Sure, she's the go-to girl for hit duets with the likes of Ja Rule and Fat Joe, but Ashanti, 21, has a fashion sense all her own. ''She's very versatile,'' says her stylist, Rosie Michel, who's also dressed Ja Rule. ''She likes things sexy-cute, but still classy.''

1 The one-shoulder dress was for Ashanti's red-carpet stroll.
2 What does Ashanti like to highlight? ''Her stomach,'' says Michel, who adds that the singer doesn't have time to work out. ''But she has gone on the Hollywood [fruit juice] Diet.''
