Black dandy culture took center stage, blending heritage and high fashion
This Roberto Cavalli snakeskin number doesn't know whether to stay on or slither off.
Her strapless mermaid dress by Jean Paul Gaultier appears rather drab. And the rows of gathered ruffles tend to sink the outfit.
She might be having fun, but what's with the black road-warrior look?
This cream Zuhair Murad mini dress nearly worked. But it was the black detailing that looked odd. Aren't you supposed to wear a belt around the waist?
Can anybody remember the Royal Canadian Mounted Police being asked to supervise male fashion at the 2014 edition of the Grammys?
Her penchant for menswear is well known, but here she looks like an undertaker.
It may say Jean Paul Gaultier on the label, but the reality is we all know a deluxe bathrobe when we see one.
This gown looked stunning, that is until someone accidentally spilled silver nail polish over it.
Sheer, lacy, and with a sequin collar. So far, so good. But what's with the peekaboo cleavage?
The problem with being young is that coordination just goes out of the window.
A black shapeless Maggie Marylin dress and Jimmy Choo combat boots. Chic-goth perhaps, but it's the pale yellow rose that catches everybody's eye.
Sharp suit or military fatigues? A rather uniform fashion sense if ever there was one.
How to model a fashion straight jacket, with little room to maneuver.
Now here's a good idea. Why book a hotel room when you can bring along your own sleeping bag?
Pantsuit? Nearly. Elvis Presley jumpsuit? Definitely.
A custom Gucci look with matching nails? More like creepy, weird, and scary poster child for late-adolescent angst. But hey, that works too.
Here's how to look totally underwhelmed for such an overwhelming event.
The latest harlequin look, or borrowed golf sweater?
No shirt, no jacket, and no tie. Just two-tone hair and a striped baggy jumper. Sorted!
A sequin top minidress may work at a teenager's birthday party, but impressing on the red carpet requires a little more finesse. And why is Joe Jonas looking so glum?
It's amazing how much influence Tim Burton has on red carpet fashion.
This pale pink, zippered gown by fashion designer Stephane Rolland was probably a good idea at the time. But it's a heavy and clumsy choice.
A black and white lace catsuit paired with a billowing black skirt. Fancy funeral or fashion faux pas?
It’s hard to know if Bianca Censori should really be on this list, as she technically didn’t wear much at all. The model and wife of Kanye West showed up in a floor-length fur coat, until, following a nod from West, she dropped it to the floor to reveal one of his own designs, which was completely see-through. Taking sheer to the next level, this mini dress quite literally revealed all...
Jaden Smith decided to show up to the 2025 Grammys dressed as a castle. To be precise, he wore a black suit with a matching foam castle covering his whole head, with a circle cut out for his face. The Grammy nominee didn’t explain why he showed up as if he were attending a fancy dress competition, but then again it was Louis Vuitton, so maybe we can forgive him!
Lady Gaga was definitely calling all her Little Monsters with this gothic look. Whether it’s weird or wonderful, we’re not sure. But this high-neck, long-sleeve, all-black Vivienne Westwood gown became even more iconic when decorated with vintage Tiffany & Co. jewels and topped with the most severe haircut of the night.

We’re not sure where to even begin with this one. The singer-songwriter chose a crypto-inspired gold dress with $WIF accessorizes, which included an oversized necklace featuring a dog in a knitted beanie. Topped off with a red hat saying ‘The hat stays on,’ as an obvious nod to her new president, for whom she has shown enormous support, this bizarre combination has to have been the worst look on the carpet.
