Charli XCX steals the spotlight at the 2024 BRIT Awards in stunning multi-coloured evening gown

Charli XCX cut a striking figure in a trailing multi-coloured gown at the Brit Awards in London on Saturday.

The British singer, 31, stunned in the dress which had a structured bodice and a loose skirt that attached to her waist.

The bodice had a V neckline and had a glassy quality. Its left half was peach-coloured and its right, green.

The dress was backless bar two pink straps in the centre of Charli’s back and her jet black hair was brushed back.

Charli is nominated for the British Pop Act award – her third nomination since 2015 for smash hit Boom Clap.
