The 58th Annual Grammy Awards will be remembered as one of the most controversial in history. The night was overshadowed by performances riddled with technical issues, leaving the event feeling somewhat underwhelming.
Fortunately, the fashion did not disappoint, though there were some exceptions. This year’s red carpet showcased an array of elegant ensembles with far fewer outlandish styles than in previous years. Here are the celebrities who made our best-dressed list!
