The Grammys have always been as much about fashion as they are about music. Unlike traditional
red carpets, this is where artists take real sartorial risks – using clothing as an extension of identity,
performance and cultural positioning. Last night’s ceremony delivered a compelling mix of couture
drama, precise tailoring and confident statements, with artists dressing not just to be seen, but to be
understood. From sculptural menswear to modern glamour, these were the ten looks that defined the
night – and set the tone for how music’s most influential figures are dressing right now.
Lady Gaga — Regal in Black Feathers
Lady Gaga led the fashion pack in a dramatic black feathered gown by Matières Fécales. The
mermaid silhouette, high neck and long train gave her a goth-regal air on the red carpet, perfectly
paired with icy platinum-blonde hair styled in a romantic up do and bleached brows. This was a
theatrical fashion moment that felt timeless and stage-ready.
Bad Bunny — Schiaparelli Statement
Bad Bunny made history last night, and there was no more fitting way to do so than in a custom
Schiaparelli tuxedo. His velvet suit featured a corseted waist and a laced-up back, a direct nod to the
house’s surreal symbolism and couture technique. Finished with Cartier jewellery, the look fused
classic tailoring with theatrical precision. In it, Bad Bunny became the first artist to win Best Album
while singing entirely in Spanish – a moment where fashion and cultural significance aligned
seamlessly.
Olivia Dean — Chanel Elegance
Olivia Dean staked a claim for classic glamour in a black-and-white Chanel gown replete with
intricate beading and feather details. The timeless colours and silhouette elevated her presence on
the red carpet with old-Hollywood poise and fashion house savoir-faire.
Sabrina Carpenter — Ethereal Valentino
Sabrina Carpenter appeared in an ethereal Valentino gown adorned with pearls and delicate
detailing, giving her a luminous, red-carpet-ready elegance that balanced youthful glamour with
couture artistry.
Billie Eilish — Deconstructed Tailoring
Billie Eilish fused avant-garde with tailored refinement in a deconstructed ensemble by Hodakova.
Embracing fashion risk with her signature flair, her look played with structure and silhouette in a
way that felt uniquely Eilish – expressive, unexpected and editorial.
Miley Cyrus — Rock-inspired Edge Custom Celine
Miley Cyrus stood out in custom Celine black leather biker jacket punctuated by one of the largest brooches of the night — a bold, rock-slash-glam statement that combined tailoring, metal hardware and personal expression in a way befitting her fearless persona.
Kendrick Lamar — Tailored in Chanel
Kendrick Lamar arrived at the 2026 Grammy Awards in a custom Chanel look that stood out
through precision rather than spectacle. Opting for a sharply tailored black ensemble, the silhouette
was clean and controlled, with a perfectly proportioned jacket and streamlined trousers that
prioritised fit over drama. The choice of fabric, matte and richly textured, read subtle on camera yet
unmistakably luxurious up close, allowing the craftsmanship to do the talking. Minimal accessories
kept the focus on construction and posture, reinforcing a sense of intentional restraint. In a room
dominated by maximalist statements, Kendrick’s look felt deliberate and intelligent – a reminder
that true luxury often operates in quiet confidence rather than excess.
Pharrell Williams — Dapper Yet Distinct
Pharrell brought his signature mix of classic tailoring and playful modernity to the red carpet,
combining a tailored silhouette with expressive hair and accessories. His presence reminded the
night that menswear doesn’t have to be conventional to feel polished.
Teyana Taylor
Teyana Taylor made a commanding style statement on the Grammys carpet in a gravity-defying
gown by Tom Ford. Her choice featured shimmering metallic gold chainmail-inspired fabric that
hugged her silhouette and accented her athletic frame, paired with high-impact jewellery from
Tiffany & Co., including a striking gold chain-link necklace and metallic gold nails that elevated the
whole look. The result was fashion-forward and red-carpet fearless, blending classic glamour with
modern bravado.
Tyla
Tyla turned heads in a vintage Dsquared2 Fall/Winter 2013 gown that felt both nostalgic and utterly
now. The look featured a flowing feather-accented skirt, a deep neckline and—with more than 100
lab-grown Pandora diamonds sparkling throughout—an opulent visual impact that stole attention on arrival.
