A range of bold looks have dominated the 64th Grammy Awards red carpet including exotic prints, trailing gowns and studded detailing.

Stars of the music industry spared no expense with their eye-catching looks on Sunday ahead of the ceremony, which is taking place in Las Vegas for the first time.

Doja Cat wore an off-the-shoulder mint Versace gown and a matching corseted bodysuit with jewelled detail.

The rapper completed the look with layers of diamond jewellery from Samer Halimeh New York and Jacob & Co, and a crystal covered JBL speaker turned into a bag.

Montero singer Lil Nas X, known for his head-turning outfits, did not disappoint in a studded all-white Balmain jumpsuit with platformed white shoes.

Jewels outlined the suit’s armour-like pattern and colourful butterflies were embroidered onto the chest and sleeves.

The rapper said the ensemble had taken “weeks” to come together.

One week on from the Oscars, Billie Eilish opted again for an all-black ensemble but chose an oversized caped-jacket with a floor length dress.

She wore black boots with chunky soles and retro sunglasses to complete the look.

Megan Thee Stallion stood out in her exotic animal print dress with a long, gold-edged slit which extended up to her thigh.

The WAP rapper completed her look with chunky gold bracelets and matching earrings, and her signature winged eyeliner.

St Vincent wore a sprawling coral-reef inspired gown with puffed pink edging and a statement train.

Country legend Carrie Underwood also opted for a long gown, showcasing a flowing golden number complete with a crystal bodice.

As well as being nominated for two Grammys this year, the singer will also take to the stage to perform.

Teen superstar Olivia Rodrigo wore an off-shoulder black pencil gown with glittering pink detail.

With seven nominations, the 19 year-old is one of the evening’s top nominees alongside Eilish.

Music power couple Maren Morris and Ryan Hurd both showcased simple yet elegant looks, as they matched their brown-toned outfits.

Maren sported a snakeskin patterned cocktail dress that opened at the front to reveal a lacy black bralette, while Hurd went for a sandy-coloured suit and matching tasselled loafers.

Country star Brandi Carlile sported a beaded multi-coloured blazer and black suit pants.
