The Grammys red carpet appearances can become so overwhelming that it’s definitely hard to see the small details that have a deeper meaning. Perhaps it’s because of their size or you’re just probably focused on the face of your idol, but there a few tiny features that you may have missed during this year’s event:
Maggie Rogers
The Light On singer walked the red carpet in a black vintage Chanel dress that’s adorned with gold stars, but it wasn’t just her outfit that turned heads at the event. Maggie Rogers’ choice of accessory was what particularly got everyone talking.
No, the 25-year-old, who was nominated as the best emerging artist, didn’t pair her gorgeous attire with a pouch. Maggie instead brought a chic water bottle with her because who wants to be dehydrated in an event filled with so many equally good musicians, right?
Kidding aside, Maggie revealed that it was actually a vintage water bottle from the luxury brand, too. The symbolism is far more meaningful: it highlights how sustainability is crucial and underlines the reality of climate change.
Billie Eilish
The multiple Grammy award-winning singer making her signature style, which is usually matched with an out-of-this-world manicure, a fashion statement is not new. This year’s event was no exception: Billie Eilish donned an oversized Gucci black suit that was emblazoned with the logo and a matching pair of gloves.
Her neon green hair may have magnetized your eyes that’s why you probably missed her nails. If you looked closer, you should have seen that her manicure had the same Gucci print as her outfit (talk about being on brand!).
John Legend
OK, this one’s debatable: fashion gurus have probably spotted that John Legend’s suit was different from the typical ones, specifically, one side was longer than the other. Those who didn’t notice this may be because his top was in the same color as his pants.
Priyanka Chopra
The Quantico star stole the scene with her super low neckline but while people were probably distracted, they didn’t see her manicure that had a written 24 in one nail. Priyanka Chopra, who attended the event with her hunk husband, didn’t reveal the true meaning of the design but fans guessed that it was a tribute to the late NBA player Kobe Bryant, who was killed in a tragic helicopter crash.
The Grammys happened on the same day the basketball player, whose jersey number was 24 when he was still playing for the Los Angeles Lakers, his daughter Gigi, and seven others died.
