    Rita Ora makes headlines with her outfits on a daily basis, sampling some of the catwalk's most controversial looks but also sampling some of their most exquisite red carpet dresses. See her best style moments, here...

    Rita Ora certainly has been making some bold fashion moves of late, championing the catwalk designers' coolest statement pieces, whether it's a Moschino Spongebob jumper dress or a McQueen-inspired flame headdress.

    When it comes to the red carpet, Rita has also been spotted rocking fish-tail designer gowns from Miu Miu, as well as statement dresses from Vivienne Westwood. No doubt with her ability to pull off anything, Rita has her pick of designers wishing to dress her.

    One thing we know is that Rita certainly can command an audience and when she steps out - even if it's just a quick trip to the shops - all eyes are on her. And rightly so!

    Rita Ora is also a style chamelon when it comes to hair and make-up too, and has said before that she takes inspiration from Marilyn Monroe and with her her bold red lip and platinum locks that's easy to see.

    Rita opts for a trendy Acne Studios jacket, with sparkly black and blue accents. She paired her outfit with an equally eye-catching blue eyeshadow and pink lips, as Twitter immediately began trending for her latest look.

    First up, here's Rita wearing a Balmain x H&M jacket-dress at a Halloween charity ball for Unicef on 29th October, 2015. We love how she pulls this look off with fishnet tights and killer over-the-knee boots. What do you think?
