The American Music Awards is said to be one of the most anticipated event of the year. It not only aims to give credit to those people who made an impact in the music industry but it is also a glamorous event for guests and artists to show off their jaw-dropping looks on the red carpet.
Some stars arrived in style, strutting down the red carpet in glamorous, timeless fashions. The biggest trend of the night was sequins. We saw sequin dresses in every form last night ranging from dresses covered in sequin textures to fashions simply accented with them. However, some celebs simply hit a sour note when it came to fashion at AMAs.
BEST DRESSED LIST
Selena Gomez
Selena who hosted 2011 European Music Awards in Belfast last month, appeared at the event. She looked very ravishing and resembled all things ‘old-Hollywood” on the red carpet. She wore a champagne colored Giorgio Armani dress with some sky-high Jimmy Choo sandals. I loved her swanky Judith Leiber chain-strap clutch! (Envy LOL)
Jennifer Lopez
JLo,looked chic and sexy in her see-through Giambattista Valli gown. She was honored with Favorite Latin Artist award at the ceremony.
Jennifer rocked a lot of sexy numbers at the awards show. Did you see her in that nude, sequin cat suit on stage with Pitbull? She looked hot!
However, my favorite look of hers for the night was the glittering, fringed Emilio Pucci mini dress. She paired the look with gorgeous Neil Lane jewelry and silver, sparkly Jimmy Choo pumps.
Taylor Swift
Taylor stuck to her normal look in a nude colored Reem Acra sequin gown. However, she changed things up by straightening her signature spirals. She wore a pair of stunning jade-green earrings with this dress that accented it beautifully.
Jennifer Hudson
Jeniffer rocked a metallic mini dress to the 2011 American Music Awards. It was a svelte figure in a metallic Jenny Packham mini dress. The draping on this dress was exquisite as it accentuated her curves in all the right places. She paired this look with black, glitter platform heels and black bangle bracelets. She looked great in it.
Sarah Hyland & Julie Bowen
This hilarious TV duo looked anything but ‘Modern’ on the AMA red carpet. Sarah Hyland kept things flirty and fun in a sequin and studded mini dress with some platform pumps and a fabulous metallic clutch. Her hot on-screen momma showed off her killer bod in a horizontally striped, colorful sequin mini-dress with a stylish messy high bun to top things off.
Vanessa Minnillo
Vanessa, or Mrs. Lachey as we now like to call her, showed off her killer gams in a white draped, sequined one-shoulder mini dress. She paired the look with nude, suede platform pumps and gold earrings for jewelry.
Nicki Minaj
Nicki, didn’t leave the 2011 American Music Awards empty-handed. She was honored two accolades at the ceremony – Favorite Rap/Hip-Hop Artist and Favorite Rap/Hip-Hop Album. The eccentric dresser Nicki opted for a beautiful Oscar de la Renta dress to rock on the red carpet.
WORST DRESSED LIST
Katy Perry
We know Katy is a fan of showing off her, ahem, assets. But with the ill-fit of this dress, Mizz P is one sneeze away from having a wardrobe malfunction! Besides the too tight-in-all-the-wrong-places gown, the American Music Awards 2011 nominee’s shoes are just too over-the-top with the cotton candy hair and graphic-print of the frock.
Soulja Boy
Soulja Boy looked, well, like a little boy on the 2011 AMAs red carpet. The rapper’s tricked-out sneakers and wild, printed shirt and backwards cap were way too juvenile for a red carpet.
Mary J. Blige
Mary J was a hot, animal-print mess on the 2011 AMAs red carpet. The look is just too loud, and the missing sleeve just adds to all the craziness.
Karmin
We gotta give Karmin’s Amy props for taking risks with color at the 2011 AMAs. However, the ensemble doesn’t quite work. For starters, the wedges look vaguely orthopedic and clownish. And sadly, the frilly top and the black skirt looks severely mismatched.
Ellie Goulding
Elle was a cautionary tale of how to not to appropriately dress your body on the 2011 AMAs red carpet. The belly-baring ensemble cheapened the look, while the white hair, pearl earrings and demure heels aged the young singer.
Heidi Klum
Heidi hit the red carpet in this futuristic Giles Deacon dress. Although that’s a bodysuit behind the cut outs, we really feel like we’re just looking at her underwear. And that is a guaranteed way to make it into a worst dressed list.
Well, more to come ! I have a lot of errands to do for now 😀
