In a star-studded event from the UK music and fashion industry, but not only, the BRIT Awards 2023 took place last night (Saturday) at the 02 Arena in London.
The highly anticipated annual event celebrates first and foremost the biggest successes in the local scene, and in addition the glittering platform is even used to showcase and promote new talent.
With the most nominated solo show, plus a fine performance he gave on stage, Harry Styles is once again one of the best dressed of the night.
Among the celebs who joined him on the Brits red carpet were Lizzo who looked so golden, Jessie J revealed her impressive pregnant belly in a red ensemble, and Shania Twain continues to celebrate her return to the headlines and the spotlight.
But the one who stole the show is without a doubt Sam Smith who managed to (again) turn heads, and this time with a daring performance in a bizarre wail, which needed a moment or two to digest the play.

Smith who was nominated for two awards admittedly lost both to Harry Styles, but no one will forget his fashion statement on the red carpet tonight.
The 30-year-old singer, who identifies as non-binary, wore an inflatable sculptural jumpsuit made of a latex-like material, which made it quite difficult for him to move around on the red carpet, let alone dance.
Arms, shoulders and legs were puffed up into a balloon look, and for the super bold look Smith teamed up with platform boots and black gloves.
Designer Harri, who created the extravagant outfit, said he wanted to create an image for Smith that people had never seen him in, and this after the singer recently received countless hateful comments about his body image.

Jessie J
34-year-old Jessie J, who embraces an Israeli partner (basketball player Hanan Coleman), was proud of her magnificent baby bump when she was injured for the first time in a decade on the red carpet of the Brits.
The pregnant singer slipped into an opaque lace red jumpsuit, which boasted a dedicated button on the front, and even stepped on red pointed-toe stilettos.
To top off the sexy maternity look, she paired matching gloves, threw on a long cape with dramatic voluminous sleeves, and clutched a gold clutch embellished with a bell-like design.
A few hours later Jay announced on her Instagram account that she was expecting a boy.

Harry Styles
With four nominations at the BRIT Awards, all eyes were on Harry Styles (29) and the oversized black flower, which even covered part of his face, when he took to the red carpet in a custom-designed black suit from the fashion house Nina Ricci.
The fine velvet suit included a peplum-cut jacket a la tuxedo with a wide satin collar, long pedalo pants that covered the shoes, and the highlight of the performance - a collar around his neck decorated with an oversized black flower.

Shania Twain
Shania Twain spends her comeback year performing on stages as well as on covered red carpets, and does not give up any opportunity to stand out far and wide.
To the red carpet in London, Twain arrived beaming in canary yellow.
The 57-year-old legendary singer wore a maxi dress with a rather solid but edgy design by the fashion house Saint Laurent, from the Resort 2023 collection. To spice up her excellent performance, she was drenched in Messika diamond jewelry - earrings, necklace and bracelets, and added a few more inches to her height with a pair of heels golden

Lizo
She may not be British, but the 34-year-old Lizo, who has signed some of the biggest hits in recent years, was a nail on the red carpet tonight in a larger-than-life golden performance.
The singer wore a deep copper metallic gown designed by Robert Wun - one-shoulder, flattering gathers and ankle-length, which wonderfully wrapped around her curves.
Above her, Lizo wore a gilded sculpted cape with a raised collar.
The makeup and hair were meticulous and beautiful, and in terms of accessories she chose one long golden earring, and wore black sandals with thin straps.

Salma Hayek
The ageless 56-year-old actress looked sexier than ever on the red carpet in an asymmetric leather ensemble that gave her a rock star look.
The electrifying performance featured a black corset with a sheer décolletage panel, and a leather skirt that appeared to be a converted biker jacket, complete with zippers, buckles and other frills.
To complete the bold look, Hayek combined fishnet tights and lace-up platform boots for the performance.
