Taylor Swift was granted one of the top honors at the 2012 Billboard Music Awards by winning the Woman of the Year Award. This particular achievement is given to “a trailblazing female artist” and “acknowledges her overall success in the music business and her leadership in embracing the changing industry.”

Notably, Swift looked stunning in a gorgeous red Elie Saab gown!
