Just look at Beyoncé’s reaction to winning album of the year at the 2025 Grammys. Let’s take a look at what our favorite artists and designers had in store for us this year.

It’s up for debate whether or not her performance was up to par, but what we are certain about is that the custom Alaïa Addison Rae wore on the carpet was spectacular.

The 2026 Best New Artist, Olivia Dean, wears a magnificent Chanel gown. Made for her by none other than Mattieu Blazy, Chanel’s newest creative director, who has made a divine entrance into the house, Oliva wins not only best new artist but best dressed in my book.

Last but not least, Harry Styles made his long-awaited comeback. As a massive Harrie myself, two things crossed my mind when he walked on stage to present album of the year. First, “Oh my god, he really is here,” and second, “Is that look from Jonathan Anderson’s debut Dior show?” Jonathan Anderson, Dior’s newest creative director, marked his debut at the 2025 Paris Fashion Week, presenting the Dior Spring/Summer 26 collection. His collection was so memorable that I immediately recognized it by the playful shoes and the sparkly jacket, tailored to perfection in true Johnathan Anderson fashion. So memorable it made me forget Harry Styles was on stage for just one second.
As award show season remains among us, what surprises do you think these designers and celebrities have in store for us next?
