The 68th Grammys<\/a>\u00a0red carpet is in full swing with Gen Z stars like Lola Young and PinkPantheress delivering fresh takes on red carpet fashion.<\/p>\n

The British rising stars who are shaking up the music industry with their individual sounds both opted for vastly different Vivienne Westwood looks Sunday. Best new artist nominee Young, who is back after taking a brief hiatus last year, sported an army green sweatsuit printed with children\u2019s toys on the carpet. PinkPantheress opted for a signature corseted off-the-shoulder gown draped with the Union Jack symbol.<\/p>\n

The Grammys<\/a>\u00a0are a night of rule-breaking looks and memorable fashion statements where artists shed the traditional playbook of red carpet dressing and take style risks. For\u00a0music\u2019s biggest night<\/a>\u00a0Sunday, celebrities will playfully toe the line<\/a>\u00a0between costume and contemporary whether it\u2019s with sexy, dramatic or eccentric ensembles.<\/p>\n

Stars respectfully toned down their attire last year, choosing instead to go with more subdued or all black looks in light of the destruction left by the Los Angeles wildfires.<\/p>\n

At\u00a0this year\u2019s Grammys<\/a>\u00a0red carpet, some stars are embracing the unconventional.<\/p>\n

FKA Twigs brought her album \u201cEusexua\u201d to life on the carpet wearing a beige sheer flowy Paolo Carzana dress which she paired with a book and an orchid. The artist told Variety that the book is part of the lore of her \u201cEusexua\u201d album for which she won best dance\/electronic album early in the night.<\/p>\n

With any red carpet, there is bound to be some drama. Two stars had a fashion face-off at the start of the night with singer Ledisi and TV host Jasmine Simpkins both flaunting the same off-the-shoulder pink peach dress with sparkly tinsel.<\/p>\n

A green Versace becomes legendary<\/h4>\n

The Grammy Awards began in 1959 by honoring music legends from Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jr., and Dean Martin. Since then, red carpet dressing has only become more daring and over-the-top.<\/p>\n

Who could forget Jennifer Lopez\u2019s legendary Versace green dress at the 2000 Grammy awards? The jungle-print dress with its striking decolletage is credited as the inspiration behind Google Images,<\/a> according to Google,<\/a> due to the high volume of search queries online at the time to see photos of the dress.<\/p>\n

Last year, model Bianca Censori<\/a> took the meaning of barely there to new heights when she posed with Rapper Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, on the carpet in a transparent dress with nothing underneath.<\/p>\n

For some artists, the red carpet is another opportunity to bring their music personas to life. Lady Gaga is not one to shy away from the drama on the carpet. In 2011, Lady Gaga was carried into the carpet inside of an egg. A year later, rapper Nicki Minaj arrived on the red carpet in a red-hooded Versace ensemble with her date, who was dressed like the Pope.<\/p>\n

Rather than wearing costumery, stars also take a more subtle route with eye catching statement accessories. Taylor Swift matched her Vivienne Westwood red sparkling mini dress in 2025 with a necklace with the letter \u201cT\u201d dangling on her thigh. The letter sparked conversation from her fans online with some questioning whether the \u201cT\u201d was for Swift herself or her fianc\u00e9 Travis Kelce.<\/p>\n

Artists also take risks with their headpieces. Jaden Smith paired his Louis Vuitton suit with a castle headpiece<\/a> for the 2025 Grammys. In 2024, Slipknot band member Sid Wilson<\/a> rocked a gas mask on the carpet.<\/p>\n

Unlike the tuxedos at other award shows, male Grammy nominees shake things up like Harry Styles wearing a colorful checkered jumpsuit<\/a> or singer Troye Sivan dressed in sheer lilac.<\/p>\n

Newcomers get to shine<\/h4>\n

At the Grammys, the carpet is a chance for up-and-coming artists to shine among industry legends and their peers.<\/p>\n

This year, a fashionable bunch of artists make up the hotly contested best new artist category.<\/a> Rising star Addison Rae aptly has a song titled \u201cHigh Fashion.\u201d Will the starlet wear an archival fashion look?<\/p>\n

Chappell Roan, who won best new artist<\/a> last year, donned a yellow tulle archival Jean Paul Gaultier couture gown printed with Degas\u2019 famous ballerinas on the carpet. She later wore several other looks throughout the ceremony.<\/p>\n

The showstopping getups don\u2019t stop once the carpet closes for the night. Some celebrities debut new looks inside. Miley Cyrus stunned in a shimmery silver Bob Mackie number while performing her hit song \u201cFlowers\u201d onstage in 2024. The stylish list of performers set to perform this year includes Lady Gaga, Sabrina Carpenter, Justin Bieber and Pharrell Williams.<\/p>\n

First-time nominee PinkPantheress posed on the carpet in a Vivienne Westwood Union Jack gown. When the star first started, she told The Associated Press on Sunday, she didn\u2019t like to show her face or be perceived.<\/p>\n

The singer embraced by Gen Z and known for her U.K. garage hits is nominated for two awards.<\/p>\n

How to watch<\/h4>\n

The Associated Press will stream a four-hour red carpet show<\/a> with interviews and fashion footage. It will be streamed on YouTube and APNews.com.<\/p>\n

The main show will air live from LA\u2019s Crypto.com Arena on CBS beginning at 8 p.m. Eastern Sunday. Paramount+ premium plan subscribers will be able to stream the telecast live, too. (Paramount+ essential subscribers will have on-demand access the next day.)<\/p>\n

The Grammys can also be watched through live TV streaming services that include CBS in their lineup, like Hulu + Live TV, YouTube TV and FuboTV.<\/p>\n
