With the 63rd Annual Grammy Awards airing on Sunday sans the extravagant red carpet we’ve grown accustomed to over the years, we thought we’d take a trip down memory lane. Ahead of Sunday night’s festivities, join in as we count off our all-time best-dressed looks from the days when red carpets didn’t take place primarily on Instagram.
Ariana Grande, 2020

Billy Porter, 2020
Billy Porter's remote-controlled, rhinestone hat was enough to get him on this list. The rest of his teal-and-silver Baja East look was just icing on the cake. Photo: Axelle/Bauer-Griffin/FilmMagic.

Taylor Swift, 2016
Normally a high-low, two-piece look wouldn't be our choice for a red carpet, but Taylor Swift's Versace look was equal parts glamorous and fresh.Photo: Axelle/Bauer-Griffin/FilmMagic.
Rihanna, 2015
In our book, Rihanna can do no wrong. But while everything the singer-designer does is a win for us, this bubblegum pink Giambattista Valli gown is a step above the rest. Photo: Jon Kopaloff/FilmMagic.
Destiny's Child, 2001
