Kylie Minogue has always had an eye for style, but she took her look to new heights on Sunday, for a spectacular career first. 

Making a surprise appearance at Capital’s Summertime Ball with Barclaycard, the glamorous singer performed her latest hit, Padam Padam, on Sunday – the first time she'd ever performed at Wembley. 

The star donned an incredible flowing red dress with a thigh-high split, which she wore with matching red boots and gloves
