Brit Awards 2023: Barely-there red carpet looks as stars sparkle in sheer and keyhole outfits and even a bikini in February

Zara McDermott was among the stars leading the barely-there red carpet looks at the The BRIT Awards. Documentary maker and former Love Island star Zara looked sensational as she attended London's O2 Arena on Saturday.

The 26-year-old reality TV personality sparkled in a nude-shade sequinned gown for the star-studded awards. Zara, who was an Islander on the fourth series of the ITV dating contest in 2018, teamed her keyhole detail dress with black heels.

She kept her makeup to a similar champagne-shade pallette with a bronzy glow. Her figure-hugging dress showcased Zara's gym-honed curves and she wore her honeyed tresses in flowing waves for the awards, which will see the likes of Cheshire's Harry Styles, rock band Wet Leg and Sam Smith leading this year's nominations.

Also wowing on the red carpet was Scottish singer Tallia Storm, 24, who shrugged off the chilly February temperature in a bubblegum pink bikini at London’s O2 Arena. For added warmth, Tallia added a matching pink fluffy hat, coordinating huge snow boots and handbag and a shaggy cream coat.

Pussycat Doll Ashley Roberts had flashbulbs popping in a metallic silver bandeau top with a split-to-the-thigh ruffled detail matching skirt. Her ensemble showcased her incredible abs as Ashley, 41, grinned and pouted for the cameras.

This year’s Brit Awards take place on a Saturday for the first time. Mo Gilligan takes on hosting duties with As It Was hitmaker Harry fresh from his Grammys success with album Harry’s House. Little Mix Singer Leigh-Anne Pinnock also turned heads in a daring, plunging to the midriff orange gown.

Louise Redknapp picked a pop of cheerful colour with a bright pink mini dress, after teasing that she might recreate her Brits look from 1997. She hit headlines with a head of brunette curls when she presented an award with Gary Barlow. This time Louise wore her tresses in short blonde waves.

Sam Smith also made waves as they arrived in an inflatable latex outfit. Rather than barely there, Sam went extra as they dressed head-to-toe in black.

Sam, who has made headlines recently with their racy performances, donned £4,000 vase trousers as part of their head-turning look. The star, whose hits include Dancing With a Stranger and Unholy, paired the unusual outfit with a pair of towering heels.
