The prestigious Grammys, which is the most significant musical award show of the year, has a rich history of 64 years. As the 64th Grammys are just a few days away, we are excited to announce that we will be attending the event to do the hair and makeup of some of the biggest celebrities in the music industry!
To celebrate this glamorous event, we have put together a list of ten of the most iconic Grammy looks of all time. From daring fashion statements to timeless beauty looks, these celebrities have left a lasting impression on the music industry with their stunning appearances on the Grammy red carpet. Whether you are a music lover or a fashion enthusiast, you won't want to miss out on these unforgettable moments in Grammy history.
Let's begin this list with Megan Thee Stallion, the three-time Grammy award winner and heartthrob of the century. In 2022, Megan graced the red carpet with her smokey eye was the highlight of her look, which was accentuated with some graphic liner, making her eyes look even more dramatic. She opted for a brown-lined glossy lip, which perfectly complemented her eye makeup.. Along with her striking makeup, she wore an off-the-shoulder leopard print gown by Roberto Cavalli that featured a thigh-high slit. Megan's fashion choices have always been bold and fearless, making her stand out from the crowd.
Let's take a moment to reflect on a timeless look by Cher at the 1974 Grammy Awards. Cher was always ahead of her time in the makeup and wardrobe department, and this occasion was no different. She wore sparkling blue and purple eyeshadow, paired with the most doll-like lashes. Cher walked the red carpet in an iconic white bikini-style top, adorned with a sequin butterfly. She completed the look with a matching pastel butterfly accessory in her hair and a sheer shawl.
Many of us vividly recall the moment when pop sensation Ariana Grande graced the 2020 Grammy's red carpet, flaunting her signature pout and the highest ponytail that photographers had ever seen. She sported a warm eyeshadow look and her trademark thick winged liner, resembling a real-life Cinderella in her elegant Giambattista Valli gown.
Dua Lipa, the talented Pop Princess, graced the 2021 Grammy's red carpet in a stunning sheer gown designed by Versace that glistened like stars in the sky. Her eye-catching look was further accentuated by her choice of sparkling purple eyeshadow that added a bold pop of color to her overall appearance. The perfect combination of her dress and makeup made her stand out as a true fashion icon.
This was a look for this history book. At the 2000's Grammy's, JLO would change the internet forever with her plunging Versace gown simply holding on with fashion tape. The plunging neckline of the dress caused a stir and made her the first person to "break the internet." The dress became so popular that a large number of people searched for her images on Google, which led to the creation of Google Image Search. Yep, you can thank Jennifer Lopez for Google Image Search.
One of my personal favorite looks is the one that the mother of soul and 18-time Grammy award-winning legend, Aretha Franklin, sported in the 70s. She would step out in a truly classy style, wearing a stunning white sparkling dress, paired with shimmering blue eyeshadow and thin pencil brows. She was an icon without even trying.
Doja Cat is known for her bold and daring fashion choices. At the 2021 Grammy's, she sported a mullet hairstyle and intense smokey eye makeup that made her look like Morticia Addams, but as the lead guitarist of a rock band. Her low-cut, feathered gown tastefully showcased her figure, leaving a lasting impact on the audience and photographers.
Olivia Rodrigo appeared at the Grammys for the first time wearing a custom Vivienne Westwood Couture bodycon dress adorned with pink crystal embellishments. To complement her outfit, she accessorized with chokers and opera gloves, giving off a vampy '90s vibe. Glossier was responsible for Olivia's makeup, which included dusty rose-stained lips, dramatic sharp liner, and glowing skin. All these elements came together to create an iconic and stunning look.
Cardi B will always make an entrance and the 2023 Grammys were no exception. The rapper showed up in an abstract electric blue gown pulled from Gaurav Gupta's spring/summer 2023 haute couture runway. The blue accents on her eyeliner are a fun detail that just instantly catches your attention, keeping your focus on her. Her boldly lined lips are also a great touch that just ties this look together beautifully.
Lady Gaga made another historic debut at the Grammys wearing an Armani Privé dress. She accessorized with an orbit-encrusted dress that showcased her body and carried a wand to add her signature touch. Her makeup was bold and daring, especially for 2010, with a striking dark brow and emerald green eyeshadow that made her eyes stand out. She completed the look with a classic bubblegum pink frosty lip. There's no doubt that Gaga left a lasting impression with her outfit and makeup at the event.
