The singer channeled her Mermaid Barbie character in a sparkling, diamond-embellished gown — that just happened to be completely sheer.

The fishnet Bottega Veneta dress was custom-made and featured a matching silver thong...and pretty much nothing else.

"It's very sparkly and fun, and I just thought it would match my mermaid character in Barbie, so I just went with it," Dua said of her look.

While Dua no doubt looked incredible, the response to her dress was a little mixed, with some fans wishing she had added a pop of pink — or something a little more PG.

"Weren't there like a bunch of kids there 💀💀💀," one fan follower commented on Dua's Instagram.
