The most iconic Grammy red carpet looks through the years

Cher (1974)

There are many iconic fashion moments throughout history that involve Cher. The singer stole the show as she donned a white bikini-style top adorned with a sequin butterfly. The icon topped off the look with a matching pastel butterfly accessory in her hair and a sheer shawl.

Grace Jones (1983)

Grace Jones was the moment in 1983, and with this look she officially brought avant garde fashion to the Grammy scene. The singer shut down the red carpet for the award show’s 25th anniversary in an ultra wide-brim hat and matching black leather ensemble.

Mariah Carey (1991)

Mariah set the bar with her Little Black Dress with diamante details. She accessorised her look with her multiple awards she won that night.

Celine Dion (1993)

The Grammys have become known for their naked dresses, but this Celine Dion look was one of the first ever to hit the carpet. Céline Dion showed up to the 1993 show in a see-through black lace gown that showed off her black thong.

JLo (2000)

When you think of Grammy fashion moments, you think of this dress. It literally created Google’s Image search option. This plunging Versace gown is one of the most impactful red carpet looks of all time. However, at the time, the belly-button baring look was one of the most scandalous gowns to grace a red carpet.

Destiny’s Child (2001)

Destiny’s Child owned the Grammy red carpet with their matching green gowns designed by Tina Knowles.

Lady Gaga (2010)

Lady Gaga has become known for her making a statement with her daring looks. However, the singer opted for an unconventional look at the 2010 Grammys.

The sculptured and space-like outfit was designed by Armani Privé and the look was finished with jewelled platform heels.

Nicki Minaj (2012)

Red carpets aren’t just putting on a dress and walking, they often involve performance. So, who could forget the time when Nicki Minaj brough the Pope as her date? The rapper wore a red satin Versace robe emblazoned with the house’s signature Medusa head.

Adele (2012)

Adele brought Old Hollywood back for one night only when she owned the red carpet in a sparkling black gown by Giorgio Armani.

Rihanna (2013)

Rihanna stunned in a sheer red gown by Azzedine Alaïa.

Selena Gomez and Taylor Swift (2016)

The BFF’s were each other’s dates to the Grammy awards where Taylor took home Album of The Year for 1989. Gomez wore a sparkling gown by Calvin Klein, while Swift went for a bright two-piece gown by Atelier Versace.

Cardi B (2019)

Cardi B’s vintage Mugler dress had viewers split on whether or not the outfit was a work of art or a red carpet flop.

Lizzo (2020)

Lizzo simultaneously channelled Britney Spears 2000 Grammy look and Jessica Rabbit in Atelier Versace. Lizzo had multiple outfit changes throughout the night to perform and pick up her many, many, awards.

Dua Lipa (2021)

Dua Lipa dazzled on the carpet in this sparkling Versace gown.

Harry Styles has become known for pushing the boundaries of men’s fashion over the years, and his yellow plaid moment combined with a purple feather boa scarf was no exception.
