Grammy Menswear: A How To Guide

The Grammy Awards are Sunday night and all the clamor is about what the female music stars like Lady Gaga, Rihanna, Miley Cyrus and Madonna will show up wearing. I have to say that menswear when it comes to the red carpet is typically boring. Guys either show up in t-shirts and jean or in full on black tux. There is not really any variation. I will say that thanks to designers like Saint Laurent we have seen slight deviations from the "typical" menswear look for the red carpet. I actually pulled two pieces from Saint Laurent, a tuxedo jacket with leather lapels ($2,750) and leather slim fit pants ($3,190) for the look that I would wear if I was going to the Grammy Awards. I thought that this crisp white Givenchy shirt was a perfect edgy addition with its zipper details on the collar and cuffs ($520) as well as the black and white Alexander McQueen skull embroidered silk bow tie ($170). Finish the look with a pair of unexpected white Adieu derby shoes ($700) and you (or me) would be ready to take on the red carpet at the Grammy Awards. This would also be a perfectly complimentary look to the Grammy look I posted yesterday for a beautiful lady.

Get a Grammys Red Carpet Look

With the Grammy Awards on Sunday night I am praying for lots of major moments on the red carpet. Many of the stars will be wearing Haute Couture and that is just something that I know most people are not able to afford, don't we dream though. I so I created a slightly, yes not by much the whole look I created costs $4,910.  I picked a Christopher Kane Resort 2015 neon yellow all over lace one shoulder mini dress features an asymmetrical one-shoulder silhouette with multicolor flower applique at the neckline and hem ($3,840), a Koku "Vivia" appliqued woven clutch multicolored clutch and with a pineapple crest ($175), and a pair of Charlotte Olympia Resort 2015 sandals which feature a multi colored pom inspired by Mexico ($895) to create a perfect Grammy Girl ensemble. Throw this on with a high sleek pony and a soft pink lip and you would be ready to take on the Grammy Awards red carpet with the likes of Beyonce, Ariana Grande, and Gwen Stefani.
