The American Music Awards are always a chance for celebrities to be a little daring and inventive with their wardrobe choices.

But every so often, one of them skids off the brink into being downright bizarre, as the 23-year-old singer Poppy did when she arrived at the Los Angeles event in a gleaming black muzzle.

The Bubblebath songstress slipped into a plunging sleeveless fuzzy pink top and a matching skirt that featured an lengthy train and a thigh-slit up the front.

Catching the eye: Every so often, some of the celebs at the American Music Awards skid off the brink into looking somewhat bizarre, as the 23-year-old singer Poppy did when she arrived at the Los Angeles event in a gleaming black muzzle

A stretch of see-through pink mesh connected the furry bits of the ensemble, allowing for a generous glimpse at her pearl navel piercing as she strode the red carpet.

Poppy gave herself some extra stature with a pair of Chippendale-themed stilettos, which were black and white and featured little black bowties over each of the ankle straps. 

She stared over the top of her muzzle, which was eerily reminiscent of The Silence Of The Lambs and clashed jarringly against the fluffy pink theme of her dress.

Adding to the oddness of her appearance, the platinum blonde songbird bent to a crouch on the red carpet and let her bejeweled handbag drag against the floor.

Tyra Banks looked rather as if she were dressing as a pirate for a costume party, pulling on a glittering red fringe skirt and cinching on an extravagantly wide black belt.

The 44-year-old TV icon buttoned herself into a flowing white blouse with throwback sleeves, which were extravagantly puffy above the elbow and skintight below.

      Her black high-heeled leather boots were shined to the point they dazzled, and she let her luxurious wavy hairdo tumble free beneath her cap, which resembled a chef’s hat with a visor.

      Post Malone brought a red plastic cup to the red carpet, adding an extra dash of idiosyncrasy to what was an already splashy outfit that brought back the old days of disco era excess.

      The 23-year-old wore a black turtleneck and then threw on a turquoise jacket that featured swirling patterns of snakes wrapped in barbed wire – as well as his initials across his shoulders.

        Austin Richard Post, as he was born, buckled a sparkling belt around his turquoise trousers and upped the Las Vegas kitsch factor with a sparkling, silvery pair of boots.

        Chantel Jeffries emphasized her bust in a strapless black mini-dress that featured the slightly strange touch of large zippers up both sides. 

        Dua Lipa’s outfit looked as if it could be a rejected costume from a wedding episode of The Crown – an off-the-shoulder white number with a glittering necklace that looked like a long, bent nail.

        The New Rules singer’s dress was cinched in just above the knee, at which point it fanned out toward a wide-set hem that dragged back into a bit of a train.

        Dua Lipa was a vision in white at the American Music Awards. The British pop singer showed off what she was made of to her American counterparts wearing a show-stopping gown by Giambittista Valli.

        Hailing from the brand’s Spring 2018 couture collection, this number incorporates a ruffle off-the-shoulder neckline and billowing mermaid silhouette.

        We adore the feminine aesthetic; it reveals just the right amount of flesh while remaining age-appropriate for Dua. She simply completed her ensemble with delicate jewelry.

        Her cropped bob hairdo was tucked behind one ear, and the simple makeup job added to a regal quality that would have been better suited to the ballroom at Windsor Castle – except for the neon green nail polish.

        Tracee Ellis Ross, the compere of the evening’s award show, swung by the red carpet in a black and crepe pink pantsuit that could have been the image of chic if it had fit properly.

        From a jacket cut off too high to a pair of oddly proportioned trousers, the outfit’s heart was the only thing about it that looked in the right place.

        Showbiz family: On top of being Diana Ross’ daughter, she is also the sister of her fellow worst-dressed honoree Evan Ross

        The daughter of Diana Ross wore an thick necklace that faintly resembled an armband from medieval Scandinavia, as well as a pair of glistening drop earrings, and she rolled her sleeves to the elbow.

        On the same red carpet, Tracee’s brother Evan went shirtless beneath a green, blue, orange and red checked suit, offering a full view of the tangle of necklaces that hung over his chest.

        His wife Ashlee Simpson, who is herself the sister of Jessica Simpson, was equally eye-popping in a midnight blue sequined wrap dress with a metallic belt, sweeping her hair into a high bun.

        The look of love: The pair, who are working on music together now, shared an affectionate kiss as they posed up a storm for the cameras on the red carpet at the Microsoft Theater


        Trio: In a group shot to remember, the couple – who married at Diana’s Connecticut home in 2014 – were snapped alongside their fellow worst-dressed list member Tyra

        Qveen Herby’s ensemble was as unusual as her stage name, featuring a knee-length crinoline with no dress on top of it and a Peter Pan collar, as well as a garish spray of multicolored cloth flowers.

        Khalid was dressed for much colder weather than he was in, pulling on a thick white turtleneck and wrapping up in a bubblegum pink jacket that seemed suited to February in New York.

        Spirit of the season: Just a few short weeks before Halloween, Halsey went for an ill-considered Gothic ensemble that was cut at mid-thigh at the front and fell to form a train at the back


        Me and my baby: She posed up a storm beside her boyfriend G-Eazy, whose high-waisted black leather pants played up his spindly legs and clashed against his deep red blazer

        Gathering her hair into a bit of a pompadour, she modeled slim-rimmed spectacles and a minimal makeup look, balancing on white ankle-strap stilettos.

        Just a few short weeks before Halloween, Halsey went for an ill-considered Gothic ensemble that was cut at mid-thigh at the front and fell to form a train at the back.

        Her off-the-shoulder ensemble featured several layers of skirt and was a crepe shade of purple, with splotchy black patterns scattered all over it.
