1/8

Taylor Swift

Taylor's dress, clearly inspired by a foldable car sunshade, served as a metaphor for the light she attracts as both an artist and human being, and how she's able to bounce that light back into the world. Spotted in the windshield of a '97 Toyota Corolla, we can thank this metallic sunshade for a look that landed Taylor on Best Dressed lists across the nation.

Jane Fonda

Jane wanted something she could move in, so of course the designer's first thought was "Green Power Ranger." As expected, Jane spent most of the Grammys using her Dragon Flute to summon her zord. And she spent the remainder of her time looking fabulous.

Katharine McPhee

According to sources, Katharine had been dreaming of something that would mold to her body much like a retainer would slide perfectly into a mouth. This designer was able to take that message and translate it in an amazingly literal way. Katharine stunned in her Retainer Gown. It is a look we will not soon forget.

Rihanna

The designer knew that Rihanna wanted something that suggested the next phase of her music career. On one hand, she's showing less skin which is a more mature Rihanna than we're used to. On the other hand, she's getting in touch with her youth by wearing a repurposed canopy from Pottery Barn Kids. The result? Unparalleled beauty.

Katy Perry

The designer knew that, much like a used cotton swab, Katy's had a really big year. Thanks to her Used Q-tip Dress, she stunned on the red carpet. If you look closely, you can see some actual q-tips sewn into the fabric. Overall, a brilliant design that we'll think about every time we look in the bathroom garbage for years to come.

Gina Rodriguez

Fresh. Simple. Organic. That's how this designer kept Gina's look--inspired by Tom's of Maine Enamel Strength Toothpaste. The designer also asked us to mention that the toothpaste works okay but the deodorant doesn't. It's too chalky.

Iggy Azalea

No one really knows what her next move will be, and this dress says it all. Iggy stunned as a rook on a chess board. And much like a rook, she moved only in straight lines...to the top, that is.

Joy Villa

Joy Villa might be walking the red carpet mostly nude, but she's doing it for two great reasons. One, so that people start reusing their 6-pack packaging. And two, so that after the Grammys are over, people will remember her name.
