GRAMMYs Recap: Mask Fashion and The Winners List

By Veronica Good

March 15, 2021

Over the weekend, the much-awaited 63rd Annual GRAMMY Awards brought us some must-see live performances from artists like Taylor Swift, Megan Thee Stallion, Billie Eilish, Harry Styles, DaBaby, Dua Lipa, and Cardi B as well as the answers to all of our questions about who might take home the most coveted awards, and new looks to emulate and adapt to our everyday glam. Get all of the details below.

Fashion

We’re loving the mask matching and bold, custom looks from the red carpet. Billie Eilish went all out, matching her black, pink, and gray Gucci outfit (with matching bucket hat and mask) to her nails. Hairy styles also showed up in a Gucci ensemble, rocking a plaid blazer and mask set, knit vest, and a feather boa (he ended up having three different boas throughout the night!). Taylor Swift walked the red carpet with the whimsy of her folklore and evermore albums with her in a long-sleeved floral Oscar de la Renta mini dress and mask and pink Christian Louboutin bow heels.

Other stars like Megan Thee Stallion, HAIM, Dua Lipa, Phoebe Bridgers, and Bad Bunny chose more lowkey solid-color masks to match their Grammys looks.

The Winners

Beyoncé made history by breaking the record for the most Grammy wins by a female artist with her 28th win. Leading the show with nine nominations, she took home the award for “Best R&B Performance” for “Black Parade.” Taylor Swift took home “Album of the Year” (her third!) for folklore, and Billie Eilish took home “Record of the Year” for her song “Everything I Wanted.”
