The 2016 BRIT Awards kicked off in typical style on Wednesday night, as the biggest stars of the music and showbiz worlds descended on London's O2 Arena.
Leading the way on the red carpet were the likes of superstar singers and international icons Rihanna, Kylie Minogue and Adele, who was the first winner of the night with the British Female Solo Artist gong.
Rihanna, 28, rocked a beautifully feminine look for the night ahead of her live performance during the show, wowing in a layered and very pretty lilac dress with a low plunging neckline for maximum cleavage-baring.

The Work hitmaker showed off her svelte yet ample curves in the body-skimming dress, which had an almost seashell-like effect all over it.
Its plunging neckline dropped down from spaghetti straps, allowing her to show off her decolletage and braless chest, and she pulled the look together with her raven dresses worn poker straight in a sharp bob.

It was cleavages on show all-round for the Hair hitmakers, with each and every one of them opting for plunging and daring attire, with Leigh-Anne almost suffering a wardrobe malfunction.

Meanwhile, pop star and Britain's Got Talent judge Alesha Dixon oozed all kinds of sex appeal in her racy ensemble, comprised of a sheer top with a short skirt a slick glitzy jacket.
She showed off a liberal amount of skin in her bodycon number, revealing her endless legs to their best advantage, as she was joined by her handsome partner Azuka Onoye.

Meanwhile, one of the first to arrive, Laura Whitmore - who was recently romantically linked to Leonardo DiCaprio - looked typically stunning in a spider-web effect LBD that allowed her to flaunt her fantastic pins as she arrived before everyone else, as this year's official red carpet reporter.
She showed off almost every inch of her toned, slender figure in the dazzling garment, which was cut very high on her thighs and finished with a feather-effect skirt.
The body of the fitted dress allowed flashes of her skin to show through the sheer weaved fabric, and her modesty was covered with a textured matte black design over her chest and hips.
Irish star Laura, who is known for hosting the I'm A Celebrity spin-off show and also works for MTV, completed her working look with a chunky black choker around her neck and her blonde mane teased into stylish waves, while wearing a heavy smoky shadow to accentuate her pale blue eyes.

The 43-year-old ex-Spice Girl's notably classy look made her stand out from the crowd, the dress skimming her curves down to her knees. She finished off her eveningwear with a pair of classic pointed patent court shoes in nude, and wore her brunette locks down, tumbling over her shoulders.
Looking drop dead gorgeous and following shortly behind her was Abbey Clancy. The statuesque beauty, 30, stunned in a metallic mini dress that left little of her enviable frame to the imagination.

Doing it for the model beauties on the red carpet were Toni Garrn and Lily Donaldson, who flashed perhaps the most amount of leg on the night in a seductive split black dress.
Leonardo DiCaprio's ex-girlfriend Toni, 23, was a sight for sore eyes in her almost entirely sheer black dress that included cut-out details on the front of the shoulders and was completely backless.
While the German model preserved some of her modesty with a pair of black knickers, she opted to go braless, flashing plenty of skin under the glare of the camera flashes.

Black was the order of the day for Fearne, 34, and Caroline, 36, but they each went for completely different styles, with the former in a racy cut-out dress and the latter in a chic cropped jumpsuit.
And 45-year-old Susanna wowed as she flaunted her famous curves in a snug glizy red dress, the hard metal-effect garment showing off her ample cleavage thanks to its vest top-style design.

Stars of the music world including Florence Welch, Duran Duran's Simon Le Bon - joined by his wife Yasmin - and Lana Del Rey were also out in force.

Elsewhere, Anais Gallagher - the daughter of Oasis rocker Noel - showed off a touch of androgynous style in a lilac suit with flared trousers.

Singer Tallia Storm looked lovely in a bold and sharply-cut little black dress, covered in a delicate glitzy embellishment all over in silvers and golds, hinting that it was a Balmain design.

The 21-year-old beauty posed up a storm on the red carpet, having added a stylish pair of strappy red heels to complete her simple but effective look for the evening.
However, it was slightly awkward as TOWIE star Jessica Wright rocked up in exactly the same dress minutes after Maya, along with her brother Mark.
The biggest event of the year in the British music industry's calendar is being hosted for the last time by Ant and Dec, after they revealed last week that they will be stepping down as its presenters: this will be their third time hosting, as they also presented in 2015 and 2001.
But fans will no doubt be expecting their unique brand of giddy and cheeky hosting of the famously raucous show.

The night would see perhaps one of its best musical line-ups in recent years, with homegrown stars Adele, Little Mix, Coldplay, James Bay and Jess Glynne being joined on stage by international hitmakers Rihanna, The Weeknd and Justin Bieber.
Pictures of some of the acts - including Little Mix, Coldplay and James Bay - were revealed earlier on Wednesday, showing them rehearsing ahead of their big live moment.
While there were initially fears that Rihanna, 28, wouldn't be able to perform at the BRITs after cancelling her Grammys performance last Monday at the last minute due to illness, it seems as though the star will be taking to the stage.

2012 saw Rihanna’s stunning rendition of We Found Love while the 2016 performance will come ahead of her huge UK stadium tour in June.
Adele, 27, will be hoping for a better performance back on home turf following her Grammys performance, which was marred with technical issues.

It will be the Hello singer's first time performing at the BRITs since 2012, when she roused the audience - and the nation - with a haunting rendition of her mega-hit Someone Like You.
Hot hopeful Adele leads this year's nods with four BRIT nominations. She is also one of the favourites for the BRITs Global Success Award, which is based on international sales success and would mean she could walk away with five awards on the night – something no artist has yet managed in one fell swoop.
Joining Adele with four nominations is James Bay (Best British Male Solo Artist, British Breakthrough Act, British Single and MasterCard British Album of the Year) and Years & Years (British Group, British Breakthrough, British Single and British Artist Video of the Year).

While Coldplay, Jamie xx, Mark Ronson, Florence + The Machine, Ed Sheeran and Ellie Goulding have all earned two nominations.
If Coldplay win both their categories (British Group and Album of the Year) they'll become the most successful artist in BRIT history in both Best Album and British Group – they are currently tied with Arctic Monkeys on three wins each in both categories.
Getting ready: Singer James Bay - who is nominated for four awards - looked in great spirits as he rehearsed before the show
Hopeful: The singer got into the swing of things before the ceremony - James is nominated forBest British Male Solo Artist, British Breakthrough Act, British Single and MasterCard British Album of the Year

Little Mix meanwhile have picked up their first ever BRIT Award nominations for their video for Black Magic as well as a chance a British Single for the same track.
