Every Outfit Taylor Swift Has Worn On The Grammy Awards Red Carpet, Ranked

The Kaufmanfranco gown had lots of potential, with its off-the-shoulder neckline, all-over blue sparkles, and stunning backless bodice.

But excess fabric across its front made the dress look ill-fitting on Swift, ultimately distracting from the gown's other elements.

Swift completed the look with chunky bracelets, statement earrings, and an updo hairstyle.

Also designed by Kaufmanfranco, the sleeveless dress had a plunging V-neckline, crisscross straps beneath the chest, and a low-back bodice.

The outfit was a daring choice for Swift at the time, and her accessories gave some extra glamour to the look. She wore a pair of dangling earrings and metallic cuffs on one wrist.

But ultimately, the gown's solid dark color and shapeless silhouette made for a dress that wasn't the most memorable.

She wore a strapless corset gown in a lilac shade with leaf-shaped embroidery across its neckline and a tulle skirt.

It was designed by music executive Scott Borchetta's wife, Sandi Spika Borchetta.

Swift looked stunning in the piece, and it was a great, youthful choice for that era of her career. Still, the dress would have worked better at a prom than on a red carpet.

Swift's striking Elie Saab gown was tough to miss on the red carpet. Its blue design featured a sleeveless, double-strap top and a miniskirt wrapped with longer, pleated fabric.

The dress perfectly embodied her "1989" era, especially when paired with vibrant purple heels.

But while the outfit worked great in 2015, its high-low design and nearly neon colors look a bit outdated now.

Taylor Swift announced her 11th studio album, "The Tortured Poets Department," at the 2024 Grammys.

For the occasion, she wore a white Schiaparelli gown that nodded to both the project's overall aesthetic and an outfit featured in the "Fortnight" music video, which hadn't been released at the time.

It was strapless with a ruched bodice, dramatic skirt, long train, and thigh-high slit. She accessorized it with simple sandals, long black gloves, and layered necklaces that included a watch choker.

Swift looked stunning as always, and her outfit was undoubtedly fun — her accessories especially.

But her intentionally messy hairstyle clashed with her gown's elegance, and its loose-fitting fabric looked more excessive than dramatic.

Whereas Swift's 2015 dress was representative of its time, her 2016 outfit was fun and fashionable.

She wore a strapless orange top and high-waisted pink skirt, both designed by Versace. The latter piece was especially daring, with a slit that extended to its waistline.

Not only was the two-piece outfit unexpected for Swift, but it was also styled to perfection with diamond jewelry, strappy gold sandals, glam makeup, and a sharp bob hairstyle.

It's no surprise that the look remains iconic among Swifties today.

She strutted down the red carpet in a white gown designed by J. Mendel. It had a revealing top held together with sparkling straps and a floor-length pleated skirt cut by a thigh-high slit.

The dress itself was timeless, and her silver heels matched perfectly.

Her hairstyle — an updo with a thin braid atop her head — also resembled the styles she would wear years later while promoting her pandemic albums "Folklore" and "Evermore."

Oscar de la Renta designed her minidress — the first she'd ever worn on the Grammys red carpet — with a high neckline and long sleeves. It was also covered from top to bottom in fabric flowers.

Swift's choice of shoe — pink sandals with oversize ankle straps — wasn't the strongest, but her dress was so fun and feminine that you'd hardly notice her footwear.

Wearing Zuhair Murad, Swift was a vision in gold. Her short-sleeved gown had a high neckline, a heart-shaped cutout across the chest, and a floor-length skirt with a short train.

It was also covered in intricate sequin patterns, which shined in the lights of flashing cameras and added texture to the stunning piece.

Her flawless ensemble included a form-fitting metallic gown from Gucci and Jimmy Choo sandals beneath its long skirt.

The dress sparkled in the light thanks to its netted overlay, and her wavy ponytail perfectly complemented her glowing makeup.

She matched the red carpet in a ruby-colored minidress designed by Vivienne Westwood. The corseted piece had an asymmetrical neckline, a wrapped miniskirt, and all-over sparkles.

Swift wore it with her signature red lipstick, a $1,050 pair of 4.7-inch Casadei heels, and an assortment of ruby jewels from Lorraine Schwartz.

The accessories included statement earrings, two large rings, and a leg chain with a T initial charm and teardrop-shaped rubies.

The latter piece — which was co-designed by Swift, according to People — seemingly references a line from her song "Guilty as Sin?" in which Swift sings: "What if he's written 'mine' on my upper thigh only in my mind?"

In this case, the T likely represents her boyfriend, Travis Kelce.

Designed by Roberto Cavalli, Swift's midnight-blue outfit consisted of a silk long-sleeved crop top and a high-waisted, mermaid-style skirt.

Both handmade pieces were embellished with silver Swarovski crystals to look like "an explosion of stars all over," according to a post on the designer's Instagram page.

The outfit made for one of her strongest fashion moments of 2023.
