It was a night full of shocks and surprises as Justin Timberlake grabbed Mila Kunis's boobs and R-Patz dropped the F-word, but who shocked and surprised us in the style stakes. Here's The Dressing Room's low down on fashion at this year's MTV Movie Awards.

Amanda Bynes

Oh dear! Someone clearly got dressed in the dark! Firstly Amanda, nothing you're wearing matches, and secondly those heels have already been worn by Kim and Kourtney Kardashian and quite frankly they looked a lot better.

Blake Lively

Blake Lively opted to cover up in a fitted royal blue dress teamed with purple heels, which is perhaps not surprising considering the nude photo scandal as of late. Nevertheless she looks flawless and could teach Amanda Bynes a thing or two on how to make not matching work.

Brooklyn Decker

Brooklyn's attempt to dazzle in gold doesn't pay off I'm afraid, in fact she ends up looking more frumpy than fabulous.

Cameron Diaz

Diaz shows us all how to be boring and blend in with the crowd in this plain outfit. Yes she looks pretty and whilst there is nothing wrong with the outfit it simply just doesn't make an impression.

Emma Stone

Newly red head Emma Stone looks fabulous in this quirky frock. Overall I give her outfit a big thumbs up, her hair and dress look gorgeous, nevertheless I think she could have chosen better accsessories; the orange shoes and clutch bag distract from the dress.

Emma Watson

Proving why she is regarded as one of the most fashionable women on the planet Emma Watson looks elegant and immaculate in this white and silver ensemble. As ever the fashionista is bang on trend as white is a big hit at the moment.

Hailee Steinfeld

It's hard to believe that Hailee Steinfeld is merely 14-years-old, especially in this black number. I wish she would have played with her youth a bit more and wore something more exciting. Recently revealed as the new face of Mui Mui I think it would have been more appropriate if she had worn something from their collection.

Jessica Szohr

Somebody call the fashion police immediately and ask them what on earth Jessica Szohr is playing at; this black and white jumpsuit is certainly not appropriate for a red carpet event.

Kristen Stewart

I've never been the greatest fan of Kristen Stewart's dress sense but I'm pleased to admit that I think she got this outfit spot on. She took a risk by wearing an edgy rock'n'roll red leather dress and it so paid off.

Leighton Meester

My favourite outfit of the night, the Gossip Girl star manages to look glam yet relaxed and laid-back in this sparkly number - 10 out of 10.

Lil Mama

I think Lil Mama stole one of Nicki Minaj's wigs and a pair of Lady Gaga's shoes and therefore despite the wacky choices she doesn't look original. I do however love the sparkly black dress.

Nicki Minaj

Despite the fact that the Moment 4 Life star clearly forgot to put a top on I love the overall effect of this outfit and the look she was going for, plus the shoes are to die for!

Nikki Reed

Thank you Nikki Reed for once again proving The Dressing Room right - sheer maxi dresses are a hit this season! Reed shows Cameron Diaz how to wear black without being completely boring.

Reese Witherspoon

Reese Witherspoon looks pretty in a leopard print style dress and nude heels. Whilst I'm not head over heels for her outfit there's nothing I dislike about it either.

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley

Showing why she was recently voted sexiest woman the British Victoria Secret's model looks flawless. Her shoes and clutch bag are the perfect accessories.

Selena Gomez

Bieber's bird looks classy and elegant in an embroidered crop top and mini skirt. However the outfit does remind me of something worn at a wedding.

Skylar Grey

Fancy dresses and high heels may not be your thing Skylar Grey and there's nothing wrong with that but you could have at least cleaned your boots.

Bargain

These mesh peep toe heels would look perfect teamed with a flowery summer dress. The rhinestones give them a girly glam element and it's hard to believe they're only £5!!!!!

Vogue goes plus-sized

Nowadays you could bet you're house, car, and kids, that high fashion magazines will be filled with pictures of stick-thin size 0 models. However, Vogue has broken this depressing cycle of having to pick up a magazine and stare at unachievable figures.

The Italian version of the magazine has employed plus-size models for their July cover. The editor of Italian Vogue, Franca Sozzani, has done this in an attempt to campaign against pro-anorexia websites.

She is also currently running a petition in the hope of shutting down websites that encourage eating disorders. She said: "Fashion has always been blamed as one of the culprits of anorexia, and our commitment is to prove that fashion is ready to get on the frontline and struggle against the disorder." She has also promised that this will not be the last Vogue cover featuring a plus-size model.

Good on her! We think these women have gorgeous figures and are a welcomed breathe of fresh air! What do you think?

Patriotic

Festival season is well and truly kicking off; we have already seen Lady Gaga represent at Radio One, a whole host of celebrities lapping up the luxury in Coachella and I'm sure many of you will be attending a festival somewhere this summer.

So whether your partying at V, rocking to Beyonce at Glastonbury or heading up North to Leeds, one thing is certain - you need to look hot!

The Dressing Room is going to provide you with key festival looks over the coming weeks, and the first of these is patriotic style.

Kate Bosworth

Kesha

Kesha and Kate Bosworth were both spotted at Coachella wearing vests sporting the American flag. 2011 festival season is the time to let your patriotic side out as Americana proved a massive hit at the Californian festival. So wear those Union Jack's proudly ladies... (or whatever flag it is you're wearing!)
