As one of the biggest names in British music, Charli XCX was one of the most eagerly-awaited names on the Brit Awards red carpet this evening.
Alongside the likes of Jade Thirlwall, Raye and Sabrina Carpenter, Charli stepped onto the red carpet at London's O2, on potentially a huge night for the star.

The Brat singer is leading the nominations at the ceremony, with six nods - the awards she could win include Artist of the Year, Album of the Year and Song of the Year.
The singer, who will not perform at tonight's ceremony, opted for a knee-length black dress, that was sheer in places, created by Dilara Findikoğlu.
Charli has worn Dilara Findikoğlu several times, wearing a custom look by the designer during her appearance on Saturday Night Live in November.
After such a huge year for the singer, many in the UK will be tuning into the Brit Awards tonight expecting to see a performance by Charli, but unfortunately she won't appear - but for an understandable reason.
Chair of the BRIT Committee Damian Christian confirmed the decision, previously saying: 'She's had an amazing year, a super-busy year, and the word that came back to us was, "Thanks for the offer, but I'm going to go and enjoy the night with my friends and family."'
