From Lady Gaga dressed as a literal star to a Versace-cloaked Nicki Minaj with a priest on her arm, the Grammy Awards red carpet has played host to some of the most bizarre ensembles ever seen outside of a Heidi Klum Halloween party.

This year, the biggest night in music will see the likes of Miley Cyrus, Cardi B and Lady Gaga grace the carpet - as to how extreme they'll take their looks is all about to be revealed.

Here are our favourite looks, from the wonderfully wacky to the wildly glamorous.

Fifth Harmony breakout star Camila Cabello is pretty in pink sparkles. With a dramatic key hole back, her floor length gown with full sleeves is the perfect combination of music awards fun and red carpet glamour.

Miley Cyrus

A demure choice for Cyrus, it's the perfect take on a power suit with an oversized blazer, cropped flares and monogrammed gold heels.

Janelle Monáe

Cutting shapes with this spiky-shouldered avant-garde look, Monáe's fierce look is softened with a bejewelled golden headpiece. One of the first looks on the carpet where the creative details are truly out of the ordinary, we're pleased to see Monáe pushing the boundaries.

Ricky Martin

Veteran pop star Ricky Martin poses with one of his adorable twin sons. A nod to Miami Vice, Martin's mo and colourful shirt mixes up an otherwise classic black ensemble.

Stunning in white, newlywed Trainor's jumpsuit features a plunging neckline and detailed sparkles trimming her sleeves, belt, and dusting her expertly padded shoulders.

Talented sister duo Chloe X Halle are working the kooky end of the red carpet with their complimentary ensembles, more costume than classic gown.

Lady Gaga

She's come a long way from her meat dress and teetering celestial number: this year Gaga's hit the right note with this frilled foil gown and rock chick 'do.

Kasey Musgraves

Country music star Casey Musgraves chose a classic style with a twist in this soft tulle number. Accented with a pink rose belt and fanned neckline, it's a look that will stand the test of time.

The South Korean pop boy band taking the world by storm showed up for their very first Grammy nomination looking suave. Their clothing choice was simple, all sporting classic black suits. And while they're clearly fans of the same hair style too, they've employed various pastel shades of hair dye to add a unique touch.
