Lamiez, Loot Love, Rebecca: best and worst dressed at the Metro FM Music Awards
This is how you interpret the "Crowning Greatness" theme. Known for an edgy style and love for a sculptural silhouette, Lamiez stunned in an all-black custom gown by Q'Mane. The outfit carries the air of an updated Maleficent dress made famous by the 2014 film, trading sharp lines for softer floral embellishments that make up the sleeves and bust of the look. Rather than a pixie or her iconic mohawk, Lamiez rocked a 1990s bowl or mushroom haircut, as it is affectionately known. To avoid making the look a Halloween costume, she finished it with silver accessories, sultry smokey eyes and glossy skin-tone matching lips.
