Best Dressed AwardIt’s been a long while since I was wowed by Fergie, but the singer did just that at the AMAs. The singer walked the red carpet wearing an Armani Privé Fall 2009 black gown with asymmetrical zipper detailing which leads to a dramatic front slit. The gown sparkles with thousands of black triangular paillettes and is embellished with tiny Swarovski crystals. Fergie’s gown is slightly modified from the runway as the neckline differs plus Fergie’s gown has straps. Black Louboutin’s plus a bracelet, armlet and large ring complete this stunning look.
