One of the main reasons I watch award shows (particularly the Grammys) is to see the amazing outfits that are on display; both on the red carpet and during performances.
Some of the gowns that I saw were pieces of art, and truly showcased the artists wearing them.
Beyonce was looking incredible in this white applique couture Michael Costello gown. This "naked" dress compliments her body beautifully and the placement of the pattern looks perfect on her curves.
Michael Costello, the 27 year old (also known from Project Runway season 8) is certainly stealing the spotlight from other young designers.
B and Jay Z are perfect. That is all.
I also loved this dress on Taylor Swift by Gucci Premiere.
This dress is extremely glamourous and structured but still soft. I am not sure about these platform Jimmy Choo heels, but otherwise I think she is styled beautifully.
Ciara looked gorgeous in Emilio Pucci.
She looked like a bronze goddess in this embroidered sequin design, while showing off her baby bump. I would have loved to see another color lip to help break up the same tone of the dress, skin, and hair, but otherwise she is gorgeous.
Lastly, I was in love with this look on Giuliana Rancic by Alex Perry.
The orange was just gorgeous on her complexion, and I loved the nude combination with the orange lace.
Being on Fashion Police, Giuliana has an eye for style, and this dress definitely proves it.
Besides bizarre Smokey Bear hats, there were some other looks in my opinion that were missing the mark on the red carpet.
Anna Kendrick is wearing Azzaro, and is beautiful- but I don't think this dress/shoe combo does her justice. The top looks too big on her and doesn't fit well, and the slit seems to come up to far. She has got to choose between showing skin on top or the bottom, and there is a lot going on with this dress. I think it distracts from how beautiful she truly is.
Katy Perry was working with this Valentino Couture gown, which kind of made her look like a poofy, cliche fairy. I get that it is the Grammys, but it bugs me how literal this dress is. I believe Katy Perry is better than this. I also hate the nude sleeves that look like something you would have with a cheap Halloween costume.
Kacey Musgraves, the breakout country star looked pretty in this Armani Prive dress, but the look is overwhelming. Too much tulle- cascading layers and a bow on top. She is beautiful but could use to lose some of the fluff.
However, I thought she looked adorable performing in this short and colorful outfit with light up cowboy boots. Way to redeem yourself.
Overall, I loved most of the Grammys looks and decided to comment on only a few. I hope you enjoyed watching them as much as I did, and are getting excited for the upcoming Oscar Awards!
Best,
