She first stepped into the spotlight as a shy 16-year-old with a fondness for florals and vintage victory rolls on the X Factor. 
Ella Henderson seemed keen to prove that she had grown up at the Brit Awards as she walked the red carpet in a stylish black cut out dress, styling her hair in tumbling gold locks which fell just below her chest. 
Ella added a touch of sophistication to her grown-up look with dark nails, gold dangly earrings and black high heels.
