After three decades in the music business, Shakira is ready to face any red carpet, "whenever, wherever" it may be.

The Colombian singer, songwriter and producer, who released her first album back in 1991, is one of the world's most diverse artists, recording tunes in English and Spanish and borrowing from her Middle Eastern heritage with her enchanting dance performances. (Shakira's paternal grandparents were Lebanese and she has previously said that hearing the darbuka drum aged 4 inspired her to become a performer).

And her wardrobe is equally as multi-layered, as the 44-year-old effortlessly switches between high-octane evening gowns, sleek tailoring, bohemian dresses and pared-back separates.

While Shakira has turned to red carpet staples such as Gucci and Versace, she's also been known to sport labels from this region, stepping out in Lebanon's Zuhair Murad and Dubai's Furne One on occasion.

Here, we take a look back through her red carpet history from the past two decades.
