Reality TV star Kim Kardashian stole the show at a glitzy awards do - designed to celebrate men.

The socialite, 33, who is in the UK with husband Kanye West and their daughter North, arrived at the GQ Men Of The Year 2014 Awards at The Royal Opera House wearing a revealing PVC-look corset and sheer-effect skirt.

She was presented with the Woman prize at the ceremony.

Hitting the red carpet with West, Kim stole the spotlight from the rest of the stars in attendance, including men of the moment Benedict Cumberbatch, Pharrell Williams and 50 Shades Of Grey hunk Jamie Dornan.

In one of the most glittering nights of the season, London’s Royal Opera House was full of stars.

Pop princess Ellie Goulding stunned in a classy white lace number, while F1 star Lewis Hamilton kept things classic in a snappy tuxedo as he arrived with on-off girlfriend Nicole Scherzinger.

Also in attendance were Jessie J, Ringo Starr, Colin Firth, Ronnie Wood and Cara Delevinge.

Ex-Beatle Ringo Starr picked up an award for his humanitarian work, while Pirates Of The Caribbean actor Johnny Depp presented punk pioneer Iggy Pop with the Icon trophy.

Former prime minister Tony Blair, who hit the headlines when he said that reports of his wealth were "greatly exaggerated", was presented with the Philanthropist award at the ceremony.

Supermodel Delevingne presented US uber-producer and Happy singer Williams with the Solo Artist gong.

Rock star Bob Geldof, father of the late Peaches Geldof, handed the Legend award to Van Morrison.

50 Shades Of Grey author EL James presented Northern Irish actor Dornan - who plays Christian Grey in the erotic film adaptation of her work - with a Breakthrough award.

Cumberbatch was given the Actor award by fellow thespian Dan Stevens, while Stay With Me singer Sam Smith presented the Inspiration award to New Order.

Jenna Coleman, who plays companion Clara in Doctor Who, was reunited with the Time Lord when she awarded Capaldi the TV Personality gong.
