Swift kicked off the show in a custom sparkly Atelier Versace bodysuit. On night one she wore a pink and blue bodysuit and on night two she wore a blue and gold bodysuit. While wearing this she sang songs from her album 'Lover'. The look was inspired by the pastels and sparkles that the singer was known for wearing during her Lover era. 

 

 

 

 

She changed into her second look of the night to sing 'The Man' a song that is also from her 'Lover' album. This look was also custom Versace. The look consisted of a sparkly blazer inspired by the blazer she wears in the music video for the song. On night 1 she wore a silver blazer and night 2 she wore a black one. While in this look she also took the opportunity to show off her custom Louboutin boots that are rumored to have a value of $20,000. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

After that the singer took us back in time to her Fearless era, singing classics like 'You Belong with Me' and 'Love Story'. During this era Swift was known for wearing gold so its only fitting that she wear a gold Roberto Cavalli mini dress for this part of the concert. She completed the looks with a sparkly guitar similar to the one she used during the Fearless era. For night two Swift wore another gold dress with silver at the bottom. It featured a similar silhouette as the dress she wore night one, but was definitely a more mature look. 

 

 

Next she switched over to the Evermore era. The singer released 'Evermore' in 2020 amidst the pandemic so it was her first time performing it live. For this look she traded sparkles for a more laid back orange dress that was very fitting for the vibe of the album. The dress featured corset detailing and subtle gold embellishments. 

 

 

Changing up the tone Swift switched over to her Reputation era. For this era she wore a one sleeved bodysuit reminiscent of the one she wore back in 2018, and very fitting for the era. The bodysuit was black and red, two colors that were very common of Swift during this era. It also featured a snake detailing perfect for the era. 

 

 

 

Once again changing the tone she switched to her Speak Now era. She only sang one song from the era, which is 'Enchanted', but she did manage to switch to a gorgeous ballgown for this song. The ballgown was very reminiscent of the gold Valentino gown she wore during her tour in 2011. On night one she wore a gold Nicole+Felicia Couture ballgown and on night two she wore a pink ballgown. Both ballgowns looked like they were fit for royalty. 

 

 

After that she switched to her Red era, with not one but two looks. For the first look she recreated the look from her '22' music video. A sparkly t-shirt with a black bowler hat and black shorts. On night one the shirt read "A lot going on at the moment" and on night 2 the shirt read "Who's Taylor Swift anyway ew". 

 

 

For the second Red era look Swift changed to a sparkly red jacket and a matching red and black ombre one-piece shorts set underneath. This look resembled a more mature version of the ringleader costume she wore on tour in 2013. She finished off the look with a marching red guitar that was absolutely perfect for the Red era. 

 

 

On night two Swift also performed a bonus song which was 'State of Grace' from her album 'Red'. For this song she wore a green dress, that was more simple and laid back. It featured ruffle detailing and just the slightest hint of sparkle. 

 

 

Next Swift performed songs from 'Folklore' live for the first time. For this era she switched over to a softer more simple lavender dress. Perhaps the highlight of the dress was the flowy sleeves and ruffles. For night two the singer wore a similar white dress that also featured ruffles and flowy sleeves. The delicateness and lightness of both dresses was very fitting for the Folklore era. 

 

 

Switching things up once again Swift shifted into the 1989 era. For this era Swift wore a fuchsia two piece set complete with fringe and sparkles. This set was another set by Roberto Cavalli. It was very reminiscent of the sets she wore during the 1989 tour. For night two she wore a similar set, but she traded the fuschia for green. Of course she finished the look off with another pair of custom Louboutins. 

 

 

For the next outfit change she revisited her debut album with a performance of her song 'Tim McGraw'. For this she wore a magenta dress with ruffle sleeves and subtle beading. The simplicity of the dress was perfect for this acoustic performance. 

 

 

For the end of the concert Swift switched over to her most recent era the Midnights era. The first song she performed was 'Lavender Haze' so it was only fitting that the singer wear a lavender coat. She layered the coat over a sequin t-shirt dress. The fur coat was very reminiscent of the one she wears in the song's music video and perfect for the first live performance of the song. 

 

 

Swift then changed into a bedazzled Oscar De La Renta bodysuit complete with crystals. The bodysuit was in none other than a midnight blue color perfect for her Midnights era. She finished off the look with yet another pair of custom Louboutin boots in the same midnight blue color. 

 

 

She couldn't finish off the show without changing her look one more time. So for the final song of the night 'Karma' she threw on a sparkly fringe jacket overtop of the bodysuit. On night one she wore a rainbow jacket and on night two she wore a purple one. The look was the perfect look to close the show. 

 

 

 

Beauty/Fashion

1. Cara Delevingne: Not only did the actress turn heads as one of the best dressed at the Oscars, but she was also one of the best dressed at the after party. She traded her bold red gown for a much softer off-white gown. The gown is a tight mermaid silhouette that fits her perfectly and flatters her figure. It features a corset detail, which is very on trend this season and a small train. The dress is the perfect balance between feminine, elegant and trendy. 

 

 

2. Angela Bassett: Speaking of making both the Oscars best dressed list and the after party best dressed list, Angela Bassett did just that.

3. Chloe Bailey: The singer rocked the after party in a black dress with a mermaid silhouette (very fitting for the Little Mermaid's sister). The bottom of the dress features feathers and a small train, while the top of the dress features a unique neckline that attaches to the dress's one sleeve. Black is an elegant color for every event, but Chloe combined the classic color with stylish details that are perfect for the red carpet.

Hilary Duff: After attending the Elton John Aids Foundation Oscars After Party (where she was also one of the best dressed) the actress changed into yet another flawless look for the Vanity Fair Oscars After Party.

Overall her look resembled old Hollywood glamour with a modern twist.

The bralette is classic Valentino and it looks like it was made just for Florence. Over top she wore a lavender coat. The lavender color added a nice pop of color to the look and the coat itself added some drama without hiding the tiny actress too much. She kept the accessories simple by adding only a silver necklace. The look was a look that few could pull off, but Florence definitely did. 

 

 

10. Heidi Klum: It's no secret that Heidi Klum has an eye for fashion, and once again she proved that at the after party. She opted for a Tiffany blue gown with dramatic bold sleeves. Color is fun and perfect for an after party and her choice of Tiffany blue was perfect for this after party. The gown itself was simple and something that has been done before, but the addition of the dramatic sleeves added a fun element to the look. 

 

 

11. An elegant black gown never goes out of style, especially when Elizabeth Olsen is the one wearing it. A black dress can be boring when not done right, but the actress definitely knew how to style the dress so that it wouldn't be boring. The plunging neckline adds an element of drama to the look. Meanwhile her jewelry elevates the look, and adds to the elegance of the dress. Even though it is simple, the simplicity is what adds to its elegance. The look is timeless and classic, which makes it perfect for any after party.

The look was almost too much but the styling was perfect and fun for the after party. 

 

 

13. Maitreyi Ramakrishnan: Although I am a fan of color for an after party a black dress can also be fun when done correctly, and Maitreyi Ramakrishnan definitely nailed her black dress at the after party. The young star opted for a simple fitted black gown. The silver detailing on the neckline and shoulders are what really made the look. The silver detailing is fun  and added an element of glamour to the dress. The dress was a modern twist on a classic style, perfect for any after party. 

 

 

14. Camila Mendes: Versace does no wrong and Camila Mendes' after party dress was no exception. She wore a one sleeved white wrapped dress with a cutout on the left side.

15. Ariana Debose: Two-piece sets are perfect for an after party especially the set Ariana Debose wore. The pants and sleeves are sheer lace, which is very trendy right now.

VANITY FAIR OSCARS AFTER PARTY 

 

1. Kate Hudson: The after party is all about having fun, and one way to have fun is by experimenting with color. Kate Hudson did not shy away from color, opting to wear a bold pink color. Her gown featured a fitted mermaid silhouette that is very on trend right now. The best part of her look is the ruffle sleeve detail that added a bold eye-catching element to her look.

The look is the perfect balance of fun and trendy for an after party. 

 

 

 

3. Danielle Deadwyler: Usually when someone says a look has "a lot going on" it is meant as an insult, but in Danielle Deadwyler's case her after party look had a lot going on in the best way. The cheetah print mini dress features a big bow detail that sits on her right hip. She paired the dress with Tiffany blue gloves, normally I would never pair cheetah print and Tiffany blue but in this case they perfectly compliment each other. The look is fun, unexpected and absolutely perfect for any after party. 

 

 

4. Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner: No couple can pull off Louis Vuitton looks like the power couple that is Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner.

Overall the dress combined whimsical femininity and current fashion trends to create the perfect after party look. 

 

 

7. Alexandria Daddario: Perhaps this one is a bit biased, since Alexandra Daddario could wear just about anything and still look stunning, but nonetheless her classic black gown deserves a spot on this list.

Overall the look is fun and sparkly making it perfect for any after party.

She accessorized the dress with a choker featuring a matching flower, that really completed the look. 

 

 

9. Andrew Garfield: In a world where men wear black to every event, Andrew Garfield decided to change things up a bit and wear a red suit jacket. Not only are the colors refreshing, but they are also very fitting for Spider-Man himself. The pop of red adds a modern twist to a classic suit look, and is the perfect color for the spring season. Meanwhile the light blue shirt and black tie that he paired with jacket unexpectedly compliment the look very well, and add a traditional element to the overall look. 

 

 

9. Eva Longoria: A black dress always runs the risk of being boring, but in Eva Longoria's case she found a way to make a black dress fun and fashionable.

The look is fun and unique in the best way possible.

The dress featured so many fun elements such as the sequin fabric and the bows on her left hip and right shoulder. One sleeved dresses are something we've been seeing a lot, but the bold blue color and the big bow on the sleeve make this look unique and trendy.

Last night people all over the  world tuned in to to the Grammys. While the ceremony is a celebration of music, one of my favorite aspects of the show is seeing all the fashion. The looks don't stop once the cameras stop rolling though. Some of the best looks come from the after parties that take place after the ceremony. Here is my list of the Best Dressed at the 2023 Grammys after parties: 

 

Olivia Rodrigo- Last year's Best New Artist Olivia Rodrigo presented an award at this year's Grammys. She presented in a black gown that was simple yet elegant, however it's her after party look that really stole the show. She attended Universal Music Group's after party in a black sequin mini dress by 16Arlington. The dress featured a cutout and she completed her look with 5 inch heels from the brand Paris Texas. The look was the perfect balance between fashionable and comfortable for an after party and captured the young singer's style perfectly. 

 

 

Kendall Jenner- There can't be an event without a Kardashian/Jenner sister in attendance. The Grammys after party was no exception, Kendall Jenner was in attendance wearing a deep red dress by Bottega Veneta complete with matching tights, black kitten heels and nude detailing at the top of the dress. The look was perfect for a model like Kendall and blended classic pieces like kitten heels with newer fashion elements like matching a dress and  tights to mimic a catsuit look. 

 

 

 

Megan Fox- Actress Megan Fox attended the Grammys with her boyfriend Machine Gun Kelly. While supporting her boyfriend at the ceremony she wore a long gown, but for the after party she ditched the gown for a short white corset style dress complete with matching gloves and shoes. The look overall is simple, but the simplicity is the great thing about it. Both corsets and gloves are trending in fashion right now, and Megan's look features both. 

 

 

Xochitl Gomez- This young actress never fails to be the best dressed at any event. She attended the Universal Music Group after party wearing a sheer bodysuit with a cutout, leather jacket with fringe, black pumps and a red flower in her hair. The bodysuit is very reminiscent of the iconic purple bodysuit singer Selena Quintanilla once wore. The look might be a bit too bold or overdone for some people, but I personally think Xochitl was able to pull it off. Overall it is a fun and unique especially for an after party.
