Grammy Best Dressed Ever

Jennifer Lopez, Versace, 2000: ‘The Dress', as it is famously remembered, on any other body would have been common. But JLo made exposure classy in this printed number, and for once drew attention to something other than her famous rear

Katy Perry, Basil Soda, 2009: Risktaker Katy, who has a soft spot for pink, skated on thin ice with this sheath. The saving grace – diamonds, a girl's best friend

Shakira, Carolina Herrera, 2007: Shakira's hips certainly don't lie in this fire engine red column. It's rare to see her look this elegant – more, please!

Gwyneth Paltrow, Versace, 2009: This is how a rockstar's wife should look. Metallic minidress, opaque legs and Roger Vivier clutch – we rest our case

Heidi Klum, Kaufman Franco , 2010: Heidi showed what it takes to be a supermodel in this teensy, sequined number, looking effortless yet sexy

Carrie Underwood, Georges Chakra, 2010: The Grammy red carpet is where Carrie really gets into her fashion groove. In her third appearance on this list, she wears stylish white without looking like she's ready for a walk down the aisle

Carrie Ann Inaba, Nikolaki, 2010: The Dancing with the Stars judge's Origami-esque black dress is sweet and elegant in equal measures.

Rihanna, Roberto Cavalli, 2007: This was how RiRi used to look before she went all edgy and fashion forward on us. Sigh, nostalgia!

Nicole Scherzinger, 2007: The Pussycat Doll added a dash of colour to the carpet in this summery dress. We loved her minimal jewellery and make up, we also loved that she didn't show more skin

Jessica Simpson, 2008: Back when Jess used to be a hotbod, she could wear, and look good in, skintight black. The glittering straps take the dress from blah to banging

Lea Michele, Romona Keveza, 2010: The Glee starlet proved just why she's so famous as she walked on stage to present in a shoulder baring dress with a tufted skirt, accessorised by a Fendi bag, Lorraine Schwartz jewelry and Brian Atwood shoe. We love the sweet-as-sugar girlie look!

Beyonce, Elie Saab , 2006: Bronzed and goddess, Beyonce's appearance in Elie Saab showed just why he's the go-to designer for those who want to dress to impress on the red carpet

Beyonce, 2008 afterparty: Sunny side up in front and nothing short of spectacular in the back – rarely has Beyonce been more bootylicious than this

Britney Spears, Randolph Duke, 2000: All of 18, Brit only needed a finger waved hairdo to pull a Marilyn Monroe. This was also the last time she ever looked this elegant

Carrie Underwood, Badgley Mischka, 2007: Right on trend with nude and shimmer, country star Carrie grabbed the eyeballs and fashion points alike in this simple but stunning dress

Carrie Underwood , Zuhair Murad, 2009: Golden girl Carrie is all ashimmer once more in, nailing the metallic trend

Christina Aguilera, Emanuel Ungaro, 2007: XTina has a rare fashion moment in romantic, strapless, bowfront number

Fergie, Pucci , 2010: The Black Eyed Pea sure cleans up nice on the red carpet in this teensy bosom-boosting dress. Fergalicious!

Jennifer Hudson, Victoria Beckham, 2010: Who knew VB could make a dress that looks this good? Of course, our favourite American Idol alumnus wears it with the confidence that comes with feeling as great as you look

Kate Beckinsale, Reem Acra,2009: This girl never looks bad! Kate added drama to her look, with black and nude tulle underlay and just the right attitude.

Miley Cyrus, Herve Leger, 2010: Miley got the dress right and the accessories - Judith Leiber bag, Balenciaga shoes, Lorraine Schwartz baubles. We will ignore the slouchy posture and raggedy hair because she looks age-appropriate for once.

Scarlett Johansson ,Monique Lhuillier, 2007: Scarlett was a vision of class in this cocktail dress. But when you look like that, you're pretty much always fabulous

Taylor Swift, Kaufman Franco, 2010: The girl dressed like she knew she was going to be a winner. The shape, the colour, the bling – there's nothing we don't like about this dress
