The Best (And Worst) Dressed From The 2026 Grammys Red Carpet

Rise and shine, friends, because the 2026 Grammy Awards is upon us! Today, we celebrate the best, most accomplished musicians and artists across the globe. But before we find out who won the Grammy statuette, we get to judge them on a whole other category: their red carpet looks.

 

The Grammys are set to be a big night for music, with Kendrick Lamar leading the nomination contest with nine nods. Lady Gaga is right on his tail with seven, and Sabrina Carpenter following closely behind her with six noms.

But you’re here for the fashion, right? So, let’s get into judging.

All the best (and worst) red carpet looks at the 2026 Grammy Awards

Justin Bieber and Hailey Bieber

Justin and Hailey Bieber have made a red carpet appearance at the 2026 Grammys, and they’re looking classy as fuck — especially with their ‘fuck ICE’ pins. I’m also loving the extremely oversized suit on Justin. Still his usual comfy style, but not sweat pants!

Lady Gaga

MOTHERRRRR! (Photo by Amy Sussman/Getty Images)

Lady Gaga??? More like Lady Ga-GAGGED! Mother looks like she could either be the evil villain in a Disney film or the leader of a flock of crows… or both. Either way, we’re utterly speechless at this look, especially the dramatic high collar, vortex feather skirt and long ass train. Gobsmacked is an understatement.

Miley Cyrus

Her pin is like a glorified mockingjay. (Photo by Amy Sussman/Getty Images)

Katniss Everdeen would be so proud of Miley Cyrus‘ large golden pin. Hey Grammy’s look is kinda like DYstopian-meets-rock-star, and you know what? We’re absolutely here for it. The crisp white shirt mixed with the grunge leather jacket and corporate baddie heels is a vibe.

Tyla

YESSSS TYLA! She ate DOWN with this feathery ensemble. Firstly, the colour is absolutely incredible on her. Secondly, the feather train is giving c*nty feather duster, but in the best way possible. And with the side fringe pony? Yuppppp.

Kelsea Ballerini

Pattern and texture clashing? Hell yeah. (Photo by Amy Sussman/Getty Images)

I’m so glad people are having more fun with their Grammys red carpet looks than at the pre-show event. Kelsea Ballerini‘s sequin paisley fringe dress is a whole lot of chaos, but executed flawlessly. This could have very easily been a train wreck, but I’m obsessed. Everything comes together perfectly.

Madeleine White

Madeleine White attended the Grammys with DJ husband, Andrew Fedyk, and their unborn child! The influencer announced her pregnancy a few weeks ago on TikTok, so this is officially bub’s first red carpet. And, she’s picked a great dress to rock up in! The colour looks absolutely gorgeous on her.

Hayley Kalil

Very sleek. (Photo by Amy Sussman/Getty Images)

Influencer Hayley Kalil (AKA Haylee Baylee) stepped onto the carpet in something very different than her usual style. While the ex model typically wears a dress with a flowing skirt (after all, she’s got that iconic swoosh she has to do for the Glambot), she opted for a form-fitting mesh bodice and tight black skirt with latex gloves — maybe she knew that Glambot guy Cole Walliser wasn’t gonna be there? Typically, I’d say the black dress is boring, and while it’s not my favourite look from the night, I appreciate her shaking things up.

Michelle Williams

Bury me in this. (Image: Neilson Barnard/Getty Images for The Recording Academy)

Michelle Williams got the memo and is in all black with a little drama and I for one am here for it! It is giving a little pageant energy, but who doesn’t want to feel like a winner on the carpet?

Lola Young

More women in ties, please! (Photo by Jeff Kravitz/FilmMagic)

Again, I’m not sure why I like this as much as I do. If it was on anyone else, I’d say it’s too casual for a carpert, but Lola Young‘s effortless nonchalance suits it. The clash of the dramatically oversized collared shirt and tie (also, can more women please wear ties, it looks so hot) with the casual baggy jumper is serving. However the clowns on the jumper do unnerve me a little…

Kehlani

Goth fashion is so back in 2026. (Photo by Getty Images)

Another black dress! Kehlani looks like a witchy enchantress, and it’s working for her. Along with the smokey eye and jet black hair, she looks like she’s risen from the ashes. And the ‘fuck ICE’ badge?!?! YESSSS MY QUEEN.

YUNGBLUD

Sure, it’s not a plain black suit, but we’ve definitely seen this all-leather instalment from YUNGBLUD before. Yes, it’s cool, but it’s not really doing anything for me, sorry ’bout it.

FKA Twigs

I’m getting water nymph vibes. (Photo by Getty Images)

FKA Twigs‘ dress really put the ‘twigs’ in FKA Twigs. Her dress is super whimsical, kinda like she could be a water nymph or fairy dancing amidst the trees. Plus, the book and flower as her accessory further emphasise the fresh-out-of-a-romantasy-novel vibe, and I am absolutely here for it.

Pink Pantheress

Wooooo, some colour! (Photo by Getty Images)

Pink Pantheress is up for her first Grammy tonight, so you best believe she had to stand out on the carpet. And stand out, she did! Her gorgeous strapless dress has got to be one of my favourite outfits from the night so far. The colour blocking, the flowy ethereal sleeves, the elegant yet slightly messy updo. Stunning!

Sabrina Carpenter

Our angel!! (Image: Brianna Bryson/WireImage)

Our queen is here and we’re obsessed! There’s a lot going on with this dress, but all of it is working IMO. Is this hinting at a more whimsical, ethereal era for Ms Carpenter?

Kristy Scott

The matching shoes!! (Image: Amy Sussman/Getty Images)

Influencer Kristy Scott is stepping out on the town after announcing her separation from her husband Desmond Scott at the end of last year and you just know that man is punching the air right now.

Rosé

BLACKPINK represent! (Image: Brianna Bryson/WireImage)

My New Zealand queen, I want to love this, but I fear I will never get behind a mullet dress. Points for doing something a ‘lil different though!

Hi Coco!! (Image: Kevin Mazur/Getty Images for The Recording Academy)

It’s definitely giving loofa, clubbing, tulle realness and that’s all I’ll say!

Addison Rae

Okay so I am eating my words because this backwards mullet dress is innovation at it’s finest!! The deep plunging neck line, the exaggerated hips, the shoes that would give anyone the most gnarly blisters!!! No notes!!

Olivia Dean

Yes, yes, yes!! (Image: Amy Sussman/Getty Images)

Miss Livvy Dean has stepped out on the Grammy Red Carpet after her performance at the pre-show in this incredible dress, finally bringing some much-needed drama to the event!

KATSEYE

DIVA CONVENTION!! (Image: Amy Sussman/Getty Images)

The diva convention has officially arrived on the carpet with KATSEYE showing up in incredible fits. Honestly, I don’t think we’ve seen matching perfection since Destiny’s Child and I am so grateful for it!!

Zara Larsson

She’s finally having her moment. (Image: Amy Sussman/Getty Images)

She’s out of the Kia Asylum and onto the Grammy Red Carpet!! Zara Larsson is channeling major “Midnight Sun” energy with the bold look! Although I’m surprised there’s no bold makeup to match.

Chappell Roan

THIS IS WHAT THE GRAMMY’S IS ABOUT!!! Finally someone is taking risks on this damn carpet and it’s about damn time. Chappell you never let us down with your fits!! Get her stylist a raise!

Sombr

This stance is giving my primary school teacher catching me with that no hat, no play look. (Image: Brianna Bryson/WireImage)

Credit where credit is due! We love a man who doesn’t just give a black suit on a red carpet. Although this does seem like a sensory nightmare.

Gesaffelstein

Mum can you pick me up? I’m scared. (Photo by Amy Sussman/Getty Images)

French DJ and co-writer of Lady Gaga‘s album Mayhem, Gesaffelstein, took to the carpet in his signature, dark mask. He’s known as ‘the Dark Prince of techno’, so it’s fitting, but it does give me the creeps, I can’t lie.

Benson Boone

At least try??? (Photo by Amy Sussman/Getty Images)

Sorry, Bensone Boone, but I’m bored. I appreciate him trying to do something a little different with the high neckline of the waistcoat, but we’ve seen a different font of the same black suit a million times before.

Alex Warren and Kouvr

He clearly hasn’t been taken out of the ordinary. (Photo by Amy Sussman/Getty Images)

Alex Warren says he’s been taken out of the ordinary, but his bland suit is showing the complete opposite. His wife, Kouvr, loks gorgeous! But again, her dress is just sitting in the mid range for me.

All the best (and worst) pre-Grammy event red carpet looks

Olivia Dean (again)

The dress is a musical instrument in itself. (Photo by Amy Sussman/Getty Images)

Olivia Dean looks so sweet at the ! Typically, I don’t like when celebs opt for a black dress — I see it as a bit of a cop out — but I think she looks darling. I’m not too sure about the neckline, but the dress itself is giving gothic mermaid vibes. I wonder if it shakes like a tambourine when she moves…

Demi Lovato

I think we’ve seen this film before. (Photo by Leon Bennett/Getty Images for The Recording Academy)

*Sigh*. I think we’ve seen this look on Demi Lovato a gazillion times already? I guess don’t fix what ain’t broke, but I’d like if they added a little spice to shake things up. They look great, though. The glam team ate down.

Laufey

My jazzy queen. (Photo by Leon Bennett/Getty Images for The Recording Academy)

I think if anyone else wore this, I’d seriously be questioning their stylist’s choices. But this nod to the ’80s looks so damn cute on Laufey. Paired with the hair and soft glam, she looks like a satin mint angel sent from jazz heaven. I can imagine her serenading a crowd at some classy dinner right after a short stopover at the Grammys.

Sombr (again)

Cowboy goes to the disco? (Photo by Leon Bennett/Getty Images for The Recording Academy)

I appreciate when a man does something to jazz up his plain black suit, and Sombr has done exactly that! I love the silver tassels paired with the little studs lining his shirt. Plus, the deep neckline and necklace stack is giving absolutely everything it needs to. And the white shoes to top it off? This may be one of my favourite of the men’s looks.

MGK

Why do I not hate this? (Photo by Leon Bennett/Getty Images for The Recording Academy)

I’m a little confused with what’s going on with MGK‘s outfit, but I don’t hate it! There’s something about it that works extremely well for him… even the Converse, which I’d typically say is a BIG no-go on a red carpet. I think the undone-harness (I think it’s a harness?) and heavily-studded belt paired with his silver jewellery is tying everything in together. Very rockstar, very cool.

Margaret Zhang

Hmmmmmm. (Photo by Leon Bennett/Getty Images for The Recording Academy)

Aussie brand’s represent! Remember that SIR The Label dress that had a huge moment in 2023/2024? I swear this is the exact dress. While Margaret Zhang would certainly be the coolest person at the Year 12 school formal, I don’t think this dress quite cuts it for the Grammys.

Heidi Klum

Wowza! (Photo by Leon Bennett/Getty Images for The Recording Academy)

Heidi Klum, the woman you are! She looks jaw-droppingly beautiful in this vibrant red gown. The deep V, along with the asymmetrical waste and fringe skirt is divine, not to mention the fur coat she’s paired it with. A bold take on a classic, executed flawlessly!

Shaboozey

Giddy-up, cowboy! (Photo by Leon Bennett/Getty Images for The Recording Academy)

YES! A man not in a suit who is still absolutely slaying! I love this knitted vest Shaboozey has got going on. That, with the matching cowboy hat and trousers, is slaying the house boots down.

Jade Thirlwall

Welcome to New York! (Photo by Leon Bennett/Getty Images for The Recording Academy)

It’s kinda like if the Statue of Liberty and a Greek goddess had a baby… and I’m not sure how to feel about it. On one hand, I love how unique Jade Thirlwall looks. But on the other, the neckline is and random tassel of fabric hanging off the dress is throwing me off.

Madison Beer

An angel on Earth. (Photo by Leon Bennett/Getty Images for The Recording Academy)

Madison Beer, my slept-on pop princess! The singer looks absolutely ethereal in this eggshell-white dress. It drapes beautifully, and the split adds a little pizzazz. I do think we’ve seen her rinse this look a few times now, but I’ll let it slide in the hopes she’ll give us something a bit different at the next awards show.

Dove Cameron and Damiano David

My shaylas! (Photo by Leon Bennett/Getty Images for The Recording Academy)

I grin whenever I see Dove Cameron and Damiano David together. They’re the hottest couple on the Grammys carpet, FR! They also eat up their red carpet looks every single time. Dove Cameron is rocking a dove grey dress — very fitting — that’s lowkey reminiscent of the flowy, drapey dresses of the Roman Empire (do you see what I mean??) and Damiano David is literally from Rome. CUTEEEE!!!!

As for Damiano David’s outfit? I would usually say that a plain black suit is boring, but he’s done a full 180 from his gothic award show outfits from when his band, Måneskin, would hit the carpet together. So this is quite new for him, and I love it. He looks like an absolute ray of sunshine. These guys are my favourite golden retriever and black cat couple by far.

Winnie Harlow

FACE CARDDDD. (Photo by Leon Bennett/Getty Images for The Recording Academy)

Winnie Harlow‘s glam squad was not playing around when they did her beat — she looks ethereal. The warm, toasty glam matches her hair perfectly, as does the dress. And the cape?! Divine! We need more monochromatic looks like this one.

Tyla (again)

Make me sweatttttt. (Photo by Leon Bennett/Getty Images for The Recording Academy)

Tyla knows what works for her, and sticks to it. She looks like the absolute baddie she is in this slinky black number. I love the flow of the top, and how it meets in a choker at the base of her neck. However, I can’t stop staring at her fluro yellow nails, and I can’t say that I love them.

Paris Hilton

Sooo was there a colour theme? (Photo by Leon Bennett/Getty Images for The Recording Academy)

I guess the girlies all made a group chat and decided to coordinate on wearing black this year? Maybe they all decided that it’s about time we stop hating on the ‘little black dress’, because so far, everyone looks great in it. I do like that this look is very different for Paris Hilton — we typically see her in colour ant this is quite gothic. And while I appreciate the bedazzled waist line and deep V (it’s kinda like Tyla’s dress’ cousin), I just wish there was a little more going on.

Conan Gray

Ahhhh so handsome! (Photo by Leon Bennett/Getty Images for The Recording Academy)

Conan Gray is an absolute sweetie, and so is his outfit! The soft femininity of the Gossip Girlesque bow tie and embroidered florals around the border of his suit jacket give the traditionally masculine blazer a soft edge. That, paired with his face framing curls, makes him look like a romantic lover boy. And that, he is!

Suki Waterhouse

Yep! (Photo by Leon Bennett/Getty Images for The Recording Academy)

I love a woman in a suit, especially when it’s an unconventional one! Suki Waterhouse‘s tailored(ish) vest is reminiscent of my nonna’s curtains, but I think it’s fun! Especially paired with the velvet tie. I know the show’s done and dusted, but it’s giving Daisy Jones and The Six vibes.

We’ll keep updating this as celebrities rock up to the carpet, so keep checking in.
