The Grammy Awards often feel like a red carpet playground, because musicians have a reputation for being more playful than actors when it comes to personal style. And the 2024 ceremony didn’t disappoint, offering plenty of lively looks, from Taylor Swift’s sculptural Schiaparelli with a watch-clock choker necklace set to midnight, to Ice Spice’s throwback all-denim Baby Phat fit—which felt straight out of ’90s peak fashion—to Victoria Monét’s mommy-and-me moment with her toddler daughter in matching Versace.
Ahead, the 10 best dressed celebrities at the 66th Grammys.
Dua Lipa in custom Courrèges and Tiffany & Co.
When asked about her custom Courrèges gown covered in silver paillettes, and styled with a Tiffany & Co. necklace (which was two koi fishes caught in a kiss), Dua Lipa said she felt “very strong.” And while the deep V-neck look with cutouts at the hips absolutely looks like something a Barbie would wear while shimmying to “Dance the Night,” it really feels more Joan of Arc than anything—but we’re sure the early feminist would have also been a Barbie stan.
Miley Cyrus in custom Margiela
With custom Margiela and a close-to-God updo, Miley Cyrus is channeling both her own godmother, Dolly Parton, and the godmother of red carpet iconography, Cher. This barely-there gold metal look is made up of hundreds of safety pins and was created for her by John Galliano, who referenced a similar look from his FW 1996 collection. Between this look and the designer’s viral Margiela couture show, 2024 is shaping up to be a comeback of sorts for the designer, who shaped much of the ’90s and early ’00s with theatrical shows that found their way onto the red carpet.
Taylor Swift in Schiaparelli couture
Only Taylor Swift could trend hours before the Grammys by just changing her profile picture to a black-and-white photo. Fans were searching high and low for any Easter eggs that would suggest the highly anticipated (and much-speculated-about) Reputation (Taylor’s Version) drop, so when Swift’s website suspiciously went down shortly before the ceremony, she sent Twitter into a spiral. Swifties assumed the singer would surely be wearing all black—an homage to that payback era—but instead, she wore a sculptural white Schiaparelli couture gown with long trains and a high leg slit, black opera gloves, and a choker watch necklace (with the time set to midnight). Of course, fans are dissecting every last detail as we write this—or would be, if they weren’t freaking out about her big announcement.
Ice Spice in Baby Phat
Back in the 2000s, the Grammys were Grammy-ing. In that era, not every musician had a stylist yet, and they’d wear Canadian tuxedos, skirts over pants, apple-bottom jeans and boots with the fur with reckless abandon. It was FUN. So of course leave it to Ice Spice to bring that same kind of energy in 2024 with a Baby Phat denim look trimmed with fuzzy details. She may have been barely a month old when the 2000 Grammys took place, but her looks feels like it could have pulled right from that red carpet.
Gracie Abrams in Chanel
On the other hand, Spice’s fellow Best New Artist nominee Gracie Abrams went more subtle, in an all-black midriff-baring two-piece set by Chanel. When asked by red carpet host Laverne Cox about it, Abrams said she just wanted to “feel like I was in my own skin—and also match my mom.” While Abrams and Ice Spice were wearing two completely different looks, each wore something that felt so true to her personal style. Abrams really did look like one of her songs come to life.
Olivia Rodrigo in archival Versace
Olivia Rodrigo channeled Old Hollywood glamor in a white gown speckled in shimmering embellishments. The look was archival Versace from the Spring 1995 collection, originally worn by supermodel Linda Evangelista. Rodrigo consistently has the best vintage pulls, the kind that her Gen Z audience lust after online and would probably write an angsty, envious ballad about wishing they owned.
Laverne Cox in archival Comme des Garçons
One thing you can always expect Laverne Cox to do is not only style herself, but also show up in a piece from her own personal archival. Cox is just that fashion girl. For tonight, she wore a Spring/Summer 2015 Comme des Garçons look. She loves it because of what Rei Kawakubo said the collection was meant to represent, which was all about finding the beauty in things that are disturbing.
Tyla in custom Versace
The only thing better than winning your first Grammy at 22 years old is winning your first Grammy at 22 years old in custom Versace. Tyla’s asymmetrical pastel-green gown with wraparound swaths of fabric resembled similar gowns from the house’s 2004 collection. But perhaps the most Y2K detail was how the fabric wrapped around her to expose her hips, upper thighs, and bellybutton ring—the last of which is perhaps the most unexpected comeback trend of 2024 in the making.
Caroline Polachek in archival Olivier Theyskens
Caroline Polachek isn’t known just for her music, but also for the visual world she’s been able to create. Her archival FW 1998 Olivier Theyskens look isn’t just major because it’s major, but also because it also feels completely in tune with her otherworldly universe. It feels as though this look, with a red lace panel that appears to erupt, creating cracks in her black gown, was made for her, even though it came to be long before she set foot in the studio.
Victoria Monét in Versace
Everyone is always talking about couples who coordinate their looks—but what could possibly be more iconic than a mommy-and-me Versace look? Victoria Monét twinned with her daughter, Hazel, who is officially a best dressed Grammys guest at just two years old.
