Grammys 2019 fashion: Best, worst dressed on Grammy Awards red carpet | Photos - NEWS.com.au

The 2019 Grammy Awards are held today, with hip-hop stars with Kendrick Lamar, Drake, Childish Gambino and Cardi B each scoring several major nominations.

And it’s a busy day for awards shows, with Britain’s BAFTAs taking place just hours ago — and Aussie Margot Robbie dazzled on the red carpet there.

But while the BAFTAs are all A-list elegance and refinement, music stars at the Grammys usually take a few more fashion risks — for better or worse. While we waited for stars to arrive we took a trip down memory lane at some of the most bizarre Grammys fashions from years past.

Grammys 2019: All the nominations, and winners as they’re announced

But now, to this year’s red carpet:

Little-known singer Joy Villa has a history of attention-grabbing Grammys outfits — a few years back she wore a dress emblazoned with Trump’s ‘MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN’ slogan, and another year in an anti-abortion dress complete with drawn-on fetus. This year, she’s come as Trump’s proposed Border Wall with Mexico, barbed wire and all:

The response on social media to Villa’s now-serial red carpet antics has been mixed, with many slamming her as a “troll” and asking how she gets invited back year after year despite her lack of music industry accomplishments.

Fellow Z-lister Ricky Rebel also showed his support for Trump:

To those who didn’t wear their political allegiances on their sleeve. Ashlee Simpson and husband Evan Ross. Can you believe ‘La La’ singer Ashlee Simpson is Diana Ross’s daughter-in-law? Isn’t that WILD?

Country queen Kacey Musgraves already won two awards in the pre-televised ceremony — could she take Album of the Year for her instant classic Golden Hour?

Meghan Trainor’s clearly invested heavily in double-sided tape this year:

TV personality Jeannie Mai’s catsuit seems... hard to go to the bathroom in:

Camilla Cabello’s giving us ‘sparkly snuggie’ in her dress:

Singer Saint Heart looks like a beautiful butterfly. Presumably she left her cocoon in the limo.

Think Leon Bridges’ mum sowed all these patches on for him?

Tayla Parx looks like the love child of Lisa Frank and Hello Kitty:

Ricky Martin brought his son, who is only a child but already cooler than I’ll ever be:

Diplo’s really happy to be here!!!!

Tierra Whack, how many Muppets had to die to make this coat?

Go Ben Harper for daring to venture beyond the standard male ‘black tie’ red carpet dress code:

Not sure if you’ll win a Grammy? Be like Colombian rock band Aterciopelados, and dress as one:

More to come …
