As we savor the last few hours of 2014, let’s reminisce about the best celebrity red carpet moments of the past year. 

Beyoncé

This list wouldn’t be complete without mentioning Bey’s gorgeous Michael Costello gown at the Grammy Awards in January. The “Drunk In Love” singer was #Flawless in the body-hugging, see-through design, which flaunted her enviable curves.

Lupita Nyong'o

The "12 Years a Slave" actress was a real-life Cinderella in this magical, baby blue Prada gown at the Academy Awards in March. Nyong’o turned heads the entire awards season, following each amazing dress with another equally brilliant one. But, this dreamy dress was the perfect choice for her fairytale, Oscar-winning night.

Emma Stone

The redhead beauty gave new meaning to the term “pretty in pink” at the Met Gala in May by wearing a custom two-piece Thakoon frock. The wrap skirt and crop top combination was effortlessly dazzling and managed to shine bright amongst a sea of over-the-top ball gowns.

Blake Lively

The beautiful blonde can literally do no wrong when it comes to getting dressed. She proved her red carpet reign once more at the Cannes Film Festival in May for “The Captive” premiere with her husband, Ryan Reynolds. The actress was a true Hollywood siren as she stunned in a Gucci Première dress and Lorraine Schwartz jewelry. Of course, having a good-looking man on her arm didn’t hurt either.

Rihanna

While this might not have been Rihanna’s best red carpet moment of the year, it was certainly the most memorable. The “Diamonds” songstress loves to make headlines with her unpredictable behavior, but no one could have guessed she would arrive at the CFDA Fashion Awards in May with her nipples exposed. She accessorized the completely sheer Adam Selman fishnet gown with gloves and a headscarf embellished with Swarovski crystals.

Hayden Panettiere

The “Nashville” star sparkled on the red carpet in this exquisite Lorena Sarbu gown at the Emmys in August. The stunning gown featured a plunging neckline and flaunted her best accessory: her adorable baby bump.

Jennifer Lopez

It’s official: J. Lo simply is not aging. The triple-threat performer and mother of twins put women half her age to shame when she arrived at the MTV VMAs in August draped in a super-sexy Charbel Zoe dress with multiple cut-outs and a thigh-high slit. Lopez’s incredible figure was on full display, making us all wish that, um, we had her abs, legs, and bone structure.
