The females may have been missing off of the shortlist for the BBC's Sports Personality of the Year Awards, but they certainly made an impact on the red carpet earlier tonight.
The ladies of the sporting world couldn't wait to flash their legs and show off their glitzy style at the bash.
Track and field athlete Jessica Ennis looked stunning as she ditched her sportswear for a feminine frock for the night.
No trainers! Athlete Jessica Ennis made sure she looked immaculate at the sporting awards and led the pack in the style stakes
The 25-year-old looked immaculate as she stepped out in an intricate LBD with cut away detailing.
She matched the ensemble with a ruby red clutch bag and heels, while he hair was styled to perfection as she wore it down.
And she wasn't the only one keen to get her pins out, as 38-year-old marathon champion Paula Radcliffe also dressed to impress for the occasion.
She may have still been on a high from her birthday last week and the runner looked radiant in her shimmering longsleeved mini dress.
Standing out from the crowd: Jockey AP McCoy's wife Chanelle was one of the only few to opt for colour. Good work!
And she swapped her trainers for skyhigh black heels as she turned up with her blonde hair in a side parting.
While the ladies of the sporting world revelled in the glamour, the partners of the male sporting heroes also used the opportunity to dress up to the max.
Footballer Michael Owen's wife Louise also opted for a black frock and was right on trend with the lace detailing.

Chanelle McCoy gave the event a splash of colour and wow factor in her dark turquoise floorlength gown.
Dressing up: Swimmer Keri-Anne Payne went for glamorous black while Jane Torvill opted for all out colour with a splash of pink

Another beauty who made an impact at the event was Welsh hurdler Dai Greene.
He may have missed out on the title to cyclist Mark Cavendish, but he was helped through the event by his girlfriend Sian Davies.
The brunette stunner wore a red floorlength dress with halterneck detailing.
All eyes were on Mark Cavendish as he picked up the winner's trophy, but he only had eyes for his pregnant girlfriend, model Peta Todd.

Posting on Twitter on his way to the show, Mark wrote: 'Off to #SPOTY with a glowing @petatodd. It's the first time I've been really nervous. Whatever the result, thanks everyone for the support."
And the feeling was obviously mutual as Peta wracked up some last minute support to ensure her man walked away with the trophy.
She wrote: 'En route to #spoty now... Urging you kids to pick up the phone and vote #cav4spoty ... He may be favourite but let's show the love.'
While the pair beamed in front of the cameras, the night proved to be a star-studded affair as others flocked to the glitzy bash.

Other stars adding some glitz to the male-heavy event included ice skater Jane Torvill, who tried a bit too hard in a pink satin number with a black shawl.
Former boxer Joe Calzaghe, who won the Sports Personality title in 2007, also showed his relationship with Strictly Come dancing professional Kirstina Rihanoff is still going strong.
The pair looked closer than ever at the bash, which saw Russian Kristina turn up in a faux fur coat and long gold earrings over a black body hugging number.

Just weeks after his bandmate Dougie Poynter was crowned King of the Jungle on I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here, Harry Judd has won Strictly Come Dancing 2011.
His ecstatic McFly bandmates stormed the dancefloor moments after hosts Bruce Forsyth and Tess Daly announced their names.
Sir Bruce was left chasing the boy band off the floor as they interrupted the Glitterball ceremony in their rush to congratulate the 25-year-old drummer.
Joy: Harry Judd has been crowned the winner of Strictly Come Dancing 2011
The ecstatic boys jumped on Judd, leaving his partner Aliona to cheer by herself before they enveloped her in their group celebration.
'All I can say is, from the bottom of heart thank you to everyone for voting for Aliona and me,' the thrilled 25-year-old said. 'I've been on the best show on TV and I'm just honoured.'
The musician had earlier admitted that he wasn't convinced that joining the show was the best decision early on in the competition. 'I was dreading it to be honest. I thought, what am I doing?'
Changed your mind then? Harry admitted that he had 'dreaded' being in the competition early on, and asked himself what he was doing
Outta the way! Harry's partner Aliona was left celebrating on her own as his bandmates rushed to congratulate him
'I was so nervous when I first started and I didn't think I'd be able to do it. But Aliona has gotten me through it.'
Shortly after Harry was crowned as the winner, 'King of the jungle' Dougie joked on Twitter: 'I have a queen!!!!!! Thanks so much guys! This is ace!!!'
The McFly boys had previously promised to strip and post a nude picture to Twitter should Harry win, and Dougie promised fans tonight: 'Naked picture as promised coming later, need to find a yard glass first.'
Mobbed: The boy band threw themselves at the drummer, with 'King of the jungle' Dougie saying later 'I have a queen!'

Going into the final results Harry and Aliona were leading by three points, with a combined score of 156.
Runner-up Chelsee Healey said: 'I'm really proud of meself.' In a Sally Field moment, the Waterloo Road actress said: 'To know people actually like me is really nice.'

Harry and Aliona had heated things up during the second half of the live final with a romantic American Smooth and a sexy Argentine tango, for which they received their second perfect score of the evening.
'Like the nation, I've fallen in love with you too darling,' said an uncharacteristic Craig, shortly before Harry was announced as the winner.
Both the finalists performed a new dance for their third performance of the evening following Jason Donovan's departure.

Chelsee and Pasha also received a 39 for their equally romantic Rumba to Fools Rush In.

An hour earlier, the actor and singer looked like he could have turned his fortunes around after muscling bookies favourite Harry Judd out of first place in the judges' scores.
But it wasn't to be.
Jason also thanks his wife and children, who he said had been with him through 'all the ups and downs in my life.'

Earlier in the show, Jason said: 'It has been such a ride. My life has had ups and downs and that's what has happened to me in Strictly. Because of the downs, you appreciate the highs so much more. I've thrown myself into it.'
After receiving the lowest judges' score - 37 - of the evening for his first performance, a tango to I Will Survive, he upped his game to get a perfect score for the show dance.
The judges heaped praise on Jason and Kristina after their second performance, with Bruno telling them: 'It was more than a show dance it was showbusiness extravaganza! You could open on Broadway tomorrow and break box office records!'
Fond farewell: The Australian said he had thrown himself into the Strictly experience, which he named as one of the best of his life
Camp: Earlier Jason and Kristina performed their popular tango to I Will Survive from week three
'Ferocious and full-on darling,' said Craig. 'I would get that woman a restraining order, amazing!'
Jason's departure leaves Harry and Chelsee in the competition. Harry opened the show with a quickstep.
Before his dance, Harry said: 'I've been smiling all week. My Strictly experience has been one of the most important experiences of my life- I never thought I'd say that.
'Strictly has been refreshing and I've absolutely loved it. I'm very grateful.'
'It's like being a dad and watching your son play football for the first time,' said his bandmate Dougie. 'You think, "Oh, that's my boy!"'
Turnaround: Things were looking up for Jason after his show dance, which saw him and Kristina receive a perfect 40
Aliona said: 'I wasn't sure about Harry, he came into the studio pigeon-toed, and I thought "Aw, bless."'
After the energetic quickstep, Len said: 'You've come out all guns blazing. That was brilliant, well done.'
'You came, you danced and you conquered Blackpool,' said Bruno. 'It was delivered with flash and dance. Loved it.'
Craig added: 'I only had one problem last time, that ghastly lazy left foot of yours, but you seemed to have improved that, so I absolutely love it.'
Leading the way: Harry Judd was top of the leaderboard after the round of first dances
'I will survive? YOU have survived, 14 weeks of blood seat and tears,' said Len afterwards. 'You have 20 years on the other two and you have given everything with so much energy. 10
Bruno enthused: 'You excelled! Talk about a tango with split personalities. At one point you were like Wolverine and then you were like a disco diva from 1978.'
'Your bottom was sticking out a lot, but I have to say it's a fantastic number,' said Craig. 'It's through determination and good old fashioned hard work that you've got there.
The judges awarded 38 to the couple - perfect scores from Alesha and Len and nines each from Craig and Bruno, putting them behind Harry and Aliona after the first dance.
Perfect! The couple were awarded the first perfect score of the evening
Chelsee and Pasha Kovalev were the last of the three finalist couples to perform their first dance.
'Dancing is me now,' The Waterloo Road star said. 'When I first started people didn't know who I was. Strictly has brought out an elegant side of me. I'll leave the competition a different person, I've grown up a lot. Not in size! I've learned to be more confident. I'll treasure this forever.'
They performed their popular Shrek jive from week ten.
Len told them: 'I've judged in this room many times, and watching you, a girl who came here with no dancing experience, do that jive so well gives me a much pleasure as judging world champions. 10
'For me that was my favourite jive of the whole series,' said Alesha. 10
'That was a premium grade jive of eye-popping vibrancy,' shouted Bruno. 'You were great!'
She's a believer! Chelsee Healey dazzled with her Shrek jive from week ten, receiving a 39
Craig enthused: 'A complete and absolute bundle of joy to watch. It was about a thousand steps a minute. I loved it.' 9
'It's already the best night of my life,' said Chelsee afterwards.
They received an almost-perfect 39, with just Craig deducting one point from their score, placing Harry in first place after the first dances, followed by Chelsee, and Jason in third place.
For the show dance section, Harry and Aliona performed a sexy, Fifties-inspired jive to Great Balls of Fire.
'Rock God!' Harry performed a Fifties-style jive for their show dance, but received a lower score of 37 second time round
The boy band member's famous chest was out on full display for the second dance, in an unbuttoned red shirt.
He jumped behind the drum set to show off his day-job skills at the end of the number.
'You have talent written all over you,' said Len. 'You gave it all your all. Everyone was so impressed by that.'
Alesha: I loved the concept, it really suited you. The lifts were almost dangerous but they were fabulous.
Beyoncé eat your heart out: Chelsee dazzled with a shimmering frock for her second performance, but received a disappointing 36
'Its great guns harry!' said an over-excited Bruno. 'Rock God!'
They didn't do quite as well as their first dance, receiving 37, with only Alesha awarding a perfect ten.
Chelsee gave Beyoncé a run for her money in a tiny gold number for her show dance, to One Night Only.
Despite winning warm praise, the performance received the lowest score of the evening, just 36.
