Rihanna steals the show with pink feather dress at Crop Over Festival in Barbados

Rihanna has stolen the show at Crop Over festival in Barbados in a bright pink feather dress.

The musician and businesswoman, 31, celebrated at the annual event with friends and family by dancing on a float.

The festival – which is the highlight of Barbados’ summer – is a three month long extravaganza starting in May and culminating on Grand Kadooment Day on August 5th.

It signals the end of the sugar cane season.

Rihanna attends the festival regularly, and posted on Instagram in July confirming she would attend this year.

In an Instagram video, she said: “Breaking news, I’m coming to Barbados for Crop Over this year.”

Rihanna added that she will be appearing at Lost In Paradise, a party held at the festival.
