Nina Dobrev - Critics Choice Awards 2013 - picture 9 of 9

Vampire Diaries beauty Nina was one of the few stars to opt for a shorter length - but that didn't stop her going for full-on drama. Her incredible Monique Lhuillier dress had huge sparkling crystals all over, plus a cut-out neckline (is this the red carpet trend of 2013?). With a dress this blingtastic, you have to keep the accessories simple, which Nina did with her Brian Atwood shoes.
