T Swizzy in Gucci. Boom! After the Globes success the singer is finding her feet this red-carpet season. One to watch for the Oscars perhaps? Photograph: Jon Kopaloff/FilmMagic
Are Madonna and her son David on their way to a singalonga-Bugsy-Malone night? What works about this double Ralph Lauren look is that the Grammys are more about putting on a show than style nous on the red carpet. What doesn't work is, well, everything else Photograph: Jordan Strauss/Jordan Strauss/Invision/AP
It looks as if you could actually drink Rita Ora's Lanvin dress and the lime cordial vibe feels right for the occasion. The Grammy's red carpet isn't the right arena for cutting-edge fashion and this knee-length number says modern party. We wish more Grammy attendees had had the same idea Photograph: Jason Merritt/Getty Images
Music for music? Bum note! Yes, it's super-literal but that's what we've come to expect from the Perry style canon. The good thing about this is that it's Valentino Couture, so the lightness comes from the actual construction of the dress and not the clunky reference Photograph: Steve Granitz/WireImage
Bronze sparkle, a softly styled hair do and a baby bump. What's not to like? Photograph: Jon Kopaloff/FilmMagic

We're above the knee-jerk 'is that doily chic?' kinda reaction in the fashion desk. But we do have issues. It's not the premise of the dress but the execution. The origami cutout bits just look a little too heavy handed and that's not what we expect from Bey Photograph: Paul Buck/EPA
Christine's skill in balancing hem and hair does not detract from the basic fact that doing a gold fishtail is a fashion flatline. Proof that Grammy night is the nursery slopes of red-carpet eventing Photograph: Jon Kopaloff/FilmMagic
J-Rob disappointed at the Golden Globes in office wear but she more than makes up for it with her Grammy attire. She was at the awards to introduce Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr, but she used the opportunity to show us what a simple black lace shift dress and pumps can do Photograph: Kevin Mazur/WireImage
This dress is just so 'dance', is it not? The spray tan, the lashes and the 'bare' back (we couldn't resist showing the back view). Paris takes the Dancing On Ice look for a proper night out Photograph: JaniceOgata/MPI/Capital Pictures/JaniceOgata/MPI/Capital Pictures
When someone goes all quirky for their wedding and makes their bridesmaids do vampy red … that Photograph: Jason Merritt/Getty Images
Lilac bob, gothic cross 'back-necklace', crystal shoulders – Kelly Osbourne exemplifies the Ricky's NYC look. It suits her but her mum owns the TM on this wardrobe surely? Photograph: Jim Smeal/BEI/REX/Jim Smeal/BEI/REX
Fringe for the face and a fringe for the dress. Bedingfield looks sure of neither Photograph: Christopher Polk/Getty Images for NARAS
