At the AMAs, Selena Gomez Includes a Jaw-Dropping New Look

Selena Gomez didn't just debut a new platinum crop at tonight's AMAs--she also unveiled a sexy new side to her red carpet style. In the past she's taken to Giorgio Armani gowns, a sparkly Givenchy halter mini-dress, and a sweeping red Prada number, too, though this leather turn was a statement-making departure from her wardrobe, much like her new blonde 'do. And considering Gomez is set to perform her new single "Wolves," she's sure to have more sartorial tricks up her sleeve.

Arriving on the red carpet solo (read: without Justin Bieber, like many fans may have hoped), Gomez zipped into a leather mini dress by Instructor 1941 that looked like an extended leather jacket thanks to the all-over zipper detailing and classic motorcycle scruff of the neck. The figure-hugging dress arrived dotted with pastel star patchwork at the shoulder that brought a streetwise flair to the scene in Los Angeles. She amped up the micro-mini proportions even further with a pair of embellished black pumps that tied in with her party clutch.
