She's one of the hottest models around, with designers knocking themselves over in a bid to work with her.
But Karlie Kloss had some competition for attention at the 23rd Annual Glamour Women Of The Year Awards on Monday in New York City - from none other than young actress Lily Collins.
Lily looked incredible in her flowing nude-coloured gown that featured a plunging chiffon cutout in front and unusual gold embellishment on the bust.
