The AMAs red carpet was a sea of shimmering singers and celebrities. Beaded gowns were the night's dominant trend bringing more sparkle to the show than a platinum record. Breaking down music awards fashion can be a difficult to task (though not nearly as perplexing as Christina Aguilera's bangs). Different rules apply to the red carpet. We expect more outlandish styles and certain celebs are so extreme that they don't warrant a fashion critique (T-Pain, we're looking at you).

So here's our list of the AMAs fashion hits and misses.

Taylor Swift is currently on our fashion favorites list. She rocked the red carpet in yet another silvery gown -- this time in a short and sassy number.

Those adorable Jonas Brothers looked super sleek in suits by Ralph Lauren. We love their complimentary, but never matchy-matchy style.

Julianne Hough gets props for making us forget her Barbie doll styling at the CMAs two weeks ago. She showed up in a much more modern and adorable white dress with gold gladiator sandals.

Miley Cyrus spent her sweet 16 at the AMAs rocking the red carpet. Her gold and black minidress by Marchesa was on trend, modern, age-appropriate and our favorite look of the night.

In a suit jacket, ill-fitting jeans, and a nonsensical pair of combat boots, Jamie Foxx made us long for his more conservative Oscar appearances.

Singer Colbie Caillat hit the red carpet in a green number that looked like something you'd skim off the top of a pond. The color and texture of the dress were all wrong and it seemed to be especially ill-fitting.

Oh Rihanna, we love your unconventional, inspired funkiness, but sometimes you get lost in all that '80s-influenced fashion. The gloves, the oversized earrings, the ruffles, the deconstructed skirt ... you had us but you lost us.
