The American Music Awards were all about shimmer, shine, and a lot of leg-baring looks this year. Of all the eye-catching ensembles from the evening, there were four in particular that stood out among the red-carpet crowd. Taylor Swift stunned in a sweet and sexy metallic floral mini by Zuhair Murad; Carrie Underwood dazzled in a sheer, purple lace gown by Abed Mahfouz; and Stacy Keibler showed off her legs for days in a jeweled Collette Dinnigan dress. Meanwhile, Scandal star Kerry Washington showed off her style prowess in a beautiful yellow lace creation by Stella McCartney paired with pink pumps. Now, it's your cue to chime in: which AMAs attendee gets your vote for best dressed of the evening?

It's a battle of the leg-baring, eye-catching metallic minidresses at tonights AMAs! Stacy Keibler shined in a bejeweled design by Collette Dinnigan, Heidi Klum opted for a gold lace mini by Alexandre Vauthier, and Taylor Swift chose a floral embellished confection by Zuhair Murad. While Heidi and Taylor opted for sleek updos, Stacy kept her locks long and wavy. Three hot ladies, three hot looks. Which metallic minidress look is your favorite?

Taylor turned up the volume — and shortened the hemline — at the American Music Awards in an embroidered Zuhair Murad gown. She let the gold beadwork and floral embellishments shine with her hair sleekly pulled back, revealing gold earrings that picked up on the metallics of her mini. A pair of shimmering strappy sandals finished her look off while pulling her glamorous gold ensemble together. Do you think Taylor shined tonight?

Nicki Minaj dressed in bold hues tonight, but she did not opt for quite as outrageous a showstopping number as she has in award shows past. Case in point: the rapper stepped out in an eye-catching (that's what a bright shade of citron will do for you) floor-length strapless gown from Monique Lhuillier's Resort '13 collection. You may recognize this dress as the same one that Modern Family's Julie Bowen wore to this year's Emmys, but that's neither here nor there, especially when you consider that Nicki paired her look with platinum-blond waves and one serious statement necklace. Are you feeling Nicki's departure from wild and crazy outfits in favor of something a bit more glamorous?

Hayden Panettiere brought the flirty factor tonight, opting for an iridescent sequined mini. The sweetheart neckline and floaty hemline gave the look a girlie — and not quite so sexy — vibe, as did her bright pink lip. She finished it off with sweet satin add-ons: a sculptural clutch and sky-high platforms that echoed the satin finish on her dress's straps (and accentuated her leggy look). So, what's the verdict on the Nashville star's style?

Ginnifer Goodwin went the mod route — we're thinking Twiggy mod — in a soft-pink beaded Oscar de la Renta dress from the designer's Resort 2013 lineup. Not only did this pastel number give off a distinctly retro feel, but also, it came complete with a slightly higher neckline and capped sleeves. While we're all for a sweet, youthful look, we think she did right by her edgier, hologram-silver box clutch and strappy metallic Jimmy Choo heels. What do you think?

Carrie Underwood held nothing back tonight on the AMAs red carpet, donning a gorgeous sheer purple gown by Abed Mahfouz.

American Music Awards: Stacy Keibler

What can we say?

What can we say? Stacy Keibler knows how to work a minidress. Case in point: the leggy Miss Keibler (aka George Clooney's girlfriend) just lit up the AMAs red carpet in a bejeweled Collette Dinnigan Fall '12 confection. Sure, part of the shine came from the all-over beading and sequins, but the other part? That megawatt smile. To accessorize her bold little dress, Stacy echoed the glitter with a pair of shimmering, golden pumps and offset it all with a sleek black clutch, a single cocktail ring, and loose, sexy waves. It's the perfect look to showcase her mile-long stems, no?

If there is one thing we can expect from Gwen Stefani's red-carpet style, it's the unexpected. From bindi details to crop tops with cargo pants, the No Doubt lead singer is all about channeling her rocker-girl vibe in full force, and tonight's outfit proved to be one cool incarnation. She styled an embellished black-and-white Balmain cardigan over a black bralette top, skintight leather leggings, and a pair of sleek black D'Orsay pumps. As for the finishing touches? Gwen kept it sweet and simple with her makeup and hair, only adding a diamond-encrusted cross necklace for a little extra sparkle. Are you a fan of her AMAs ensemble?
