Few red carpet looks have shocked the Marie Claire masses quite like Chappell Roan's naked dress at the 2026 Grammy Awards, which dangled from (what else?) her nipples. But that wasn't the only Grammys surprise up Roan's sleeves (or lack thereof). Once inside the Crypto.com Arena, she traded her custom Mugler for an archival Rodarte gown.
In keeping with Grammys tradition, Roan took center stage to present Olivia Dean with the Best New Artist award. (The "Pink Pony Club" singer received it last year.) Stylist Genesis Webb sourced Rodarte's archives for a single-shoulder gown fit for a Grecian goddess and TV broadcast guidelines. Smoky gray, partially-sheer chiffon draped from one shoulder, across her bust, and down her legs. In addition to distressed floral appliqués atop her shoulder and waist, an asymmetrical cutout crossed her chest. At first glance, fans might think it was simple for the red carpet risk-taker, but she was just giving TV viewers a breather after her jaw-dropping Mugler moment.
