo at Coachella in 2012. 

Plunging neckline? Sequins? Rihanna will wear it. Here she is in Givenchy at the 2012 Brit Awards. 

Although she was attending a Stella McCartney presentation, she looked effortlessly sexy in Giorgio Armani. 

She rocked a plunging neckline and thigh high slit in a Giorgio Armani gown at the 2012 Grammys. 

Rihanna looked cutting edge in a strapless Bottega Veneta pantsuit. 

She stunned onstage in Madrid in a skimpy rainbow bikini. 

She took a risk in a bright feathered top at the launch of her perfume Reb'l Fleur in 2011. 

She looked sleek and chic in a menswear inspired look by Max Azria at the 2011 Billboard Awards. 

Rihanna turned heads with a fishtail braid and a revealing Stella McCartney dress at the 2011 Met Gala. 

RiRi was on the starting end of the crop top trend. 

Although this colored ball gown doesn't reflect her typical style, it's Dior haute couture, which is what she's all about. 

At the 53rd annual Grammys, she killed it in Jean Paul Gaultier straight off the runway. 

She celebrated with her RocNation crew at a pre-Grammy brunch and showed off a sexy red afro. 

Clad in a futuristic Alexandre Vauthier bottle green jumpsuit, she took Germany's Echo Music Awards by storm back in 2010.

It’s hard to believe that Rihanna turns a mere 25 years old today. The Barbadian songstress has accomplished a great deal in her career, and is one of the most popular celebrities around—thanks in part to her controversial behavior from the on-and-off relationship with Chris Brown to her noted affection for marijuana (both of which are liberally documented on her Instagram).

Apart from her perpetual behind-the-scenes drama, we’ve always kept a keen eye on Rihanna’s on-point fashion sense. Whether she’s bringing the crop top to the forefront (which she definitely did), or wearing what can only be described as skimpy silk pajamas on a red carpet, you can always count on RiRi to deliver a killer look in the most effortless way possible.

So, in honor of Rihanna’s 25th birthday, we couldn’t help but round up 25 of her most provocative fashion moments for your viewing pleasure.
