The Grammy Red Carpet – If The Dresses Could Talk

The Grammys: that awards ceremony when musicians don’t really get the same volume of designer swag that the movie awards shows get and you sometimes wonder if certain people have stylists at all. Sure, it’s an excuse to be edgy, to wear a short dress if you want, to use profanity on the red carpet (and on stage) and to hook up with that guy in that band that you saw in Rolling Stone that one time. But, it’s also a good excuse to dress up in a beautiful gown. Here’s our breakdown of what these dresses would say if they could speak...

The Grammy Red Carpet – If The Dresses Could Talk

1 of 10

Beyonce in Michael Costello

Bey has been working out like cray lately and wanted something to show off her sick body so here I am - a Michael Costello cutouts number sewn right onto her body. Judging by Jamie Foxx’s comments from the stage, my sexiness might have been a little too much for him to handle.

Katy Perry in Valentino

I’m slightly exhausted and jet-lagged since I literally JUST got off the plane from the couture shows where I waltzed (sorry) down the catwalk a day ago. Of course Katy had to have me: I’m like a tutu, but with music notes. It’s like I was made for the Grammys. Or a musical jewellery box.

Taylor Swift in Gucci

Well, truth be told there weren’t many girls that could wear me tonight. I’m kind of heavy and the chain mail construction scratches a lot at the skin. But I know Taylor and she will endure anything to get on a best-dressed list. And I admire a girl with that kind of commitment to fashion.

Madonna and David in Ralph Lauren

It was actually David’s idea for he and his mum to wear matching suits. Madonna loves a bit of menswear anyway - it really falls in line with her power-woman persona. I wish she’d kept it just to the suit and ditched the glove and the cane, but what can you do? It's Madonna? There's no telling her.

Pink in Joanna Johnson

Sure I’m a bit traditional, but I'm pink. And Pink's wearing me. (Oh, even I'm bored of that gag already...)

6 of 10

Rita Ora in Lanvin

Some people said I made it look like Rita Ora was wearing a metallic scuba suit. I say, I'm Lanvin. And you don't diss Lanvin.

7 of 10

Lorde

The gold of those Grammy awards will look so good against this black. Ah, the advantages of being worn by a serious artist, not some frou frou plastic-popstrel.

8 of 10

Paris Hilton in House of Milani

I'm trying to made side boob a thing, ok. (Probably starting on Paris Hilton wasn't the best idea)

9 of 10

Iggy Azalea in Ellie Saab

Well the idea was that I was going to look kind of angelic and sweet, and hopefully no one else would wear white. Then a ton of other people wore white. Including Beyonce.

Pharrell’s Hat

We knew Miley wasn't coming tonight so Pharrell and I had a pow wow and thought what can we get trending on Twitter? The result was me: and three spoof Twitter accounts in my name. Not bad.
