Confession: We were a little disappointed that so many stars actually followed the dress code at the Grammy Awards Sunday night. But even though it was a sea of black dresses and relatively demure looks, there were four ladies who still managed to turn our heads.
Rihanna: We did a double take when we spotted the Barbadian beauty in a wrapped-bodice Azzedine Alaïa creation, but not for the usual (read: revealing) reasons. The star was giving us mega Pon de Replay-era flashbacks between the romantic gown and long, ombré waves.
Beyoncé: She didn’t show up in a custom leather-and-lace onesie (sadly), but she did slip into something equally unexpected — a jumpsuit. The superstar went for a mod vibe in a black crepe design with white panel detailing by Osman, plus a sleek ponytail and red lips.
Adele: It’s as if she was reading our minds! After hitting the award show circuit in all black, Adele finally brightened up in a retro floral-print below-the-knee number by Valentino, paired with equally funky pumps.
Florence Welch: The singer usually opts for something flowy and ethereal, but Welch threw us a curveball, rocking a custom green Givenchy number with a high-slit and some pretty crazy dinosaur-like detailing, along with Sorellina rings.
Tell us: Which star’s style surprised you most?
