The 2025 Grammy Awards ceremony kicked off in Los Angeles on Sunday, with the red carpet serving as a vibrant prelude to the evening’s honors. Among the glittering arrivals, several artists were already celebrating early victories.
Sabrina Carpenter made a striking entrance in a pale blue, backless gown adorned with delicate feathers, an appearance that followed her win for Best Pop Vocal Performance. Similarly, Kacey Musgraves, who secured the award for Best Country Song, opted for a contrasting look, pairing a simple white tank top with an elaborate gold-fringed skirt.
The fashion statements ranged from the dramatic to the minimalist. Chappell Roan arrived in full face paint, while Billie Eilish and Finneas chose coordinated, sleek suiting. Taylor Swift commanded attention in a sparkling crimson mini-dress, and Olivia Rodrigo turned heads in a sophisticated black gown with strategic cut-outs.
Other notable appearances included Charli XCX in a ruffled gray dress following her dual wins in dance categories, and Cardi B in a regal gold ensemble with a feathered train. The carpet also saw bold choices, such as Jaden Smith’s architectural headpiece and Bianca Censori’s sheer look.
The evening blended high fashion with early accolades, setting the stage for the main ceremony hosted by Trevor Noah.
