\n\tThe \u201cCowboys Cry Too\u201d singer turned to the Italian fashion label\u2019s spring 2026 ready-to-wear collection<\/a> for her look. The dress featured some nods to the 1990s and early aughts, with a scoop neckline and thin straps. <\/p>\n

\n\tThroughout the dress, a gilded gold laurel leaf motif cascaded throughout the material, adding fabric contrast and harkening back to the spring collection from which Ballerini\u2019s dress took inspiration. A corset detail at the back of the singer\u2019s look gave the silhouette of the dress a more streamlined, sensual appearance to boot. <\/p>\n

\n\tAs for jewelry pieces, Ballerini went mostly minimal, save for a few dainty rings and earrings. The singer\u2019s hair was tousled with natural waves that cascaded down her back. Makeup highlights included bold brows, a smokey eye and a glossy lip. <\/p>\n

\n\tThe look on which Ballerini\u2019s 2026 ACM Awards<\/a> arrival carpet design was based on made its runway debut as part of Milan Fashion Week in September 2025. Curated by creative director Fausto Puglisi<\/a>, the collection swapped out Cavalli\u2019s oft colorful styles for a monochromatic approach. <\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cThe metallic runway shone like a candy wrapper, and nearly every outfit, down to the flat sandals with their curving snake details, came in a shade of gold,\u201d Samantha Conti wrote in WWD\u2019s review of the collection. <\/p>\n

\n\tHighlights from the collection included \u201cgowns dipped in rose gold sequins, or covered in gilded laurel leaves. There were shimmery red carpet<\/a> styles, too. One looked like it was covered in gold spray paint while another had a coral design picked out in shiny beads at the front. The final exit was a long, airy princess dress in muted gold tinged with silver,\u201d Conti wrote. <\/p>\n
