Sandra Bullock may have chosen to cover up in a demure floral dress, but the trend was rather more revealing for many of the the ladies on the People's Choice Awards red carpet.
Malin Akerman, Heidi Klum and Jessica Alba dared to bare in very low cut gowns as they stepped out at the Nokia Theatre in downtown Los Angeles on Wednesday night.
Heidi, 40, wore her hair in a high plait and teamed her sparking sleeveless gown with closed toe black shoes and dangling earrings.
