The Best Looks From The Grammys 2026 Red Carpet: Chappell Roan, Justin Bieber, Bad Bunny, Wet Leg, Lady Gaga and more

At the 68th Grammy Awards, artists embrace high contrast, texture and a platform to speak out.

The Grammy Awards red carpet is frequently cited as a platform for loud expression and bold looks.

Think Grace Jones in leather by Issey Miyake, Lady Gaga arriving in an egg and the J Lo dress that led to the creation of Google Images.

Artists, understanding the value of attention, often utilise their ensembles to extend the aesthetics of their albums, to commit a major marketing stunt or simply affirm a personal brand.

Sometimes their choices have greater resonance. Last year, The New York Times’ Vanessa Friedman argued wackiness on the carpet was an expression of belief in hope and dreams amidst an LA devastated by wildfires.

For 2026, some artists chose colourful hues and tones reflective of their respective albums and eras. But for many, the carpet was a parade of black and white. Many attendees, including Justin Bieber, Billie Eilish, and Wet Leg’s Rhian Teasdale, also donned black and white badges reading ‘ICE Out’ in support of nationwide protests against detainments and violence from immigration and customs enforcement agents.
