The Billboard Music Awards had many memorable performances, but as always, the outfits took centre stage, with less is more – fabric wise – stealing the show. Watch the video above of the sexiest fashion looks straight from the red carpet…

During the emotion-packed show, Madonna paid tribute to Prince, Kesha earned a standing ovation for her stirring rendition of “It Ain’t Me, Babe” honouring Bob Dylan, and a teary Celine Dion dedicated her Icon award to her late husband.

Britney Spears kicked things off, dazzling in a daring red outfit for a medley of her hits. While several awards were handed out during the show, including British singer Adele who took out the night’s highest honour, Top Artist, and accepted via a video segment, it was performances by the likes of Ariana Grande, Dion, and Rihanna that ruled.

The Weekend had 19 nominations, so it wasn’t surprising that he was the night’s biggest winner, taking home eight awards in all.
