The Italian heiress Marchesa Casati was known for her wild parties, pet cheetahs and audacious sense of style – which included occasionally slipping on live snakes as necklaces. For a 1922 party, she wore a dress that may have inspired Rihanna’s CFDAs look: a net of diamonds by Worth, with a gold-feather sun headdress set against a diamond tiara. Even her fringe was covered in jewels and glitter.
