Leave it to BTS to arrive in cashmere Louis Vuitton, or Lil Nas X to wear the most striking outfit of the night – but we can’t say we saw Tayla Parx’s look coming

Justin Bieber wore a pair of insane Balenciaga x Crocs, Doja Cat and Dua Lipa opted for Versace, and everyone seemed to don hot pink at some point

The 64th annual Grammy Awards travelled to the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas on Sunday night, rather than the usual gala in Los Angeles. Hosted by Trevor Noah, the long-awaited extravaganza saw thrilling performances from Lady Gaga, Justin Bieber, Billie Eilish, Olivia Rodrigo and H.E.R., among others.

Before the awards ceremony, we all watched as music’s biggest stars paraded the red carpet in Sin City. Unlike the classic haute couture gowns and dazzling diamond high jewellery of the Oscars, stars at the Grammys more often than not opt for something more daring or in a (much) brighter hue. This year, the male stars outshone their female counterparts, and a handful of couples brought the cute factor to the red carpet.

From Billy Porter’s androgynous Valentino look to Dua Lipa’s iconic Versace bondage dress, here’s our take on the best and worst dressed celebrity looks on the 64th Grammys Awards’ red carpet.

The Grammys’ best dressed

Red carpet staple Lil Nas X rarely fails to turn heads with his norm-challenging outfits. Nominated for five Grammys this year, the singer cut an incredible silhouette in a white pearl-studded, shoulder padded Balmain suit, a design similar to the US$20,000 dress Kim Kardashian wore in Paris in 2014.

Another fashion chameleon that never disappoints is Billy Porter. The American singer showed up dressed head to toe in hot pink Valentino from the brand’s latest Pink PP Collection, designed by the fashion house’s creative director Pierpaolo Piccioli.

US rapper Saweetie opted for Valentino’s striking fuchsia look too, showing up in a sensational long skirt, bra top and long gloves. She paired the outfit with Valentino’s Garavani Tango shoes to finish the look.

Then, in case the Valentino number didn’t make a big enough impression, the Bestie singer changed into a gorgeous black taffeta bubble Oscar de la Renta gown.
