During a year which saw Alexandra Shulman quit Vogue after 25 years, Christopher Bailey announce his departure from Burberry and Gucci go fur free, it was a minor miracle that the world's most stylish stars didn't also tip the balance and start stitching their own clothes.

Thankfully leaving that to the professionals, this year has played host to some of our favourite celebrity looks in recent years.

And while last year saw an influx of scarlet hit the wardrobes of the rich and famous, 2017 saw a more muted colour palette take precedence while fabric and embellishment took centre stage.

Sheer inserts and tulle were particularly prevalent on this year's red carpets, with Bella Hadid leading the charge in Ralph & Russo at the Cannes Film Festival's amfAR Gala.

Following suit were Kaia Gerber, Sara Sampaio, Millie Bobby Brown and Kim Kardashian.

On the embellishment front, Lily-Rose Depp's fuchsia Met Gala gown by Chanel showcased some of the best. Adorned with oversized silver camellias and a creeping vine, Depp's detailing was unapologetically feminine and, we thought, the best dress of the night.

Emily Ratajkowski's lemon yellow silk Golden Globes dress by Reem Acra was similarly decorated, this time with a silver bejewelled neckline that fell around her neck and down the centre of her chest.

Blake Lively also opted for sparkling adornment on the Golden Globes red carpet, with the pockets and neckline of her black Atelier Versace gown a sparkling gold tone.

Other stars who stood out this year for their sartorial successes included Emma Watson, the Duchess of Cambridge, Millie Bobby Brown and Cara Delevingne.
