The 2016 Grammy Awards had a lot of show-stopping performances, a chockful of surprises, and a number of eye-popping fashion moments. This musical affair gathered some of the most prominent names in the industry to celebrate the best in music for the past year. Typically, the Grammys serve outrageous and outlandish ensembles on the red carpet. This time, however, the outfits were relatively tame save for a few leg-baring dresses and one outstanding tribute to the late David Bowie.
Here are some of the most memorable looks from the 2016 Grammy Awards:
1. Lady Gaga
Lady Gaga stepped out in full-on Bowie mode with her orange hair, electric blue dress, and sky-high red platforms. The singer wore a custom double-breasted coatdress in blue satin from Marc Jacobs, which feature metallic details, sequin embellishments, and a thigh-high slit. She finished off her look with jewels from Lorraine Schwartz, blue eyeshadow, and towering platform shoes.
