The Last Dinner Party

The famed British Indie rock band brought the attitude outside the arena, dressing in a series of daring statement looks. Bandmate Abigial Morris opted for a long white gown with “I’m only here for your entertainment” bolded across the front. Meanwhile, Lizzie Mayland appeared fearless in a see-through black gown with a wild petal brooch. Emily Roberts chose to don a baby pink bustier with multi-buckle platform stompers and pale white bloomers. Georgia Davies kept her look achromatic with a satin mini corset dress and shinpad black boots. Lastly, Aurora Nishevci stunned in an oxblood bustier with matching feathers detailing the top and a contrasting fabric wrapped as a skirt.

Fleur East

The 36-year-old artist craddled her baby bump on the carpet, donning a tight-fitting brown jumpsuit with a bedazzled gold top with a low turtleneck. Adding even more spice to the look, Fleur threw on a black layered shawl, dangly gold earrings, and pointed-toe pumps.

St Vincent

For the 2024 Brit Awards, the American singer showed up in a navy blue blazer dress, with a maroon fringe skirt layered on top. The artist added sheer tights, black pointed-toe heels, and a silver Prada clutch to complete the look.

Rebecca Ferguson

The singer-songwriter struck a pose on the red carpet in a pink and white houndstooth suit paired with a tailored mini skirt and a fitted jacket. Ferguson decorated the two-piece ensemble with a white belt and jeweled brooch.

Tallia Storm

The Glasgow-born singer, who rose to fame after being discovered by Sir Elton John in 2012, donned a jacket printed with the Union Jack. She completed the look with an unbuttoned collared shirt, see-through tights, and chunky platform black heels.

Yinka Bokinni

The British television host confirmed she is pregnant on the red carpet, posing for the cameras in an elegant green satin halterneck gown. Bokinni paired the showstopping dress with platform silver, open-toe heels.

Stepz

The British rapper cut a fine figure when he arrived at the venue in a sharp black velvet jacket, matching turtleneck, and trousers.

Natasha Bedingfield

The New Zealand singer sparkled in a dark gown adorned with rhinestone detailing and midsection cutouts. The “Unwritten” hitmaker paired the dazzling look with a black long-sleeve overcoat featuring a layered tulle train.

Zara McDermott

The former Love Island star stunned in a red hot lace halter gown. She upped the drama by pairing the dress with matching opera gloves and a rose embellisment in the middle of her chest.

Layton Williams

Williams arrived outside the arena in a striking lime green pinstripe suit featuring a distinguished oversized lapel. The singer and Strictly Come Dancing star is one of the red carpet hosts for the evening.
