The mega-talented singer-songwriter, celebrated for her viral hit “Escapism,” brought the glitz to the red carpet in a delicate sequin orange gown with enlarged safety pins clasping the sides together.
Jess Glynne
The 34-year-old music sensation tapped into her romantic side, dressing in a hot pink one-shoulder gown with a bunched high-cut neckline. Glynne added dimension to the otherwise solid look with a satin red shawl draped over her forearms.

The British television presenter and beloved DJ arrived outside the O2 Arena for date night. Harris donned a burnt orange suit with unique stitching lining the edges, while Hope wore a racy, yet tasteful black gown with a mesh bustier covering her midsection. A dark bejeweled fabric sandwiched the see-through middle portion of the dress.

Becky Hill
The 30-year-old “Lose Control” artist cut a risqué figure, sporting open-cut floor-length gown, which exposed her midriff. Hill added emerald green jewels around her neck and on her fingers to embellish the slick black dress.

Ellie Goulding
The singer, known for her powerhouse ballads, flashed a soft smile in a satin bronze one-shoulder dress, which featured ruching on the left hip and a major cutout that exposed her belly button. Goulding’s metallic high heels peeked out from beneath the garment’s thigh-high slit.

Lastly, keyboardist Aurora Nishevci stunned in an oxblood bustier.
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.
