Chappell Roan, Sabrina Carpenter and FKA Twigs sport sheer, nude and neutral at the Grammy Awards

Sabrina Carpenter, FKA Twigs and Chappell Roan stepped out sporting the sheer, nude and neutral trends that seem to be dominating this awards season at the Grammys 2026.

Justin and Hailey Bieber stepped out in all-black sombre attire with the pins fixed to their chests.

Regarded as the biggest night in music, the Grammy Awards celebrate the year’s most outstanding artists, albums and performances.

Chappell Roan, 27, leaned into the barely-there trend where a nipple piercing is the statement with a look that referenced Thierry Mugler spring/summer 1998.

The Pink Pony Club singer wore a burgundy sheer draped gown over a nude bodysuit, which featured temporary ink down her chest and back. After removing the matching cape, Roan revealed a low-cut dress fastened to nipple piercings on the bodysuit.

Sabrina Carpenter, 26, meanwhile took a pared-back approach to the sheer trend in a bridalesque tiered Valentino gown with intricate beading all along the bodice. The dress, which has been in the works for three months, was created over four fittings.

Valentino’s founder, Valentino Garavani, died in January this year and numerous tributes have followed, including from Italian prime minister Giorgia Meloni, who called him an “undisputed master of style” and a legend whose legacy would continue to inspire.

Carpenter is up for six nominations but her look has already made her a winner in the fashion stakes.

FKA Twigs, 38, sported the neutral nude trend in a custom Paolo Carzana dress. She accessorised her look with metallic, vine embellishments, sky-high platform heels wrapped in tights, a book and a red peace lily.

The peace lily could be a reference to the current “Ice Out” protest movement. Singers including Bieber, Joni Mitchell and Kehlani have been spotted wearing “Ice out” and “Be Good” pins at the Awards ceremony.

Justin, 31, wore an oversized, double-breasted black tuxedo by Balenciaga while Hailey opted for a strapless black gown with sheer panelling by Alaia.

The couple reportedly returned to the event after a four-year absence where Justin was scheduled to perform at the awards ceremony.

The Biebers join several stars who have worn “Ice out” pins on red carpets this awards season.

Tyla, 24, stepped out in Dsquared2 and Paris Texas, choosing a plunging sheer dress embroidered with gold beads and Pandora jewellery.

The South African singer’s song Push 2 Start is nominated for Best African Music Performance. The star won her first Grammy in 2024.

Coco Jones, 28, wore a sheer nude corset minidress on the red carpet.

“I wanted to channel my inner love girl,” she told the Associated Press. “Give something flirty, a little romantic, that’s just the space I’m in right now.”

Meanwhile, Best New Artist nominee Olivia Dean, 26, is ascending fast on the charts and on the red carpet. The Dive singer wore a black and white feathered Chanel gown, with a sequin bodice and a full embellished skirt. The Chanel atelier reportedly took 323 hours to create the dress.
