They're back, pitches!

Everyone's favorite fictional a capella group made their red carpet comeback at the Pitch Perfect 2 premiere in Los Angeles Friday. We couldn't wait to see next-level dance numbers, mashups and hilarious jokes, but first, we were treated to some sartorial inspiration. The cast, crew and celebs came out dressed to the nines in trends worthy of the runway and still expressive of the fun film.

Cut it Out
The cutout trend has been alive and well for a few seasons now, but leave it up the film's leading ladies to show its range. Anna Camp went for perfectly placed slivers, which only emphasized her overall sultry look. On the other side of the spectrum, Brittany Snow and Chrissie Fit proved that the right geometric cutouts can instantly upgrade an otherwise average dress. When in doubt, side cutouts help provide the illusion of a cinched-in waist.

Waves for Days
Whether retro or beachy, wavy locks are a Hollywood hair staple on the red carpet. Again, leave it to the Pitch Perfect 2 beauties to put their spin on the glamourous look. While Camp's hair is loose and blown out to contrast the severity of her dress, Bella newcomer Hailee Steinfeld's soft tendrils add to her poised ensemble. Then there's Danish actress Birgitte Hjort Sørensen's perfectly coiffed old Hollywood waves, which are sending out some serious siren calls.

Suitable Attire
You'll have to watch the movie to see an unexpected side of the Green Bay Packers you probably won't catch during Monday night football games. We did, however, steal a glance at how aca-awesome the players are on the red carpet. The fellas strayed from the usual black or gray suits of red carpet yore and opted to coordinate with spring-perfect pastels, neutrals and plaids. Men, take note: this is how you really score.
