The stars showed up and showed out for the 2018 American Music Awards. Hosted by the gorgeous, funny lady Tracee Ellis Ross, I’m positive that this year’s show will be filled with hilarious moments, well-deserved wins and amazing fashion choices. Last year, Ross graced the stage with 12 show-stopping outfit changes. Expect all of that and then some. The fashion queen will take the stage by storm with her impeccable style and hilarious jokes.
The AMA’s red carpet is known for legendary fashion moments. Who could forget Rihanna’s 2013 black bustier, sheer mermaid skirt and doubie? What about Ciara’s sheer, jeweled Reem Acra dress from 2015? This show is no stranger to bold, loud fashion choices. Check out some stand-out looks from this year’s American Music Awards.

Chloe x Halle dressed as a collective in lime green and evergreen frocks. When I initially saw this, I thought I’d hate it. Fortunately for these sisters, they can pull just about anything off – even these shapeless dresses.
