The 2026 Grammy Awards took place on Sunday, Feb. 1, and as much as everyone enjoys talking about the award winners each year, we’re just as excited about the red carpet looks. Specifically, we love seeing what our favorite Black celebrities wear. In recent years, the Grammys have given us some unforgettable styles. But looking further back, there are SO many iconic fashion moments in awards season history that have come from Black artists.
From ’90s fashion icons to the innovative styles we’ve seen over the last decade, Black celebrities have continued to dominate the red carpets at awards season. That’s why we decided to gather all of the best looks from the ’70s until now that truly deserve their own moment.
