Her break up from James Packer was far from cordial.

And it seems Mariah Carey has turned the experience into art - burning her wedding dress in the new video for her track I Don't.

The 46-year-old singer's new song featuring rapper YG, whose legal name is Keenon Daequan Ray Jackson, was written as a response to her recent breakup with ex-fiancé and Australian billionaire Packer.

A casual day for Mariah usually consists of full hair and makeup, 6 inch stilettos and a floor length gown from her stockpile of Alaia dresses. (Celebrities! They're just like us!)

So we could have bet our last dollar that Mariah Carey was not going to disappoint in the style stakes when it came to dressing for her latest music video.

And of course she did not disappoint, wearing this stunning red gown by Bao Tranchi-- a favorite label for performers thanks to their brazen approach to sex appeal.

Made with layers of sheer stretch fabric, this mermaid dress leaves little to the imagination which is EXACTLY how Mariah likes it. She showcased her decolletage and showed much more than that with the criss-cross cutouts that ran the length of Mariah's thighs.

The good news? If you're looking to steal this jawdropping look, you can easily do so with a simple click to your right and deficit of $1700. (!)

But if you're inspired to make like Mariah for less, then why don't you take a look at the more affordable alternatives in the edit below!

Mariah wears leather and lace in the steamy video clip, which was released on Friday.

In the video, the Always Be My Baby singer rolled around on top of a convertible in alternating white lace bridal underwear and black leather as she sang about how her lover probably thinks she's coming back, but is dead wrong.

'Cause when you love someone / You just don't treat them bad,' she sang in her breakup ballad. 'You messed up all we had /Probably think I'm coming back, but I dont.'

Mariah clutched fistfuls of white tulle while she laid back on a bed of black pillows.

Part of the teaser for the song featured a title screen with the words 'I Don't' in gold and silver glitter, with the letters spelling out 'I do' strategically emphasized. 

The tulle gown was then thrust into the fire, as Mariah  strutted around in a red hot gown, complete with plunging neckline and lace up sides.

Mariah and James met in 2014 and dated for a bit before he eventually proposed to her in January of 2016, according to People magazine. 

But things turned sour and the couple called it quits just before the Grammy winner's E! docu-series, Mariah's World, premiered in December 2016.

Sunday's episode featured the celebrated singer recording the song, in perfectly planned timing for the single to drop

'Ever since the [latest] tour wrapped I took some time just to process my feelings and I started writing a song to express what I’ve been going through,' she explained on her show.

'And if you’re not getting the love that you need from someone that you’re supposed to be in a real relationship with, then why remain in that situation?' 

The end: But things turned sour and the couple called it quits just before the Grammy winner's E! docu-series, Mariah's World, premiered in December 2016
