They made their return to the music scene with a bang earlier this year.

And it seems Mutya Keisha Siobhán, formally known as the Sugababes, have also made their mark on the fashion world.

The girl group made sure they took centre stage as they took their seats front row at the PPQ show during London Fashion Week on Friday at Somerset House.

Siobhán revealed a glimpse of her washboard stomach wearing a Herve Leger catwalk skirt and top.

The beautiful red head, who opted for simple make-up apart from thick eyeliner, completed her look with a pair of Jerome C. Rousseau shoes.

Mutya kept her famous figure relatively underwraps in a Herve Leger catwalk dress, which featured a slight slit.

With her hair worn poker straight down her shoulders, she added a pair of Jerome C. Rousseau shoes.

Keisha opted for a slightly different look and wore a trouser and top from the PPQ archive.

Girl of the moment: Ellie Goulding (L) looked stunning in black while Bip Ling went for a fun look

Wild thing: Jo Wood looked hot to trot in leopard print trousers featuring a bumble bee print

Up and coming: Actress Amber Anderson (L) wore an eighties inspired look while Delilah hit the high note with her frock 

The clashing monochrome print looked effortlessly cool while she added sex appeal with a dash of bright red lipstick. 

The singers weren’t the only famous faces to attend the catwalk show and their fellow pop star Ellie Goulding also made sure she turned heads.

Ellie, who is fast become a force to reckoned with on the fashion scene, wore an interesting floor length black dress from the PPQ archive.

The dress showed off her toned arms perfectly and she wore her long blonde hair tousled to one side. 

Ronnie Wood’s ex-wife Jo opted for a wilder look and slipped on a pair of leopard print trousers as she too took her seat in the front row.

Adding a touch of A-list to the proceedings was Star Trek actor Chris Pine, who looked dashingly handsome as he arrived. 

The actor got caught out slightly in the rain – resulting in his blue bomber jacket being a little rain stained and his hair falling across his face. 

Other guests at the show included Amber Anderson, Olivia Grant, Lilah Parsons and Bip Ling.

Caught out: Chris Pine managed to get a little wet as he made his way in, while Ellie Goulding escaped it

BEST TO WORST: SUGABABES LINE-UPS -Hollywood.com

By: Jon O'Brien

10:00PM EDT

Daniel Deme / WENN

Renowned for changing their line-ups quicker than most groups change their underwear, UK girlband Sugababes have almost made Fleetwood Mac look like the picture of stability since bursting onto the pop scene with the brilliant "Overload" back in 2000. In the week that the original trio finally released their comeback single and the last all but admitting that the game is over, here's a look at each of their five incarnations from worst to best.

Jade, Amelle & Heidi (2009-2013)

After drafting in former Eurovision entrant Jade Ewen to replace the only founding member, Keisha Buchanan, the final Sugababes line-up became the complete antithesis to everything that the first stood for. Jumping aboard the 'fun in the club' Europop bandwagon, their one and only dismal studio effort, the anything but Sweet 7, saw them transform into shameless hit-chasers. While they spent their last three years focusing more on appearing in tacky reality shows (Dancing On Ice,Splash) than getting their act together. The recent news of their split comes as a relief.

Mutya, Keisha & Siobhan (2012-??)

Having left the band through a toilet window in 2001, Siobhan Donaghy and the rest of the original line-up decided to put their differences aside and join forces again last year. Only a handful of tracks from their unexpected reunion have emerged so far. But if they can keep their squabbling to a minimum, the triumphant Dev Hynes-produced hipster pop of "Flatline" and their classy take on Kendrick Lamar's "Swimming Pools (Drank)" suggests that MKS are more than capable of surpassing their former glories.

Heidi, Amelle & Keisha (2006-2009)

An era of two halves, the third Sugababes line-up picked up where the second left off with a string of brilliant pop singles ("Red Dress," "Easy," "About You Now"), a Greatest Hits collection which confirmed their girlband superiority and a second UK number one album with Change. But they hopelessly lost their way towards the end with a lazy cover of "Here Come The Girls," its dull retro-soul parent album, Catfights & Spotlights, and arguably the death knell for the group, "Get Sexy," a jaw-droppingly bad slice of trash pop which for reasons unknown sampled Right Said Fred's "I'm Too Sexy."

Mutya, Keisha & Siobhan (1998-2001)

Arriving at a time when the charts were flooded with girlbands hoping to fill the Spice Girls-shaped hole in the market, Sugababes managed to emerge as one of the most distinctive thanks to an intriguingly aloof image and an effortlessly cool urban pop sound produced by former Massive Attack and Neneh Cherry cohort Cameron McVey. But despite a wave of critical acclaim, 2000 debut One Touch didn’t exactly set the world alight and following Donaghy’s departure, the group were dropped from their London Records label.

Heidi, Mutya & Keisha (2001-2006)

One of the most remarkable career turnarounds in girlband history, Sugababes Version 2.0 went from the verge of extinction to the top of the UK charts in the space of six months. Comeback single "Freak Like Me," an inspired mash-up of Gary Numan’s "Are 'Friends' Electric" and Adina Howard’s '90s R&B classic, signalled their pop world-conquering ambitions immediately. But despite their new-found commercial success, the trio remained one of the most exciting and inventive acts around, forging a successful partnership with Xenomania before Girls Aloud had even formed and toying with everything from crunk to trip-hop to ambient electronica on their subsequent three albums.

She may have been a little put out recently when the original Sugababes returned to the music scene with rave reviews.

But on Wednesday Amelle Berrabah looked like a woman very much in charge as the attended the launch of the Cointreau Privé designed by Simone Rocha at St Martins Lane.

Showing off incredible figure the 29-year-old slipped into a skintight purple dress by Myleene Klass which she teamed with a very bold and eye-catching metal choker.

The colourful dress fell just below her knees and showed off her ample cleavage with a low cut neckline.

She teamed the number with a pair of black heels while she added a dash of red lipstick creating a great contrast with the purple. 

Her hair had been styled in a side parting with a big flick but it was the necklace which featured two chains which stole the show.

Choked up: Amelle opted to wear a statement necklace, which was much like a choker

Berry nice: The singer stood out in her cleavage enhancing frock which was by Myleene Klass 

Drink up: Amelle looked happy as she sipped on one of the drinks at the event

Taking to Twitter at the event, she shared a picture of herself and thanked Myleene for the dress writting: ‘Me and @Mastronardi at the Cointreau Prive launch... Thank u @KlassMyleene 4 the dress!’

The singer was joined at the evening by former TOWIE star Lydia Rose Bright, who opted for a more demure look.

She wore a black prom style dress which fell below her knees and she created at touch of Hollywood glamour with loose waves and bright red lipstick.

Ladylike: Lydia Rose Bright wore matching red heels and lipstick with a black dress

Fitting right in: Lydia looked rather 20s with her hair in waves and a cocktail glass in hand

Sharing her evening’s plans with her followers the fashion-lover wrote: ‘Celebrating #LFW tonight with beautiful fashion @Simone_Rocha_'s & delicious drinks @CointreauUK’

Her fellow reality star Louise Thompson was also on hand for the drinks party and showed off her tan in short black dress.

The Made In Chelsea favourite teamed the skater style skirt with a pink sequined jacket which ensured she caught the light and plenty of attention as she strolled around the party.

All that glitters: Louise Thompson wore a pink shinning jacket over a black dress

Simple: Louise wore her hair off her face in a ponytail showing off her pretty face

Her brunette locks were tied off her face and with a simple slick of black eye-liner  she showed off her natural beauty.

Also in attendance was Thom Evans who looked particularly dapper in a checked two piece suit, with a contrasting check tie.

He wasn’t joined however by Jessica Lowndes, who is usually by his side at such events, often opting to wear complimentary outfits to her man. 

TV presenter Zoe Hardman was also at the party showing off her figure in a stylish leather skirt with a patterned red and black top. 

Register to attend the Cointreau Privé at St Martins Lane until 22 September at www.cointreauprive.co.uk.

SUGAMANIA: Amelle Berrabah says a Sugababes reunion could happen in 2014; Jade Ewen says they have been over for two years

Posted by Joel Golby on 06 September 2013 11:58

Sugababe #5 Amelle Berrabah reckons the current version of the Sugababes could have a follow up to Freedom out towards the end of next year. Take that, MKS!

Amelle was talking to That Grape Juice about her upcoming solo single Love Is All We Need, but basically they ignored that and asked instead about the stuff that really matters i.e. the Sugababes, what the Sugababes are doing, when the Sugababes will be back.

“I deffo wouldn’t say never,” she said, deffo-nitely. “I would like to think that all three of us would get back together at the end of 2014 to do another album.

Sugababes 2.0

“But that’s if all three of us want to do it wholeheartedly. But a lot changes in a year, but I’d like to think we will.”

Which is good, yes, but sort of flies directly in the face of Sugababe #6 Jade Ewen, who, over at the National Lottery Stars gala, was busy telling Digital Spy that actually Sugababes 2.0 (that’s Sugababe #4, Heidi, plus #5 and #6) split up two years ago.

And she said that pretending anything otherwise was unfair to fans.

Sugababes Alpha

“This is a tricky one,” she said, trickily. “I don’t feel comfortable lying, [but] saying we’re in the studio recording and we’re going to bring music out next year – which seems to be the favoured line – I think it’s unfair to fans and we should be honest.

“The band being over is definitely not my choice. I kind of was unlucky in that I came in towards the end of the cycle when things naturally came to the end.

“There was so much drama surrounding the group, I think the music just got lost. I don’t like all the drama and the negativity. We kind of fizzled out about two years ago.” So, in conclusion: the Sugababes are definitely over, but might release something in 2014. CLEAR AS MUD.

Sugababes split up two years ago and they've been lying about it ever since, says Jade Ewen

If you believed the band were coming back in 2014, you're either easily tricked or you're Heidi Range

Jade, the big old liar

GETTY/ REX

Are you sitting down? We've got some bad news - the Sugababes are splitting up! Well, they actually split up two years ago, but they've been lying to us for ages because ... we don't know why, actually. Because Amelle, Heidi and Jade thought we'd all fall apart without the band here to watch over us? We need something to believe in, in these hard times. And the Sugababes clearly thought that THEY were that beacon of hope. And now it's gone. Sorry everyone.
In an interview that sounds like a confession, Jade admitted to Digital Spy that she literally couldn't go on lying about the band coming back next year, and it sounds like once she started talking, she couldn't hold anything back.

Jade on Splash. She's had the worst luck with jobs, hasn't she?

"This is a tricky one because I don't feel comfortable lying, saying we're in the studio recording and we're going to bring music out next year, which seems to be the favoured line," she said. "I think it's unfair to fans and we should be honest. The band being over is definitely not my choice. I kind of was unlucky in that I came in [to Sugababes] towards the end of the cycle when things naturally came to the end. There was so much drama surrounding the group, I think the music just got lost. I don't like all the drama and the negativity. We kind of fizzled out about two years ago."
Which was also when Mutya, Keisha and Siobhan got back together. Interesting. "I do think the lineup changes have obviously got to be a factor, you can't get away from it," Jade continued. "I'd be lying if I didn't think the same when I was approached. I was like, 'Is this going to work? Are people going to accept it?' But I know it's a brand and the music industry isn't necessarily about making music. One day I'm hoping that I'll be able to put out a book and explain that whole chapter."

And in the bleakest look at the music industry EVER, Jade added: "I had to make a decision - a very difficult decision, because I was about making music and the creativity - when I realised that everybody was only interested in the business and that if I ever wanted to put out music I needed to take an opportunity in the short term. I was just trying to survive. I went from Eurovision to being told I had a solo deal to being told, 'You might be dropped'. I'd already had three deals before that and been dropped and it's heartbreaking. I basically thought, 'Alright, I'm going to go for it, see where it takes me'. I did feel to a certain extent that I got lost, but at the same time it was an amazing opportunity. It was almost like a dress rehearsal of being a popstar. But now it's time to move forward... Come on, I've done Eurovision, I've done Sugababes. If it's still hard, should I just give up?"
Don't give up, Jade! There's always Celebrity Masterchef, which Heidi Range recently had a crack at.
And here's MKS's single Flatline, which is out today. Sorry Jade.
