Charli XCX, Dua Lipa and Teddy Swims are among the stars walking the red carpet at this year’s Brit Awards tonight (Saturday 1 March).
The annual ceremony is being held at the O2 Arena in London, where comedian Jack Whitehall is playing host to some of the biggest artists across pop, rock and rap.
While the Brits red carpet isn’t necessarily known for the most avant garde of fashion choices, a number of attendees opted for some surprisingly bold looks.

Here are some of the most daring looks at this year’s ceremony.
Sabrina Carpenter
US pop singer Sabrina Carpenter, one of 2024’s biggest breakout stars, looked sensational in a floor-length baby pink gown with a fishtail and train, ruched skirt and sparkling silver embellishments, complete with a dazzling diamond necklace and rings, and her blonde hair loose in long curls.
Teddy Swims
The rapper and singer turned heads with a suit embellished with dozens of plush toys, including sharks, monkeys, dogs and teddy bears, plus a giant unicorn with sequinned hooves.
Will Njobvu
The TV presenter and podcast host looked fantastic in an all-black ensemble of a skirt and cropped blazer, with black patent leather or faux-leather boots, accessorised with a studded choker and silver metal detailing.
Maura Higgins
Love Island star Maura Higgins opted for a dramatic black, floor-length sheer gown with bright floral detailing.
Joe Keery
The Stranger Things actor and musician, who is set to release his new album The Crux next month under his moniker Djo, opted for a smart casual look with dark jeans, boots and a colourful knit and pinstripe blazer.
CMAT
Irish singer CMAT looked fantastic in a gold dress with black diamond pattern and black bustier, paired with gold jewel-studded choker, earrings and a fur coat.
Pioneering pop artist Charli XCX dominates this year’s ceremony with five nominations, including for Artist of the Year and Album of the Year for her critically lauded, trend-setting record Brat.
Following with four nods apiece are acts including pop singer Dua Lipa, baroque pop band The Last Dinner Party, and Mercury Prize-winning jazz group Ezra Collective.
The Song of the Year category was arguably the most diverse – at least in terms of genre – set of nominations in recent memory, with TikTok-friendly stars like Artemas and KSI muscling up against The Beatles and Coldplay.
