Kacey Musgraves, Lainey Wilson, Luke Bryan and more perform in style to celebrate country music’s biggest night

The 2024 CMA Awards will serve as a stage for some of country music’s most spectacular bands.

With Luke Bryan, Peyton Manning and Lainey Wilson co-hosting the event, this year’s awards ceremony promised a series of standout sartorial moments. Ahead of the annual bash, which features country musicians like Jelly Roll, Shaboozey and Kelsea Ballerini, the stars showed off their dazzling looks on the red carpet outside Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena.

In 2007, 17-year-old Taylor Swift, who took home the award for New Artist of the Year, looked dreamy in a shiny gold dress. Canadian country sensation Shania Twain wore a flowing spaghetti-strap dress with silver accents to the 2003 awards ceremony, while the Chicks put on a sparkling show in coordinating beaded ensembles at the 2000 ceremony.

Country music’s biggest night often inspires a spectacular fashion show. Here are some of the most memorable looks from the 2024 awards show.

Kacey Musgraves

Kacey Musgraves once again proved she’s a fashionable force to be reckoned with from the moment she arrived on the CMA 2024 red carpet. The “deeper well” singer stunned in a periwinkle dress with a bustier bodice, feathered sleeves and crystal teardrop embellishments. This year Musgraves has a chance to win three prizes.
