It’s the music night of nights — the 65th annual Grammy Awards has rolled around to celebrate the most outstanding achievements in the music industry from the past year. If Renaissance nominations roll in her favor, Beyoncé will become the most awarded Grammy winner of all time.
But on the hotly anticipated fashion side of things, celebrities came in fast and fresh, with Laverne Cox wowing in a sleek crocodile leather dress and Lizzo in an orange floral ensemble. Red proved to be a popular choice too — as seen on Sam Smith and Kim Petras. Meanwhile, Doja Cat and Taylor Swift also graced the red carpet.
While the awards ceremony is usually known for pushing the boundaries and taking risks with its red carpet style, this year we’re seeing more muted choices across the board — a potential nod to the broader Recession Core trend opted into by famous cohorts in 2023. Negative space is proving to be the big style choice at the Grammys this year, with cutouts and subversive basic inspiration weaving into the monochrome suits and gowns.
Fear not, though, as the guests still brought the drama, like Dencia’s crystal explosion and Kasey Musgraves repping a flamingo pink feather cape.
Ahead, we round up our favorite style moments from the 2023 Grammy Awards’ red carpet.
