American Music Awards 2019: Selena Gomez in Versace and Lizzo's tiny handbag among standout style moments

As winter looms and most of us prepare for seasonal hibernation, the biggest stars of the music industry gathered in their glad rags in Los Angeles for the American Music Awards (AMAs). 

Providing an early dose of award season excitement, the AMAs celebrates the standout songs, artists and albums of the year, with 2019’s winners including Taylor Swift, Billie Eilish and Halsey.

But much of the evening’s action unfolded outside the event on the red carpet, which saw swathes of celebrities arriving in custom designer garb.

Many guests took their sartorial cues from the brightest corners of the colour wheel, with Selena Gomez in a vibrant green mini dress by Versace and Dua Lipa posing alongside boyfriend Anwar Hadid in a silk fuchsia gown by Miu Miu.

Elsewhere, sparkles were scattered across the ensembles of Carrie Underwood and Taylor Swift, who chose an asymmetrical seaweed-coloured gown that came complete with a thigh-high slit.
