In July 2015, Rita Ora joined her fellow judge Cheryl Fernandez-Versini at The X Factor season 12 auditions at Wembley Arena in London.

Cheryl’s slim physique was the talk of the town, but Rita managed to steal a bit of the spotlight in a shimmering retro-inspired mini dress from Versace’s Fall/Winter 2015 collection.

Her flattering LBD featured a multicolored crystal-embellished bodice and a thigh-skimming hemline highlighting her toned legs.

While she could’ve just let her dress shine on its own, the then-24-year-old singer furthered the glam factor by accessorizing with an oversized pair of star-shaped earrings and a few rings—which didn’t come as a surprise, given her bold sense of style.

Rita finished the look by pulling her long blonde hair into a high ponytail featuring a few cornrow braids. She also sported heavy eye makeup.

Rita finished her 80s-inspired outfit with a simple pair of black pointed-toe pumps — the popular “So Kate” by Christian Louboutin.
