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.
She also showed off a pair of barely-there silver heeled sandals and a smattering of Asprey jewellery, covering her heavily tattooed hands and wrists.
Making an scene-stealing appearance was newly-engaged Kylie Minogue, who arrived on the arm of her new fiance Joshua Sasse.
