Brightest stars at Grammys

GALA: ICONIC FASHION ON SHOW

- 

Music's brightest stars on Sunday rocked the red carpet at the Grammy Awards, bringing some high drama, serious style and, as ever, lots of skin.

While the Oscars tend to embrace a classic brand of Hollywood glamour, the Grammys are daring: some of the most iconic fashion looks have emerged at the storied gala, such as Jennifer Lopez's plunging green Versace gown in 2000.

Here's a look at what the A-listers wore in Los Angeles: Music royalty - Beyoncé finally won the Album of the Year award for the first time in her career, and she chose a glittering Schiaparelli gown for her golden moment.

A "Cowboy Carter" coded bandana motif was worked into the low-cut gown with a keyhole opening. Elbow-length gloves completed the look, and the singer wore her hair long and icy blonde.

Taylor Swift, who presented Beyoncé with her best country album award, but went home empty-handed, was dressed to impress in a sexy, sparkly red Vivienne Westwood one-shoulder mini-dress.
