A leather-and-chain-clad
Kylie Minogue strutted her stuff on the
2010 amfAR New York Inspiration Gala's red carpet last night, turning several heads along the way.
The sexy songstress took the theme of the event -- "black tie and black leather" -- to heart, wearing a risqué creation designed by
Jean Paul Gaultier, who was the
honoree.
Minogue's avant-garde dress featured an ultra-high slit, which showed off her sheer black
thigh highs and
garter, but the racy look didn't end there.
A black leather glove formed the frock's single sleeve, climbed up
Kylie's arm, and attached to the one-shoulder cut of the dress' other side with -- wait for it -- mini handcuffs.
The Australian singer wore black peep-toe pumps and a tamed
Snooki pouf.
Was the leather ensemble sexy-chic or more S&M? Take a look and vote for yourself:

Ke$ha was feeling patriotic at day 2 of Radio 1's Big Weekend. Her feathery, broad-shouldered top was at odds with her American flag knickers and combat boots. Is this what the pop star meant when she described her look as "garbage chic?"

There's no doubt that Britney Spears looks fabulous in her dark skinnies and black boots. But why the peek-a-boo bra? The 70's hair? And the lace collar? The stunning star certainly has one kooky sense of style.

Gwen Stefani brought her entire brood to church to attend a family christening. The one thing Gwen didn't bring was one of her usually chic outfits -- this striped ensemble (complete with white tights and strappy shoes) was a big mess. So don't try this one at home, kids -- if it's too bad to look good on Gwen, no one should be caught dead in it.

Nicole Kidman arrived at the 45th Annual Academy Of Country Music Awards in a 'feminine take on the tuxedo' dress by L'Wren Scott that she paired with witch-like lace-up booties. Her flat hair and bright red lips didn't make up for the unflattering award show ensemble.
