The Grammy’s: 2025’s best and worst hits

Music’s biggest night is here once more and with it comes one of fashion’s biggest nights: The Grammy’s red carpet. Musicians, influencers and nobodies alike flock to the carpet to show off some daring leg slits, over-the-top accessories and questionable haircuts. While some celebrities showed up and showed out, others probably would’ve benefitted from just staying at home.

Starting off strong with Taylor Swift in a custom Vivienne Westwood, the sparkly red asymmetrical dress is one of the best looks of the night. While the length of the dress shows off a dainty chain, adorned with the letter “T,” perhaps the gown would’ve looked a little better if it were floor length, bringing the sort of elegance a night like the Grammy’s often requires. Nonetheless, this piece is still stunning and that’s really all you can ask for from somebody like Swift who was never really known for her red carpet choices.

Next, we have Miley Cyrus in a black floor length Saint Laurent cut-out gown. While her face card may never decline, the same cannot be said for her outfit or hair. The leathery material makes the gown ill-fitting by the waist resembling that of a garbage bag rather than a Saint Laurent dress.

Similarly, Lady Gaga wore a Vivienne Westwood leather jacket buttoned to the top paired with a black ball gown-esque skirt. While she may not have been serving garbage bag per se, she was definitely serving Wednesday Addams. And not in a good way.

Cardi B stunned in a custom Roberto Cavalli black and gold gown. The floor length piece creates a beautiful silhouette that eventually fades out to a feathery train and her hair offers a timeless and effortlessly beautiful look that some other hairstyles tonight did not offer.

Wearing a custom JW Anderson baby blue gown, Sabrina Carpenter once again channeled 1950’s star Marilyn Monroe for her first ever Grammy’s. The “Short ‘n’ Sweet” singer’s mermaid gown was adorned by a layer of feathers in the middle and at the bottom with a beautiful halter top containing a pearl strap to tie the look together.

Doechii wore an… interesting Thom Brown suit gown that protruded at the hips. Under the gray striped gown was a white button up with stripes and a gray tie to match. While it’s not the worst look of the night, I don’t think the combination of a suit and a dress would do anyone any favors.

Finally, we have Chappell Roan in an archival Jean Paul Gaultier piece. The Midwest Princess, best known for her outspokenness and over-the-top outfits, brought, once again, a well-needed pop of uniqueness to an awards ceremony that becomes all too familiar when it comes to fashion. The yellow and teal gown with a low to high skirt adorned with beautiful images of women, paired nicely with mesh teal gloves and a matching feathery hair piece.
