There was a colourful array of frocks at this year’s Grammy Awards but one shade that made a huge appearance was gold.

Colbie Caillat donned a dark shade of this colour appearing in a long beaded and organza gown complete with a Jennifer Aniston style split, for her red carpet look, while Kathy Griffin sported a not so different style in a lighter shade.

However others, including Keri Hilson took the trend to a completely different level opting for metallic hues over the traditional red carpet sparkles. This was the same in Country Collaboration With Vocals winner Carrie Underwood’s case, who showed off her award wearing a dark gold metallic frock.

Irish rocker Imelda May also showed she’d been struck by the midas touch opting for a gold mid length frock for her performance at the event as did R&B singer Ke$ha.
Although we’re sure you’ll agree some pulled off this look far better than others.
