Even Chinese people were bewildered by Rihanna's China-inspired gown.
The singer showed up to New York City's Metropolitan Museum of Art Costume Institute Gala -- which asked stars to honor Chinese fashion this year -- wearing a fur-trimmed yellow cape so massive that it took three handlers to help carry.
That piece, by top Chinese couture designer Guo Pei, was elaborately embroidered with traditional Chinese patterns and required over 50,000 hours to create by hand.
But far from being impressed, many Chinese Internet users made fun of the dress for its resemblance to a Shandong-style fried egg pancake -- or jianbing.??
