STARS FLOCK TO PRIMA HIGH STREET FASHION AWARDS

A tale of two dresses: Zoe Salmon (L) looked glamorous in a daring red strapless gown, but Claire Richards (R) chose an unfortunate polka dot number A total must for fashion loving celebs last night was the Prima magazine high street awards party. Lots of stars turned out whether it be singers,reality tv stars or fashion insiders, They all watched the amazing catwalk show and waited to see who had won the awards.

Claire Richards from 90s pop group Steps walked the fashion carpet in a navy polka dot number accesorized with patent red heels.

Claire made sure she shined with a gleaming smile and shiny red lipstick to match her shoes and a structured red carpet pose.

The dress hides her upper arms and hides the wobbly bits, its a tricky print to pull off so make sure you feel comfortable wearing.

Reality star Imogen Thomas also showed of her baby bump and curves in an dressy aqua number with a frilly black collar accesorized with studded black heels and big sparkly earrings. She did the traditional pregnant pose of her hand on the bump whilst she posed for paparazzi.

Other celebrities pictured who arent in the plus size category are Ex Towie star Amy Childs and pop/opera star Mylenne Klass. Your probably thinking why are they on a blog for plus sizes then. ?

Well Amy Childs has just released her 3rd clothing collection called the AmyChildsCollection. It features a range of tops,bottoms and dresses that cater for curvy figures and goes up to size 16 in most varieties. Whilst on the red carpet last night Amy made sure she was doing some self publicity for her new range by wearing something from the new collection. Pouting,twirling and posing she made sure her new collection was getting plenty of notice and the flash bulbs going.

The AmyChildsCollection can be purchased from her new Essex high street boutique 11 Ongar Road Essex or online at http://www.amychildsofficial.co.uk/

Myleene Klass was also in attendance wearing a dress from her Littlewoods Collection. Mylenne teamed her black lace dress with some nude coloured heels and accesorized with a simple bracelet and her hair in a tight bun.

Mylenne's range consists of tops,bottoms,dresses and coats.

Her new range can be purchased at http://www.littlewoods.com/ and goes up to a size 24 in most styles.

The Only Way Is Monochrome: (L-R) Amy Childs, Frankie Essex and Chloe Sims all wore black and white ensembles to the Comfort Prima High Street Fashion Awards this evening (Thursday)
High Street hotties: Michelle Heaton (L) got into the spirit of the evening by wearing a dress she bought from Topshop seven years ago, while Myleene Klass (R) wore a gown from her own Littlewoods range
