Brit Awards 2021: The best looks and how to recreate them on the high street
THE Brits are one of the biggest events in music, and we are so happy they’re back.
They’ve got a reputation for great music, madness, and of course, plenty of looks.
Last night the Brits took place at London’s O2 Arena with a 4,000 strong live audience as part of the government’s research into how live events might work after the pandemic.
The audience was filled with key workers from London to thank them for their hard work and selflessness over the Covid-19 pandemic.
There was no need to socially distance, or wear masks; but they would need a recent negative Covid test.

The return of the Brits 2021, also saw a return to iconic Brits fashion, with sparkling outfits, neon, and nostalgia reigning supreme.
Dua Lipa looked gorgeous in incredible Vivienne Westwood dress, changing into a Union Jack skirt for her performance; reminiscent of Geri Horner’s iconic Union Jack dress from the 90s.

Harry Styles continued to ace the best dresses lists, decked head to toe in a patterned Gucci suit, and leather handbag.
Olly Alexander, and Arlo Parks also looked fabulous in a patterned suit, making it one of our favourite trends of the night.

Of course we can’t forget the amazing Little Mix, who looked goregous in matching white outfits, showcasing Perrie and Leigh-Anne’s bumps.

We loved Dua Lipa’s custom Vivienne Westwood[/caption]
Dua Lipa aced this look, and if you’re wanting to recreate the look at home, Vivienne Westwood is where you’ll need to head.
The iconic neckline and shape is pure Viv, and whilst you won’t find many high street dupes of this, second hand will be your best bet for designer without the price tag.
Try Ebay, Vestaire Collective for second hand, and Selfridges and Matches for you’re own slice of Cowl neck Vivienne.
