Taylor Swift glitters in gold as Miranda Lambert spills out of low-cut Grecian gown at the Academy of Country Music Awards

Taylor Swift stole the show at the Academy of Country Music Awards tonight as she waltzed on to the red carpet in a stunning gold gown.

The 21-year-old country star looked elegant in her ensemble - but the same could not be said for fellow singer Miranda Lambert.

She turned heads at the Las Vegas event in a very low-cut white Grecian dress, which struggled to contain her dangerous curves.

The 27-year-old star, who was the big winner of the night with four gongs, was seen fidgeting in her outfit, and had to constantly keep pulling it up to avoid any embarrassing episodes.

Other stars at the awards ceremony, which was held at the MGM Grand Garden Arena, included Carrie Underwood, who looked regal in purple, and Julianne Hough, who slipped into a daring, backless orange design.

'What we lack in height and stature, we make up in feistiness,' she said.
