The ultimate Grecian goddess: Ellie Goulding went from sleek to sexy as she rocked two Grecian-inspired ensembles at the 2014 MTV Movie Awards at the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles on Sunday night
Showcasing her svelte figure in all its glory, the Goodness Gracious hitmaker's dazzling dress featured a dramatic full skirt and a flattering dropped waist.
The Herefordshire-born pop princess added height to her frame with a pair of black strappy sandals, and accessorised with delicate silver earrings and a chunky cuff around her wrist.
Ellie completed her pretty red carpet look by wearing her platinum blonde locks tousled into a flowing mane of loose curls, while opting for natural make-up to highlight her attractive features.

But the star well and truly injected the sex factor to her outfit as she took to the stage later in the evening for a special performance of her tracks Beating Heart and Find You, which featured on the Divergent soundtrack.
Putting on a typically energetic display, the singer made sure to showcase her gym-honed figure in a daring gold and white Grecian gown, which was slashed entirely to the thigh.
Breaking all the sartorial rules by flashing both cleavage and leg for the occasion, the top part of Ellie's dress was also slashed to the waist, with merely two metallic panels preserving her modesty.

Kicking off her killer heels, the British songstress completed her stage outfit by going barefoot as she performed in front of the A-list crowd.
It's been a busy weekend for the star, who performed at Coachella Festival in Indio, California, before hot-footing it to Los Angeles for the ceremony.
But she would have no doubt been thrilled to see the movie she was associated with, Divergent, enjoy some glory for the evening, with leading lady Shailene Woodley named Favourite Character for her role as Tris.

Ellie's self-penned tracks appear in some of the movie's most-pivotal scenes, and she admitted she is hopeful that she will feature on the soundtrack for the next installment of the Divergent franchise.
She told MTV News: 'I've always loved the idea of doing a film soundtrack, so when I'd seen the film and they put some of my songs to it, my face lit up. I felt very excited.
'It's the first thing I've done where my voice is used amongst the soundtrack rather than just songs. Everyone might get a bit annoyed with my voice.
