It’s looking like a big night for metallics on the red carpet.

Taylor Swift looks like a golden goddess in a gold lamé short-sleeve column dress with intricate crystal overlay by Gucci. “It’s like chain mail,” Swift told E! Entertainment TV. “I think it’s bulletproof.”

Chrissy Teigen (John Legend’s wife) chose a gorgeous gold gown with deep cleavage by designer Johanna Johnson.

A pregnant Ciara collaborated with Emilio Pucci’s Peter Dundas on her serpentine-looking metallic copper gown. And Amber Rose is sparkling in a gold Naeem Khan gown with a maze of sequin details.

Putting a twist on the trend, Rita Ora chose a short, woven metallic cocktail Lanvin cocktail dress in absinthe green with lavender undertones.
