Just when you start to tire of Awards Season, along comes the Grammys. The music industry's biggest night tends to be a whole lot looser than the Globes or the Oscars, and that’s why we love it. Remember when Lady Gaga incubated her way down the red carpet in a giant plastic egg back in 2011? That was good TV! This year, if the antics seemed more muted, there were still some moments worth mentioning. *Katy Perry* played it relatively low-key—for her, at least—in a straight-from-couture number by Valentino embroidered in musical notes (La Traviata, in case you were wondering). *Taylor Swift* looked every inch the grown-up in glittering Gucci, even if she lost to country upstart *Kacey Musgraves*. And *Beyoncé * made the little-known designer Michael Costello a household name overnight with her white lace gown. Not like a virgin at all. But the best-dressed prize goes to Daft Punk’s *Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo* and *Thomas Bangalter*, who won Album and Record of the Year. Their tuxes? Saint Laurent by Hedi Slimane. And though their collaborator *Pharrell Williams* took some knocks on social media for his Vivienne Westwood buffalo hat, we applaud the fact that he took a risk. After all, if we wanted to see celebrities play it safe, we'd watch the Oscars.—Nicole Phelps
